The Pooth Is Strong With This One | #Transformers Energon Ironhide Review

Just sharing trivia:
The brown on this and other Energon figures were the result of Hasbro trying to avoid using grey on their figures at the time
But why hasbro avoided the grey plastic?
@@kwymd they thought it looked boring
@1UpWeeb they thought it looked boring or plain
@@kwymd they thought it looked cheap and I’m guessing they wanted to avoid gold plastic
@@Cdr2002 The only time it lead to structural issues was with Hoist/Grapple. as the Silver used on the Micron Legend Grapple was translucent, and therefore brittle.
One of the things I always have credit to the figures and character in the Unicron Trilogy was that the designs on the toys matched well visually with the on screen versions, like a one to one recreation of sorts not including articulation, unlike most other toys from the franchise that had difficulty matching up
The reason (i think) was that they used the actual 3d files from the toys for the show.
This went to extremes in Cybertron. Optimus has a lever on the back of his head, and Overhaul’s Cyber Key weapon looks for all the world like a toy missile!
Cybertron Evac has a long red rod sticking out of the side of the upper part of his helicopter mode.
It's the lever that activates his spinning rotor gimmick on the toy, faithfully recreated in the animation model.
I feel like th posing on Ironhide wasn't actually as bad as it looks. I believe you can fake a pivot because of the way the legs transform when he's powerlinking as a submissive and bree- bottom. You can easily use those hinges to work better leg posability.
Especially with cybertron. Making them cg was prob the best move for having 1:1 model accuracy. Even seeing the robot bits stick out in their vehicle modes
I think the Dreamwave Comic version of Transformers Energon was better then the show version. Especially because Ironhide wasn’t Annoying in the comic like he was in the show.
I 100% agree! Never liked the Unicron trilogy shows, but I loved the comics for the trilogy!
@@DarkScorch I didn’t say I didn’t like the shows both the comics and the show both were better in some areas then others part of both versions of the series but I always like the comics because how they different they were to the show and I think both could have benefited from influence each other in all honesty.
@@silencerzero7730 I know you didn’t say you didn’t like the shows. I was agreeing with you, and then adding my thoughts on it…
Tbh, anything would be better than the Energon cartoon.
@@loganthe9f51 True that just wish Dreamwave didn’t go bankrupt before they could complete they’re version of series.
Screwy proportion combo modes are always fun. The Unicron Trilogy has some pretty solid toys overall, and while they lack posing they can feel REALLY good in hand. Any shortcomings of their shows can be handled with just liking the feel and giving them adventures around the house.
I liked the chunky look of Armada and Energon. My 2nd favorite generation design. The first being the old RID. Those were peak Transformers to me
Same, even the 2001 RID was way cooler than the Prime ripoff of RID in 2015.
i used to be on the train of “haha energon is so bad, ironhide sucks ass” but then i actually watched the show and it’s not the worst thing ever, i actually ended up liking ironhide, even if the performance could be a bit grating. anyways, if you ever need to pawn this lad off, i get first dibs, i really like this boy
Ita still pretty bad though
@@umairashraf5167middle of the road, plenty of worse shows from transformers
This Ironhide compensates for his predecessor's headless robot mode by having his robot head visible in both modes.
honestly I dig how this ironhide totally runs with the exposed head. I kind of want to see him return someday in generations, though I have no idea how that's supposed to happen. the last version of him was a t30 roadbuster recolor, so maybe a new roadbuster toy could be a starting point
Fun fact: in japan they named this guy in superlink.......roadbuster
Yes, the energon toys were pretty good, actually. I recently was lucky enough to find and be able to buy a dirty cheap Divebomb, a toy I always wanted as a kid, and it's fantastic in both modes, all things considered. I love how they designed the animal robots in energon, instead of just making a robotic version of it, they added nice touches, like B. Ravage's mace tail, and the feather-like wings on Divebomb, or Scorponok's scorpion mode, which is, actually, a construction vehicle in the shape of a scorpion. I love how these three look, and I hope that I can find the other two terrorcons, some day. The only thing bad about it was that I never had two autobots of the same class to properly powerlinx them. Just like in your case, I only have 1 Mega and 1 Combat class.
