This figure along with iGear Ratchet are next on my list of figs I MUST add to my collection. The Universe Ironhide I have now just won't due when compared to this work of art right here. You won't find find a better G1 Ironhide representation anywhere. This figure comes with a slew of accessories. So you can arm your "war veteran" to the teeth or in any other way you see fit. Also being a bit tall on the Voyager end (7.5") means he'll scale well with Classics (around Classics Prime height) or a Masterpiece collection. Don't snooze on this one. Or his mate Ratchet. I predict aftermarket prices are going to hit around $175 or so with these figures once they do sell out. Definitely want to get in now if you can.

I've included some pictures for scale reference. You'll see both of these figs from iGear next to the new MP Sideswipe. As well as a group shot with some Classics figures (along with iGear Faith Leader) in the last picture.

Nice but, cost a bomb to buy him and the Ratchet one, besides, I recommend as a alteriatve to get TFP Kup and TFP Arms Micron Ironhide and trade their weapons to get a bad ass Ironhide if you don't want to fork out for the weapons Specialist, as for Ratchet, go with TFP, that's the best Ratchet figure I encountered of official stuff!

I think I'm getting off the Prime toy train. I currently have my collection up for sale right now. If they don't sell by the years end, I'll be returing them all to the store (except the Takara items) and getting my money back. And will be using said money for iGear Ratchet, Ironhide and Faith Leader.

If you got any of the FE Prime toys, take my advice and store those away, they'll be worth more in a few years because they aren't as a abundant as the RID prime toys! ;)
