Premium Ironhide Review (with Pseudo Comparisons)

[Pulse]

Very nice extra paint applications.

I totally agree with you kup, the whole fact that they released a "Premium" line with much better paint just stinks of trying to get people like us to pick up the same figure twice. I point the finger of blame squarely at A. Archer.

The big Autobot sigil on the bonnet looks bad to me because he never had that in the movie. It's otherwise a nice looking repaint, but not nice enough for me to want to replace my existing Voyager Ironhide with one.

Gah! Can someone tell me why all of a sudden I need two more Voyager Ironhides?

At least we're seeing moulds reused with _improved_ colour schemes.

Unlike say, Universe Razorclaw, where they removed the vacuum metalised chrome, left the Maximal symbol in place, doused poor Tigerhawk in grape purple and sold him for the same price.

I've always said that Universe Depth Charge looks like he was painted with vomit. I recently read that Archer reckons that he chose Universe Depth Charge's colours as a tribute to Boba Fett's Slave-1...



As Dr Evil would say, "Rrriiiiiiigggghhhhttt..."

Aaron Archer is a &*^%tard

Only my love of the Ironhide figure is making me want to nab the premium version, but if it costs more than standard Voyager price, the want will decline sharply with every extra $1 they want to charge us. I too do not want to encourage this to happen in later lines as well.

The best comment I have heard about Universe Depth Charge was that he was painted with Homer Simpson's make-up gun.
