Transformers Studio Series 86-17 Voyager Ironhide Figure - The Battle for Cybertron, from 8 Years, 16.5 cm, Multi

Satisfied 😂

Absolutely brilliant Transformer. Only the first transforming step from van to robot is a bit tricky.

Great figure, solid and the original van version alt mode.

Ironhide toys have had a hard evolution. The initial toy was nothing like the 80s show. The War For Cybertron line addressed many issues, but when the earthrise vanette variation came out, Ironhide's feet were sticking off the back of the vehicle. Prior to this figure, if you wanted a cartoon accurate Ironhide, you were going to have to pay for a masterpiece grade version that was great, but not in scale with the other toys(unless you collected a lot of masterpiece grade versions). Here we finally have Ironhide done right. Ironhide is about as perfect as I can picture him being in robot mode. Articulation means that you can pose this dynamic, energetic, and active character as he appeared in the show and movie without compromise. He dual wields his pistols like the true gunfighter he is. Ironhide looks very good as a vanette. No "partsforming" is involved in the transformation. The pistols can be stored either on the bottom of the van or pegged into the top. The only minor issue concerns molded details on the van that have no color. The strip is molded on the side, but has no color. The back of the vanette has a solid red "window" while all the other windows on the vanette are transparant blue plastic. The rear bumper is at least painted silver. I may end up purchasing a third party stick sheet to address this issue, but this is really the only issue I see with the figure. Overall a great figure. Fans of the 80s show will be extremely pleased that this character finally got a worthy treatment at a great price point.
