"Headmaster Ironhide"?????

I just don't see the headmaster part.

It's a nice WIP, and I'd like to see the finished product.

I'll wait for Classics Ironhide (though his seeming lack of being able to hold weapons bothers me).

Also, they made a Wheelie???

Yeah man, Wheelie was one of the first, with Cyclonus. Not sure which one came first. That is at least a year old information.

Not that I know of.

They pop up on Ebay from time to time, but they always want some pretty heavy cash for them. Last set I remember went for $300+ for the Wheelie and Cyclonus.

I REALLY wish HasTak would hire these guys for the 25th anniversary line!!!

Nice WIP, can't wait to see the finished project. I don't think I'll get it though, price is bound to be high and Universe Ironhide will probably be just as good if not better IMO.

These guys should be hired by TakaraTomy to work on new Masterpiece figures along with the ones already working on those. I'm anxious to see how this Ironhide will turn up to be when finished. Wheelie and Cyclonus were excelent, as was Powerglide.

Yeh, thats true, but if I put that up, most new TF fans would have asked what a Brainmaster is.

And they should damn well ask and be told. I'm staring at that thing and wondering how the hell it's a headmaster. If it had said brainmaster i woulda understood.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I want to watch some Victory.

The headmaster part makes sense when you consider the G1 toy next to it(remember the biggest problem with the original Ironhide mold?).

It'll probably look better than the Universe Classic Series version when complete. Though with such small production runs and high cost, they pose no real threat to Hasbro.

Unfortunately such things are beyond the reach of the average fan.

is it supose to look like that i now its protoype custom figure but it looks like something you can make out of lego robot mode looks better than the truck mode

It's a work in progress. If you look around their website at the other work you'll see the whole process of how they go about designing a figure, and get an idea of what the end product will look like. It will be superb.

Check out Jizaitoys' Powerglide for example. They block it out and refine it bit by bit.

Alt mode still needs a lot of work. I doubt this will be worth the price, although bot mode looks pretty good so far.

From Victory, the last full lewngth Transformers cartoon from Japan before they stopped doing TF stuff until Beast Wars at full length length.

Like all -masters they were mini-figures that accompanied a full size one. You'd put them in the chest of their full-sized robot and close the door and they'd push up and fill in the face area of the toy, as the "head" was there but faceless. I haven't ever owned one so I'm not entirely certain of exactly how the mechanics of the gimmick worked, but it seems basic to me.

Yeah, I know what you mean... I've watched 1 episode from the Cybertron series and couldn't stand it like you coulnd't stand RiD :S .

Super God MasterForce is very different, it's more anime style. I'd recommend you to watch 2-3 episodes 1st.

I know many people love Beast Wars, but from what I've seen so far I simply can't stand it... :S

Super God Masterforce is, IMO, incredible.
You need to be able to tolerate the campiness and oddness at time, but it's just plain fun.
