[[Optimus Prime (Animated)|Optimus Prime]] is a turbo-revvin' young leader {{m-}} with a lot of toys!

==Toys==
===Animated===
====Legends Class====
{{anchor|Legends3pack}}
*'''Stealth Lockdown''' (Animated 3-pack, 2008)

: A ''Universe'' Legends-class Optimus Prime came packaged with this version of [[Lockdown (Animated)|Lockdown]], as well as a Legends [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]]. He is nearly identical to the single-carded Legends class ''Universe'' Animated Optimus Prime, but uses a lighter blue plastic for the blue parts.

[[Image:AniLegendsOptimusClearRed.jpg|thumb|300px|This justice of mine is burning red! Its loud roar tells me I need to be extinguished!]]
*'''Optimus Prime Clear Red Ver.''' (EZ Collection, 2010)

: A redeco of Legends-class Optimus Prime in translucent red plastic (with some opaque red parts). It was a freebie for customers who bought ''Transformers Animated'' products for at least 3,000 yen at Japanese [[Toys"R"Us]] stores.

[[Image:AniEZLimited.jpg|250px|thumb]]
*'''Optimus Prime Clear Family Mart Exclusive Version''' (EZ Collection, 2010)

:A redeco of Legends Optimus Prime in his regular colors but with some translucent blue parts. He was given away at Family Mart stores in Japan as part of their raffle token promotion. Unlike Optimus Prime Clear Red Version, he is painted to resemble his normal coloration, only clear. He was prize D, of 1 of 4 different types of translucent EZ Collection figures, the other three being Bumblebee, Prowl, and Starscream.

*'''Optimus Prime Elite Guard Version''' (EZ Collection, 2010)
:A redeco of Legends-class Optimus Prime in dark red, black and gold, with a gold [[Elite Guard]] symbol on its chest. It was only available blind-packed in TakaraTomy's EZ Collection Volume 4. The deco - seemingly based on [[:Image:Cyb GalaxyForceOptimusPrime.jpg|''Cybertron'' Galaxy Force Optimus Prime]] - would later be repeated for Million Publishing's Voyager-scaled Optimus Prime Elite Guard Version figure.

{{-}}{{anchor|LegendsGoldVersion}}
[[Image:EZGoldOptimus.jpg|thumb|250px]]
*'''Optimus Prime Gold Version''' (EZ Collection, 2010)
:A redeco of Legends-class Optimus Prime colored entirely gold, save for the tires and parts of his elbows being black. It was only available blind-packed in TakaraTomy's EZ Collection Volume 4.

{{-}}
====Deluxe Class====
[[Image:TFAnimated Deluxe CybertronPrime toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|"I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay. I sleep all night and I work all day."]]
*'''CYBERTRON Mode Optimus Prime''' (Deluxe, 2008)
**''Accessories'': Ion-axe

:Based on his pre-[[Earth]] Cybertronian look, the first version of ''Animated'' Optimus Prime transforms into a half-track Cybertronic truck which resembles the [http://www.fleetwatch.co.za/magazines/Feb2005/78-WW-Feb05.htm Mitsubishi Fuso Hybrid concept truck] with some heavy sci-fi influences. As a half-track, instead of rear wheels, he has molded, caterpillar-linked tracks with smaller wheels inside for rolling along smooth surfaces. The hitch assembly becomes his axe, which can be wielded with one blade (for the rocket-boosted look) or have the single blade split to form a double-bladed axe. The truck roof can be mounted on his left arm as a shield or spread apart and attached to the axe to become giant energon blades.

:Prime's axe weapon is stored by partially folding the axe at the grey hinge near the handle peg, then placing the handle peg in a hole on the back of the cab (actually his two fists' holes, thus helping them hold it in position) with the blade facing down and a grey peg facing up, acting as a "fifth wheel" (known as a trailer hitch among fans), should one find a suitable trailer to attach onto it. The peg also resembles the rocket thruster on the back of Prime's axe in robot mode. The figure's superb range of articulation and long axe-handle actually allow Optimus to wield his weapon two-handed. This is sheer awesomeness.

{{anchor|FightOfStart}}
*'''Fight of Start''' (Deluxe 2-pack, 2010)
**''Accessories'': Ion-axe
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''VS-F'''

:For its Japanese release, CYBERTRON Mode Optimus Prime was given a shinier metallic red paint job and white-bordered Autobot symbols, like the majority of the TakaraTomy ''Animated'' toys. The figure was only available in a 2-pack with a redecoed version of the Deluxe-scale Cybertronian [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron]] from the ''Optimus Prime vs. Megatron: The Battle Begins'' set.

:The title of this set in Japanese is "hajimari no taiketsu" - which amounts to "the battle begins" when translated, but the back of the box chooses to render the phrase as "Fight of Start". [[Engrish|Oh well...]]