Execution was Energon's greatest downfall, I've seen a video talking about all the plot points and character beats that are actually brought up in energon and how elaborate and well-rounded a properly executed cartoon would have or could have been, and it makes me upset, genuinely, that it turned out so shit
Energon to me is better than most of G1 or Prime. Flaws are subjective. I for one can't stand most of Cybertron, especially the first ten episodes, despite many saying it's somehow the best of the trilogy. I find the clunky Energon CGI charming, while Cybertron and RID 2015 look ugly to me.
We are strong
We have pride
We are Team Ironhide!
Ngl though that episode was great character development for him.
How many TF shows have the guts to kill so many Autobots?
I recognize Energon is plagued with mistakes, but you're right, fun is one of the few positive things they accomplished. I specially respect Hot Shot for having pants mode, shirt mode, robot mode, car mode, AND Alternators features (opening doors and an opening hood with an engine)
Going from Energon Ironhide to Bayverse was quite awesome as a kid.
Energon was the one that introduced me to Transformers and my first ever transformer toy was Energon Mirage. I was 7 when my dad got it for me.
Great video and review!
It's Ironhide so...
"BUT PRAHME!!"
This Ironhide says “KICKER!”
I honestly love his head just sitting on top. It was pretty cool to me when he and kicker were driving around and he was able to just speak and look around. It kinda feels like a plus for a species that can turn into vehicles for some reason
Why does Hasbro not use spring loaded missiles anymore?
It's too expensive for them to do.
I know! I wish they did too
Tbh i perfer presure missles
I miss gimmicks in general.
@@SteamTrainTy Yeah me too. It's sad too because we probably never will get a Godmaster gimmick when they release more Masterforce toys, or Pretender gimmicks for that matter
I don’t really think blue necessarily works that well for Ironhide. If anything, I’d say either keep the original red and yellow, or the bay film Ironhide’s Black and silver. And tbh, I’m a bit more of a movieverse Ironhide fan than G1. Still like both though.
Edit: but that combination with Hot Shot, and Ironhide as the pants, that’s just funny!
True, it's a good thing I was always more of a Beast Wars person since I also find that show alot cooler than G1 :)
loving the vangelus style transformation segment
Love your reviews! Best part of my day
Likewise
These old chunky transformers really gives me so many memories of the ones I use to have, I started collecting when I was younger and my very first one was 2007 Deluxe Brawl because it was during the days of the 2007 toyline and I remember at dollar general seeing some of these energon figures pretty nostalgic just finding these and it makes me want to recollect all my old figures again I got some of the more modern figures just most are decepticons and I think I need to really relive my past
That old plastic tho 😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫
Now I want to know what it looks like with two ironhides stuck together, why have I never thought of that before, combining two of the same energon figure
I remember seeing the GIANT one they had in store that thought “Who would actually want one this big…?”
Ah the unicron trilogy, back when you could get a large, fairly sturdy toy for a good price. Heck, supreme class primus originally retailed for $50usd... that price nowadays gets you only a glorified deluxe class figure labeled as a leader class..
As someone who was introduced to the franchise by this show and the movies I agree that it wasn’t the best show but the nostalgia is still there for it
Honestly this guy has shown up so many times on this channel I am surprised you are only now reviewing it
With an upgrade, it´d be a cool design.
God, I fucking love Energon.
I want an update of this guy in Legacy
I swear I had a Decepticon version of this mood as a kid.
I was 4 years old when this came out, im gonna be 23 in October
Out of scale with everything. Looks like a Playschool jeep. Permapooth. Sturdy. Ratchetty, imposing duocon.
This "garbage toy" is a lot of fun!
I got this and Energon Jetfire in a 2-pack in 2004 or 2005 for $20 USD. So basically, a buy one get one free. Best $20 I've ever spent on Transformers.
POOTH!!!!!!!!
