The WORST Toy In My Collection | Universe 2008 Deluxe ironhide Review #transformers - บันเทิง
Good review man. I had look to see when I reviewed this....it was 2009. This figure was SUCH a disappointment.
to anyone who reads this have a good day: )
I was disappointed in it just seeing it in stores, and I was under 10 years old when it was out
Balt i love you
i honestly think that this design works,but the toy is sadly terrible,i honestly love the universe toyline,we got a unique figures like hot shot and astrotrain and darkwing and cyclonus etc....,i honestly wish if we can ever get a remakes of nostalgic toylines like these
Honestly, I feel like I'd enjoy this figure quite a bit. I'm already kinda hard to dissapoint; indifferent a lot of times, really; so despite whatever flaws it has, i'd enjoy it. I'm not nitpicky on looks, so the broken up windows, through bad, don't bother me at all. I'd like to have it, it's not a bad figure to me from what I can tell.
Edit: I originally made this comment halfway through the video, and now finishing it, I'mma say that I'd get it, but not for memes or just to have something bad. I'd get it because, honestly, I do actually want it. Like I said, I am not too hard to dissapoint, and I feel like I'd get some enjoyment out of him
6:20 I suspect the knife was intended for Ratchet and the multi barrel gun for Ironhide. The early generations stuff had a lot of this alternate gimmick for getting two robots from one mould, and the "clip onto the wrist" kind of feels like the replacement hand gimmick of the g1 cartoon.
Idk. For whatever reason, I’ve always liked this guy. I finally bought one about a year ago and I like it. It’s not perfect but everyone shits on it all the time and pretty much none of the issues actually bother me. I don’t think it’s actually as bad as people are making it out to be.
Theres no criticism of the toy i've seen thats not warranted, but I still kinda like him. He's like *just* the right side of acceptable, and no more.
Some of the jank just kind of plays into Ironhides role as a crankly badass, like the weird arm articulation and the head positioning.
I had this figure since I was a kid and it never even occurred to me that it might not be good until everyone recently started meming on it. I can definitely see what everyone is talking about, but I'm so used to the thing that I can't really see it as bad
I bought this recently at a thrift store and ngl…I kinda love it unironically. It’s not a good toy at all, but I just enjoy it for some unholy reason,
the problem is the toy is overly designed with complex moving parts probably influenced by the 2007 live-action movie toys.

Ironhide is ALOT WORSE...
Eventhough He's Huge,
I'm Quite Delicate At Changing
Transformers & STILL Sonehow
Managed To Break-Off One Of
His Rear-View Windows...WTF?
IT IS A TOTAL TRAINWRECK!
Whereas Sentinel & Shockwave
Mechtech's Are Quite Wonderful.
Having grown up in the 90's in the Philippines, I liked the idea of his alt mode because that type of vehicle was more common then than vans.
they fixed the waist problem on the henkei versions and the ratchet even had a new ligthbar
I have heard countless stories about how much this guy sucks but he doesnt seem THAT bad, he seems decent for what he is. What bothers me the most would have to be the inconsistent window colors but other than that he doesnt seem terrible.
This Ironhide does have ONE redeeming quality....he has an OREGON license plate, I'm from Oregon and I collect Transformers...soooo I want to find one for my collection, despite his faults. I'm glad I clicked on your review!
I have a 2 pack of Optimus and Megatron I think was from Universe too that falls apart similar to this. What was up with Universe?
You should totally get a universe hound, they you love those era toys, I feel you’d love him.
He is on my list of figures to get, really like his alt mode
@@ThatToyGuy I still display the included ravage figure from that Hound toy over the WFC version.
Honestly this is a proof of concept to how great it could’ve been. So many great ideas like suv ironhide, back of the car chest, and that awesome automorph but it just missed the mark. At the very least, the ideas this figure brings to the table are awesome and would make a great figure with some modern engineering. Also, for some reason, every time studio series makes an ironhide, it kicks ass.
You honestly liked Ironhide having a dad-bod??
Wow, you're weird :/
@@kinnikuman-devilman_fan_2002 when did I say that and how does that make me weird?
@@hassanrao470 You liked his G1 look because his body looks like a Homer Simpson ripoff.
