It's so wild to hear you mentioned so much Tie-in material in this video lol I'm so used to you just focusing solely on the movies lol Also I agree, Transformers 2007 DS is so underrated, the Decepticon edition of the game is probably the best movie-verse story in the franchise. Also, I think the main reason why Ironhide kept his battle mask throughout the movies is due to simplicity. I think it's just easier to sculpt, draw, and market. Of course, that was not always the case but I think Hasbro probably didn't care too much about that type of detail and gave the marketing artistic freedom to choose which type of face design should Ironhide have. Another, great vid as always 👍

Thx my man, this video was a breath of fresh air since I finally got a chance to dive into some other material besides the films. And I totally agree, the Decepticons game is the better out of the 2, of they did a dedicated remake/remaster of it with it being remade from the ground up to work on current gen consoles, that would be a real treat

bro Ironhide with the battle mask would have been cool as hell to see in the bay films, too bad we never got to see it on screen tho. I also like how Transformers DS is mentioned in this video too (supremely underrated game)
I thought that was supposed to be his nose when i was younger, Every time I look up images of Ironhide I always wondered how come he didn't have a mask in the films. I just assumed it was budget priorities for some reason. The leader class ironhide brings back memories of my childhood i lost it when i was 10 and I'm trying to look for one at a reasonable prince on amazon, i always love spamming the chest cannon.

The mask in first TF game on PS2 and Wii look like a vicking/knight helmet as a head
And studio series and movie masterpiece didn’t have a his mask but the studio series ironhide package still use the early concept art that hasbro added with his mask
This is one of my Favorite Transformers youtuber
What an interesting video this was. For my experience with Ironhide over the years as a transformers fan, I never really thought Ironhide had a battle mask of any kind. For the media where Ironhide did have a "mask" that I was exposed to: -Transformers Bayverse video games on the DS: I took it as the type of system the games were played on and low polygon count (what you said in this video), and in the case of his mugshot in Autobots/Decepticons DS, I always thought the producers maybe forgot to put a mouth on his face in relation to the system it was released on. Transformers The Game on Wii/PS2: I thought because of the systems they were on that the producers couldn't put on a mouth for Ironhide. Transformers ROTF on Wii/PS2: I saw something that resembled a mouth on Ironhide, but because of the limited capacity of the consoles, the producers weren't able to animate his mouth for lip movement. -Multiple concept art: I personally took it as a variation of Ironhide's head sculpt, which did lead to me drawing Ironhide with the "mask" as a different mouth piece where basically, he had a frown that resembled an isosceles trapezoid if you removed the longer parallel line, as a standard look for him. -The only Ironhide toys that I had in my life were Allspark Powered Voyager class and ROTF Voyager class, and both of his head sculpts looked normal to me, and also how I drew Ironhide. So, there's some interesting things about me when it comes to Ironhide. Also, I appreciate you doing a video on Ironhide as, ever since the first Bayverse film, he's one of my top favorite transformers characters. I know there are other videos about Ironhide on your channel, but I haven't watched them.

To be honest. Ironhide's mask make him more of a badass. With or without the mask. Sense I play Transformers 07 the DS game version as a Autobot and my brother as a Decepticon. I ask my bro say why he have mask and the movie he don't. But again look great. The Transformers Studio series I have my brother give him for my birthday he doesn't have a mask so idk Hasbro finally did it or don't. So yeah. And now I understand and see it. Thanks for the video.

Hey Trans,long time fan here. I was wondering as in how you the got the footage of the TF AOE mobile game. I was wondering how you did that,like was it from a KZread video or did you mange to find a way to actually play it? If, can you please tell me how to do so as well? You don’t necessarily have to, it’s just that I really like it when it still on where everyone could play it. Also could you maybe do a What If I Survived video about the Arcee triplets,Jazz,Ironhide,Ratchet and every other Autobot where in the finale battle in Transformers The Last Knight 2017?

Awesome vid man I have always wondered what that was so thanks for an explanation 😀. One question though Trans? Are you going to consider the rise of Unicron movie Canon? The fan film.
He actually has it in the ps2 version of the tie-in game in both gameplay and cutscenses. In the ps3 and 360 versions he has his more movie accurate look BUT there's an error in his cutscenes in all versions where he'll switch between his ps2 appearance and ps3 appearance

2007 franchise Jazz had a visor that protected his upper-face in combat. Transformers Ironhide also had a mouthplate similar in appearance to Optimus Prime's as shown in some of his concept art and toys, but he has never officially used it on film.
