Masterpiece Ironhide

[MEEEGGGAAATTTRRROOONNN!!!]

Looking over the Weibo pics, I just noticed that the owner removed the hip flaps on some of the shots:

Mixed feelings, no point saying good or bad as I already bought him. I just hope he has brighter reds and he is better in transformation than tracks.

The sculpt wise he looks okay, is funny how I loved this over ratchet until this stage I now like ratchet more.

White hides the details better so yeah i like ratchet better too.

Rocket pack is cute. Articulation looks good.

The photo with the side skirts removed does wonders for the proportions. No idea if it's technically possible but i think TT should have thought of something to shift the side skirts to the back.

all I can say is im happy he is right on schedule for a new mold. cheers to Takara Tomy

In hand pics are looking pretty good. Like others I'm more keen for Ratchet but Ironhide has me looking forward to receiving him

Like it, want it, getting it

a lot of ppl are going to be removing those hip flaps i think, it looks so much better without them

Figure looks good, despite looking like an out of shape Roman soldier.

Yep, this makes me happy to display in robot mode, negating my earlier comment (edit. Which i just realised i said id display in robot when i meant vehicle).

Thing is I realised this morning I hadnt actually preordered anywhere... d'oh

My Mrs messaged the guy in Vietnam who has been posting pics.. He would like 2500000 Vietnamese dong for one... So about $157 Aud before postage... I wanted to get one abit early... But not at like $200 including postage