I lost some of my collection in a move, this is one guy I don't regret loosing in the slightest.
I think the worst toy I have in ´my collection is Cybertron Runamuck. Here's the twist: I like the figure. It's just he mold that is the problem. It's the Armada Side Swipe mold. But I think the Cybertron figure does it justice because he and his two Universe recolors really don't. Also, while Energon Hot Shot's robot mode is....ehhhh...not that great, his car mode is pretty good.
I like that he calls the transformers "toys" most collectors are embarrassed they collect "toys" but he's not ,and I enjoy that. Lol
I sold that thing... I don't plan on getting it back... Clear example of something that doesn't age well...
yknow, if you dont want the sg ratchet… i would be happy to take him off your hands 👀
but for real, i appreciate you doing reviews of infamous figures like this guy, i missed out on that era but i hear a lot about flops like this guy and galvatron. getting to see how these figures fail is an important bit of fandom history, i think.
I had this one from 2009 then sell it 10 years later along with Universe Ratchet, but I later regret it and bought another of those two as a second hand after watching Siege on Netflix, yeah there was already a Siege version during that time but I think the Universe version is way more cheaper and accessible especially Ratchet in the marketplace or Buy & Sell groups on Facebook, I think they are still good alternatives for the Siege/Earthrise even the upcoming SS86 version which will surely be way more expensive especially with today's inflation and still not as bad as the Universe Galvatron which I literally give it away as a donation for charity.
which one is the new version coming out?
Just a question, please respond, do you have the kingdom commander class hot rod.
I do have commander rodimus and I made a video on it
When Danny Devito kicks in:
It’s less complicated than I thought. And I still wish my friend sold me his that I got him for his birthday. But yeah, I’ll definitely get the SS version when it isn’t just stealable. But this one actually seems like the handle with care I haven’t had in awhile. Last one I’d say I had like that was the WFC original bumblebee mold. I snapped the waist on both BB and cliff. What a shame. Tho I’d say they’re more fiddly in a “ I’m definitely gonna break this” kinda way, making it worse.
do you keep it or sale it?
The er/siege one sacricifes for the robot mode, which is loads better than sacrificing every mode and the transformation
The ER's bot mode isn't that good either...
@@_V.Va_ the er one has a good bot mode bc its just the siege one again, and the siege one had a good bot mode
@@grrrmlin Siege Ironhide > ER Ironhide.
@@_V.Va_ violently agree. But the robot mode is still good in er. Its just the partsforming and alt mode that suck
hey what do you think of Unite warriors Ratchet?
I totally understand the complains, I do, and I agree with you.
...but damn, when I compare this to my G1 Ironhide toy with that hideous sticker for face and that looked _nothing_ like the cartoon character, this is like a dream.
I have the Shattered Glass Soundwave figure. I had to get it because I love Soundwave. Really hoping they release a new SG Soundwave figure using the Earthrise or the new Studio Series mold.
You can make it look better if you twist the crotch the other way around and you skip the chest automorph and leave the wheels down to fill the waist gap, that way the head is more visible, gains height and better posture. I had the henkei version, it has a MUCH better paintjob with the chrome details and the yellow line, but the arms come off all the time. Recently i buyed the siege version, it felt so good to finally have a good ironhide
I feel like you are the only transformers toy reviewer how reviews old figures of my favorite era
Is earthrise ratchet really that bad? Than why is he so pricey tbh I mean the vehicle mode sucks I know that but other than my knowledge is scarce of it
Honestly I don't think it's that bad at all and it's very overhated, but the reason it's expensive because every version of the mold was a scarce exclusive.
I'm not getting the new one because it's not that it looks bad, but I just really don't appreciate the direction Hasbro is going. The new one is priced at a voyager and it's literally smaller than the earthrise deluxe. It comes with one tiny accessory so it can't use the hot rod excuse (which was hardly one to begin with)
Ironic considering TFs at the time were fantastic …
Hey wait a minute, removing the wait and legs is supposed to be Jazz’s thing, not Ironhide’s!
