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.

Seeking the Following:
- CW Brawl
- Earthrise Runabout
- Earthrise Thrust
Yep, same as you guys
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 selected "other". I did so because I'm not sure it matters all that much. The variations in the pics in the first post are animation inconsistencies, rather than deliberate interpretations of the characters. I suspect that whatever comes out will be about right, based on the MP cars we have so far, which don't seem especially thick or thin to me. A happy medium?

I'm going with 'thick', because I recall seeing the thick helmets more often, thus making them 'definitive' in my opinion (another example is Grimlock's robot head in SOS Dinobots and Heavy Metal War - the 'rounded' head is only seen in a few episodes, as opposed to the 'angular' head).
Anyone know which version of the Ironhide/Ratchet helmet appeared more often in the cartoon?
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 would much rather see flat faces behind windscreens than any of the above.