I honestly have held back for so long on getting energon figures not because they are bad, but because I can't get just one of anything. I need doubles of at least one of every mold for double combinations, and just seeing the prices jump since I first looked about 6 years ago makes me kick myself for not getting them then, but still, Ironhide a chonky boy that does nothing wrong, just get another Ironhide, Jetfire, or Cliffjumper, or maybe any of their repaints, and call it a day, same with Hot Shot and any of the smaller ones to make it look not bad combined
Man, I'd totally go with a dark and gritty reboot of
the Unicron Trilogy right now..
Heck, even I think they should also hire Bang Zoom! voice actors for it too.
Wouldn’t be as good as the Canadian talent
If I remember correctly he wasn’t called Ironhide in SuperLink which what the show was called in Japan where it was made he was called RoadBuster so it seems like they think of a name that was actually fitting of the Character that this guy was in the show that would have been a stain on someone else’s legacy no matter what way you spin it because the show.
Fun fact: He’s voiced by the same guy who voiced Ed from Ed Edd n Eddy
I honestly wouldn’t mind an Energon Ironhide in Legacy I think with modern articulation you would have a pretty decent figure also Energon hasn’t had representation yet it would be neat if they could power link but I doubt they’d do that
I love and own this Road buster / Iron Hide!
out here lookin like the new gi joe bumblebee
Had a energon Ironhide but the door flaps kind of broke on me because it was a used copy and the hinges weren't the most sturdy so I just chucked it out.
Even if a show is bad. If a person says they love it cause they watched it as a kid then they get a pass
I watched it two years ago and loved it, as a 20 year old.
I hated this toy as a kid.
Those shoulder arm flaps were on such brittle plastic so it fell off after like. A month after I got it.
The noises it made were annoying.
It couldn't stand up properly when I'm doing more adamant play time sessions.
Did I mention how those stupid shoulder things fell off? Because omfg, I hated how stupidly brittle they were.
Did I also mention those shoulder plastic flaps sucked ass? Because they did.
He has a natural pooth in vehicle mode.
That intro goes kinda hard tho
The thing that bugs me about Ironhide is that his voice actor not only voice Carlos, but also Kira Jesus-fucking-Christ Yamato from Gundam SEED.
0:38 "Energon" is still a better introduction to "Transformers" than Michael Bay's movies I started with.
I'm loving these openings
Loved this version of ironhide but he has a seriously bad break risk with the shoulders which basically completely destroys the vehicle mode.
I have it. I don't know why I liked it enough to buy it back in the day... but I did... I only buyed 3 energon toys and this was one of them :O
I've always wondered how two Energon Ironhides Powerlinked would look.
XD
I'm a simple man, I see pooth I click
Oh superlink roadbuster
I think the combo mode mightve worked better with Jetfire
Looking forward to more reviews lol
This figure is great! This could easily be the most memed toy in the franchise, but I feel like that’s why it’s so great. It’s so stupid it’s wonderful.
Just my two cents tho lol
Love everyone reviews
Ironhide is all of the Pooth!
Question would like an energon iornhide as a Gen selects and what mold I'd chose a retooled er trailbreaker
You could probably cheat ankle pivots with this thing, idk.
I miss these old chunky gimmick filled dudes. Like they actually make me wanna play with them.
True.
I have a broken jetfire it only has its lower pprtion and i bought an overcast only to combine it with him
I got all my old energon toys on display
If you are able to get a mega sized get jet fire
it was idea from getter robo,
Imagine a Fanshobby omega supreme
Energon has issues as a show but the theme song is a banger
God dammit, I love your reviews, ur voice is also cute and pleasant to hear:)
i think the brown is supposed to be gold
Had this guy was glad when I sold it
Will you get the Fans Hobby Energon Prime? Or the Meg Tyranno?
I try to buy some armada toys but there toy expensive
I do enjoy the character design however, it's too tall for my collection. He would tower over everyone,
Overall, a nice oldschool figure. And I have to admit.... THE LOOOOONG leg mode is "interesting" 😁.
But I wanna ask, WHERE do you see anything Brown?
Like, if you mean the parts like the forarms, this isn't brown, that's Sand like beige .
gotta be honest, i like energon quite a bit. Kicker is by far the best human character in the franchise imo
I prefer the energon comic book series
What does Pooth stand for??