*Oh wait, that actually also explains why the entire figure falls apart into rubble…*
What you think about ss86 ironhide
Oh, it's not just the paint on the sunroof that gets sticky it's all of it that's on the clear plastic, and I am a bit ashamed to say I had this growing up the problems I had other than the paint were that it one of the hood panels that make the leg front came unhinged and the other was that the middle hood piece that is connected to the front bummer broke at the midway point, oddly I still have it and all of its parts but it along with most of my bayverse toys (from my childhood) will likely either get sold or thrown away if you are interested although not many are in good condition if you want pictures let me know
I love the vehicle mode I hope they make more transformers with normal vehicle modes
Thank god I preferred WFC games/Prime and Bayverse Ironhide since they have muscles but don't have any tubby looks like the G1 counterpart does.
I think my perfect effect warden comes in today I’m TERRIBLY EXCITED would’ve loved to hear your opinion first
BUT THANK YOU FOR PUTTING IT ON MY RADAR BECAUSE OF YOU AFTER YOUR BUYYEEE HALL VIDEO I FOUND A BRAND NEW G1 metroplex missing sword only for 150 from this old man:))
I loved that intro
Genuine question: Why keep toys you don't like? I sell or give away anything I don't like or have no use for anymore.
I keep a lot of them for comparisons for videos or because sometimes they are bad but nostalgic. Otherwise I usually end up selling them or giving them to people who like them more than me.
@@ThatToyGuy OK that makes sense. But for people who don't have a youtube presence, I just don't get keeping them in bins or just keeping them and hating them.
The thing is I really liked his suzuki esque suv vehicle mode, but holy crap the panel lines, engineering and robot mode are just egregious
Guessing You Shattered
Or Even Cracked StudioSeries
86' HotRod & DESPISED KUP?
As THEY ARE MORE Delicate &
Kup ALSO Pegs Apart. Did You
Even Discover Classics 2.0
Galvatrons 3rd Mode...Which
WASN'T Featured in Instructions?
Aw man, i still love my Universe Ironhide and Galva... i think they're great! :D
BTW: Original G1 Ironhide &
ROTF #Mechtech Red Redeco
Ironhide's ARE MUCH WORSE!!
The reason this mold comes apart like that, is because it was supposed to be used for Kup too
man i feel like combiner wars ironhide is worse. the original ironhide would technically be worse if not for the novelty. It still amazes me someone saw that toy and reworked it into G1 ironhide. THat's the big difference with transformers and gobots. gobots pretty litterally translated the toys, and transformers reimagined a lot of them expecting children to use their imagination. then grow up and buy the toys because nostalgia. (No shade at gobots i love them.)
Please do a review of the Cybertron sideways, I recently got one and noticed you have one too
For a figure that falls apart easily, you certainly have to specifically pull on those parts....
I think I got this toy for Christmas when I was young I remember it being a red transformer and I recognize that chest decal though I don’t remember the weapon or the transformation
Also I may be in the minority but I think it's time for ratchet and ironhide lose the old Van Vehicle mode for future generations especially ironhide when I hear that name I think of something more well armored I'm not sure what is a perfect but I have an idea the Gurkha Conquest Knight XV would be a good choice for ironhide in my opinion the pick up variant to be exact and if they wanted they could make ratchet the hatchback one though I'm not sure how they would convert into a emergency vehicle but I think ironhide would rock The conquest knight XV pickup alt mode
Looking at the rear of his alt mode, Ironhide really needs to unclench💀
I gotta admit, pretty clever for them to use this mold for the first Shattered Glass starscream
I thought this figure was a great Ironhide at the time, now....not so much. Can't wait for the Studio Series 86 version!
how they massacred Ironhide like this
I have that red 2008 Ironhide and uhhh (pretty sure I posted his corpse in the server ages ago) yep it's definitely no longer in one piece
Thanks! I was about to order this one for my chug collection, but now ... hell no.
is earthrise ratchet that bad?
The ratchet repaint has yellowing plastic on mine. For all its flaws and I was disappointed too both were in demand when they came out
I just like the vibe of this lad, him and ratchet remind me of Deep Rock Galactic dwarves bouta bust up some rocks and some deceptichops
Ironhide's blue face reminds me the facial make up of the zombies from the original"Dawn of the dead" movie.
