    Default Which heads would you like to see for MP Ratchet & Ironhide?

    Hypothetical question: If Takara TOMY were to produce Masterpiece Ratchet & Ironhide, which head would you like to see them create for which toy? The G1 cartoon had two different head types for both characters; one with a "thin" helmet, and another with a "thick" helmet.



    I'd personally like to see Ratchet made with the "thin" helmet and Ironhide with a "thick" helmet type. It would help to make Ratchet and Ironhide look more distinct from each other (akin to what was done for the MP Nissans), and the "thick" helmet style looks more suitable to a fighter type like Ironhide IMHO.

    I too like the more rounded head for Ratchet. The thick one suits Ironhide more IMO. Honestly, I always thought they were that way until you pointed it out.

    They could do what I Gear did and give you 2 heads so you can pick and chose

    I think the thicker helm gives a more 'mature'/'seasoned' look.

    I reckon you're onto something there man, as I feel much the same as the more slender helms definitely give-off a more youthful appearance - Hence I'm going with "Thick".

    Or alternatively something similar to what they're doing w/ MP Bumblebee and have switchable helmets. Although I'd rather see resources focused towards other gimmicks & accessories for each toy.

    Another reason why I think it suits Ironhide more, who was originally portrayed as the "old timer" of the Autobots before Kup came along. Ratchet not so much though (that's more of an Animated thing).

    I don't like the round 'motorbike' helmets. Thick, chunky heads please.

    I actually want to respect all, and hence why.
