    i, like everyone, am looking forward to animated ironhide, but there is just something about his headsculpt when i see it i just shake my head in disappointment, it isn't about the headsculpt itself, it is the line of mold flash across his chin, every single specimen i have seen has the same mold flash line across his chin where his helmet ends and you see his chin below....

    does it bother anyone else? or am i just batshit insane?

    The only thing about the headsculpt I don't like is the mouth. I like the grin, I just think it's too high up on the face; it kinda looks more like a scar across the cheekbone than a mouth.

    I'd have to have one before I decide whether I have a problem with it or not.

    Well you probably are bat shit insane but it bugs me too.

    What I don't like is the mouth. For some reason, the only botcon pic I saw of him made it seem like he didn't have a mouth. It made him look bad ass. Well at least to me. Now, I believe to have proven to be more bat shit insane then you. Lol.

    His mouth was that high on the show, so it's accurate.

    I really like it. The smug smirk works well for him.

    I'm with you guard convoy, it is a little odd, but I think it can be fixed.

    Both of the new guys have funny looking heads, but I don't care, I just want them to be in stock.