Nothing has ever fallen apart on my copy that I have had forever.
I think the face is blue because the g1 toy head was behind the wind shield. Only logical reason 😂
Just got the figure, I legit like him though, the weapon is dope, the overall robot design is cool and despite some issues, he's really cool.
Don't forget this mold has a botcon repaint with even a new head
If they to generations like this again and they make unique versions of characters to fit with wfc and legacy if they do a iron hide do a g1 style with truck mode like to bay verse had if they do a ratchet they could make a ems response truck
When I was younger i remember always wanted him
Wow, five bucks?! Yeesh
I can deal with the annoying joints and awkward transformation, but WHY ARE THERE SCREW HOLES ON THE FRONT?!
Dunno, I don’t hate the guy. The legs are cool, and he has that dope Oregon license plate. The waist separating is frustrating, as is the lack of clearance for the backpack, so it isn’t a particularly fun figure, but it’s fine.
What are you talking about, separating during transformation is clearly a feature to reduce the urge to smash it against the wall
Universe Ironhide: Because somehow the vehicle mode doesn't already look eviscerated enough.
I mean, before I had any sense of taste (assuming I do now), I thought the vehicle looked neat.
...and that's it.
I know the ER version is also trash (Ironhide himself being the mold's worst user and the one with the mold's flaws being most obvious), but I personally think there's a lot more to like on that mold, and has SOME charm to it.
But like with Thew, I'm doing all the work here with my not-disliking it. Mostly also coz I got the Nonnef feet, and it's Guard (best use of the mold) I'm mesmerized with, so that's a big factor.
Here...yeah, good concepts, but way more yeeeesh on the execution.
Chungus-hide be like:
The only positive is that it's technically better than the G1 toy, but that's not saying much.
But the card package with characters description made me buy this years ago...
To think that this is my dream toy when I was a kid, this exact Ironhide
I see this Ironhide took inspiration from Dark of the Moon
Dont be dissin my boy universe galvatron
I had the henkei version and i dont think the mold is that bad. This was my chug ironhide for yrs til the siege one came out
imma be real, the alt modes actual design is awesome, without the panel lines of course
If this is the worst toy in your collection, you have it lucky. You don’t have to deal with RID’15 Warrior Class Sideswipe. Now THAT is an atrocious figure.
i had this figure growing up and for some reason i had 2, probobly because it kept falling apart on me
I am a big dude, with big hands and you are being WAY more ham-fisted than I am with this toy.
DOTM Skids and Mupflap 💀💀💀💀
1:40 i appreciate the standards
I had the Ratchet iteration of this mold and no the white was not much of an improvement as it was the same half baked mold that barely held together. I swear this and the Generations Hotshot are some of the worst Transformers I've ever handled. Never had the Earthrise as 86 was out long after I decided to pick up on collecting again but even that is a better design than what apparently passed in Generations or was it Universe? They're all kind of one and the same to me now.
Sad that one time it’s was the best iron hide I’m so thankful we are in the day and age we are in…
I will forever love transformers universe line but I will never get an ironhide
Of course the face is blue, because if it were green he would die.
ive had this guy for a long time and its still good in my opinion, but definitely obsolete thanks to siege, earthrise and studio series, but i cant outright hate it.
ah, energon hotshot. buyers remorse as soon as i transformed it & saw those arms..... 😢
I used to love this toy, was my first love. When I was a kid, I remembered so much cooler that this xD.
7:14 me too pal, me Too...
F(
Best intro I've ever seen
Of that group of trash transformers, 2007 movie Swindle is the all time worst piece of refuse that will forever bring shame upon the designer and their familys name. The fact that Wreckage was in the same wave and is an amazing figure is crazy. Swindle is the 'forgot to study fever dream last minute project due' of a figure.
Appears to me that you had to apply significant pressure for him to come apart
Yes, as I stated in that part of the video, I applied pressure to split it. But as I also stated, it happens often without pressure applied.
You could do some collab with tj omega for the plastic addict
Trash is the worst TF line
The SDCC 2005 ironhide makes this ironhide look like a masterpiece from mcdonalds
