Autobase Aichi rounds off a week of reviews with the latest wave of deluxe Generations Siege figures by saving one of the most anticipated for last; Ironhide! The rough and tough Autobot is shown here in robot and vehicle mode. We we also get an idea how he scales in the line compared to his wave-mate, Prowl. Ironhide is looking pretty large for a deluxe. So don’t let the deluxe packaging fool you. Ironhide appears ready to stare down some of the biggest Decepticons this side of Iacon. Also shown is Ironhide with added weaponizer armor comprised of weapon components from Wave 2’s Six Gun.
You can view all the images, as well as a video review, after the jump. Check out our Generations news category to view the other in-hand images of Wave 2 Deluxe Siege figures as well as the rumored exclusive, Greenlight.

Can't wait. Having him and Chromia in the same wave together's just icing on the cake. I do hope Walgreens Ratchet comes out well.

I cannot wait for this guy. The only deluxe I have is SIDESWIPE that my wife found all alone in a Target at Christmas time. Ready for these to be on the shelves.

this is the basic g1 scale and what I think they are basing the siege line off
I think he looks great and this will be my ironhide as I replaced papa smurf with the combiner wars, but the ratchet will have to do a lot to beat the unite warriors one I got with skyreign

I’m sure people are gonna fan mode a better one anyway. Perhaps even a better cassette player/boombox.

Though it didn't show exactly the same shape as he does in the first episode. But I want to see it. And if he can I will buy him.

It's already been confirmed he can do the lamppost. It was seen painted gunmetal in one of the Siege displays awhile back.

Soundwave better be able to do the " cybertronian lamppost" then he is an instant buy. Other than that I already got the masterpiece so not in a immediate need for him.

There are tons of vans driving around the world. DHL and UPS have plenty. I don't think his mode is that much more alien. Matter of fact non are. Not as alien as FOC had to offer. Since most of these vehicles have transparent windscreens. Only prowl has distinct alien marking behind the windscreen part. And he is seen as lackluster.

Finally, a good Ironhide figure that isn't a combiner repaint. My one issue with this is that, unlike Optimus, Sideswipe, and Prowl, this vehicle mode looks quite a bit more alien, whereas the other Autobots seem to work well as either an Earth mode or Cybertronian mode. Unless I'm off here. Are there any real vehicles that this figure resembles?

Now is it this looks like a grate transformers toy & why do the rest look like happy meal toys?
PrimalFury
Ironhide looks great, a must have figure most definatley.
Please go over and beg TonTon to review WFC Leader OP next! although id be satisfied with Soundwave
Chaosbringer
Starscream must be days from showing up….

Ooh. Nice

Hound looks like he'll be turned into Cybertron defense Hot Shot. I love Hot Shot as a character so delighted to see him return.
Digger
Lol. That is the necessity of every ironhide figure.
Nemisispath
Well, Hound's boxart has him with Cybertron Defense Hot Shot's head. Could very well get a Cybertron homage.

I might paint the inside of the windshield silver when i get mine. They did a good job themselves with the silver paint on the inside of the chest in an attempt to hide its hollowness, but it just doesn't quite cut it.
Digger
Is it me or do the wheels look exactly like the wheels on Titans Return Kup?
snoopcow
Or remove his head for a heroicly nonsensical toy and 86 movie homage.

Jazz the bot always meeting the short end of the stick. Either a shelfwarming piece of mess. " looking at you FOC Jazz". Or a total sidecharacter "Yes you movie Jazz" or a late wave leftover PotP Jazz.
Sunstreaker is a given. So is Red Alert. Ratchet from Ironhide and maybe even a Kup redeco…who knows. Also Prowl and his brother seems like a logical choice. I am curious what they will do with Hounds mold.
What I hope we get is Wheeljack and Bumblebee from the first episode…that look.