I really like car robots in disguise the Japanese one I really like all the Japanese continuation of G1 I like Armada energon Cybertron prime the animated series that's about it so don't listen to anybody s*** on your favorite stuff enjoy it
I also like RID and the Unicron Trilogy shows too besides, who wouldn't??
"pointing thumb at the G1 and Prime fanbases"
Heh, some nobodies am I right?? XD
He’s great and horrible at the same.
Yo
I remember how cringey his voice was in the show and i loved it when he got punched by fatimus prime
Anytime I hear it I just see Ed from Ed, Edd, n Eddy
You can blame his voice actor for that since people say he's not as good as everyone's precious Peter Cullen since he also voiced the original Ironhide :/
@@kinnikuman-devilman_fan_2002 yep og ironhide slaps hard
and hits so so different
THIS figure is ONE of the main reasons I absolutely HATED ENERGON and the figures in that line... I hated that he was SO FREAKING chunky, and a similar enough vehicle and colored up more like SKIDS than Ironhide, and WORSE THAN THAT, I absolutely HATED that he was SUCH a young punk b!+©# in the cartoon (which I didn't bother even finishing a full episode... Couldn't make myself do it... Hated, HATED the animation style AND especially the lame@$$ dialogue, characterization and voice acting!!! OMG... It was SUCH $#!T!!!😵🙄😑😑😑).
Pot bellied, chicken legs Optimus Prime was ANOTHER example of why I hated this line, after mostly enjoying Armada... HATED ENERGON enough that I only bought certain figures, mostly Decepticons, I believe, whereas I had bought nearly EVERYTHING from Armada, even with its flaws...
I pretty much hated everything about the Energon concept. It was chunky, clunky, LAZY and lame, and I was sad about that because I wanted it to be GOOD... "GOOD" as in, better than Armada "GOOD"... But it was SO MUCH WORSE!!! (On EVERY level, it was worse...😔)
Cybertron seemed to try and repair some of the damage Energon did across the board, but they didn't do enough to fix things with figures AND show, for me to buy more than JUST a few figures I thought looked kind of cool all-around. Which is unfortunate, because I really wanted Cybertron to be BETTER than Energon (which it barely was), AND AT LEAST as good as Armada, (but it wasn't...), so I could get back into a Transformers line again... Cybertron didn't really do it, unfortunately.
NOT UNTIL Classics began in 2007, did I get back into a line seriously. It was a great start towards G3/Generations, even though some of the figures weren't exactly ideal renditions in toy format. STILL Classics seems to have really kickstarted Third Party creativity because of that, so I'm NOT complaining about those figures, despite imperfections, because HasTak were in the process of getting a feel for what MANY fans wanted, and it takes a little bit to get in that groove...
ALSO, it got us cool 3rd Party upgrades for Ultra Magnus, Prime, & Hot Rod/Rodimus to name just a few... Stuff like the City Commander Armor, the freaking awesome G3 Trailer for Optimus, that's STILL as good or BETTER than MP-10V's trailer, in its OWN way (and I wish someone would reproduce it for our Kingdom Optimus figures!!!), and the Protector Armor upgrade to convert Classics HOT Rod into a full on voyager Rodimus Prime in bot mode, AND his vehicle mode, with a base option and cannons, plus his own hotrod version of Roller!!!
If Hasbro plans to revisit Energon in their Legacy line, I sincerely hope that they do a MUCH better job than the first time around... If they DO, who knows? I MIGHT actually buy some of them this time around.
Jeez, don't most G1 or Prime extremists have better things to do than talk about their stupid hate boners about the Unicron Trilogy??
Like seriously, it's starting to get old.
i don't like your review. it was cool for what it was.
TTG down bad with vid names yet again
Imagine comparing a Transformers show from the 2000's to TTG Lmao.
One of the first thirty comments
I just can’t get down with the Unicron Trilogy.
I feel sad for you that this was your childhood version of Transformers.
I feel sad that you have a hate boner for that trilogy, have a nice poor G1-obsessed life ya loser XD.
🤔I wonder what it would look like if you had two of them and power linked them both together?
