Character Description:
A tough, weathered soldier, he is always the first in battle. Ironhide is one of Optimus' oldest friends, but has a grittier outlook on life. A weapon specialist & old-fashioned warrior, Ironhide is the big stick that backs up the soft steps of Optimus Prime. Paint scarred & chrome chipped by shrapnel from hundreds of battles, he is the oldest of the Autobots. His right hip is a mass of bypasses & temporary solutions, his power core & timing system are irregular, & his idle is set way too high; but his optics are the sharpest on Cybertron, & his cannon arm is as steady as ever. Optimus Prime relies on him for tactical advice & a cool head. As long as they keep making missiles compatible with his cannons, he’ll keep fighting, until every last DECEPTICON is a smoldering wreck.