{{-}}
====Entertainment Pack====
{{anchor|DVDpack}}
[[Image:TFAnimated Deluxe BattleBegins Prime toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|[http://youtube.com/watch?v=OHxyZaZlaOs And he "axed" him for help...]]]
*'''Optimus Prime vs. Megatron: The Battle Begins''' (Entertainment Pack, 2008)
**''Accessories'': Ion-Axe

:The Deluxe-class Earth Mode Optimus Prime has a very similar engineering design to the Deluxe-class Cybertron Mode Optimus Prime figure. He has a battle-damaged deco and comes with a Deluxe-class Cybertron Mode Megatron figure as well as [[Transformers Animated (cartoon)/DVD#Pack-in disc|a DVD]] featuring the first episode of ''Transformers Animated''. He has a distinctively more "[[Generation 1 (franchise)|Generation 1]]" look than other ''Animated'' Primes, given the addition of smokestacks (a detail absent from the animation model) and a lack of black beneath the silver stripes. Like deluxe Megatron, he features a punching/axe slashing gimmick, where twisting his spring-loaded waist will make it snap back for a "robot punch." There are actually 4 wheels on his legs, so that the tires are always on the outside. Unfortunately, he can't skate on them like in the show. His axe (which is the most show-accurate out of all of his toys) stores in his aft section. As with Cybertron Mode Optimus, this figure even has enough articulation to hold his long-handled axe two-handed and raise it over his head for a massive chop. ''Brilliant.''

:If you want to be pedantic about it, the battle implied by the battle-pack pairing is technically a timeline impossibility, insofar as it depicts Earth Mode Optimus versus Cybertron Mode Megatron. It is also [[Scale|scaled]] incorrectly, as Megatron was shown as being notably larger than Optimus in ''[[Transform and Roll Out]]''.

: This toy was later re-released without changes in a [[#2packBlackarachnia|2-pack with Blackarachnia]] and was also redecoed in transluscent plastics and packaged with [[Rodimus Prime (Animated)|Rodimus]] by Takara in a ''Sons of Cybertron'' 2-pack.

:*''[http://www.tfu.info/2008/Autobot/BattleBeginsOptimusPrime/optimusprime.htm More information on "The Battle Begins" Optimus Prime at TFU.info]''

{{-}}{{anchor|2packBlackarachnia}}
*'''The Revenge of Blackarachnia''' (Deluxe 2-pack, 2008)

: This two-pack featured an unchanged Deluxe Optimus Prime from the ''Battle Begins'' two-pack, and an unchanged Deluxe [[Blackarachnia (Animated)|Blackarachnia]]. The bundle was a [[Walmart]] [[exclusive]] [[Black Friday (event)|Black Friday]] release for 2008.

{{-}}{{anchor|SonsofCybertron}}
[[Image:Takara_animated_crystal_optimus.jpg|right|300px|thumb|]]
*'''Sons of Cybertron: Optimus Prime and Rodimus''' (Deluxe 2-pack, 2010)
**''Accessories'': Ion-Axe

: "Sons of Cybertron" ''Animated'' Optimus Prime and [[Rodimus Prime (Animated)|Rodimus]] are translucent [[redeco]]es of their respective Deluxe Class molds. In addition to being part of [[TakaraTomy|Takara's]] ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers 2010 (franchise)|Transformers 2010]]'' celebration, the set was also sold as an exclusive at Shanghai Con.

{{-}}{{anchor|GoldVersion}}
[[Image:AnimatedDeluxeGoldOptimus.jpg|thumb|300px|I may be called Optimus Prime, but I'm sure being marketed as a Convoy!]]
*'''Optimus Prime Gold Version''' (Deluxe, 2010)
**''Accessories'': Ion-Axe

:A gold-chromed version of the Deluxe-class Battle Begins Optimus Prime, Optimus Prime Gold Version was made available to residents of Japan via a lottery. There were several ways to enter the drawing for him: one could clip out and send in a barcode from a single standard ''Animated'' toy (or four EZ Collection barcodes), or send in 5 Sega Transformers trading cards, '''or''' cut out and send in the appropriate portion of the characters cards included with Paramount of Japan's ''Animated'' DVDs. The entry period of the drawing was August 1st to September 30th, 2010.

:Optimus Prime Gold Version was limited to 1,000 pieces.

[[Image:AnimatedDeluxeClassOptimusPrime.jpg|thumb|300px|It pays to be clean, kids.]]
*'''Deluxe Class Optimus Prime''' (Deluxe, 2010)
**''Accessories'': Ion-Axe

:A recolor of Battle Begins Optimus Prime, "Deluxe Class" Optimus Prime keeps the same base plastic colors as the US release but removes all painted battle damage. This toy was only available in Japan as a prize in a lottery held in association with Family Mart.

{{-}}

====Voyager Class====
{{anchor|Voyager}}
[[Image:TFAnimated Voyager EarthOptimusPrime toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Hey, whatever happened to that [[mouthplate]]?]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Voyager, 2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TA-01'''
**''Accessories'': Ion Axe/backpack, water cannon

:Part of the second wave of Voyager class toys, this Optimus transforms into a futuristic Earth-mode fire truck (well, the front half of one, at least). His rear portion includes a giant extinguisher cannon, which can become a hand weapon and [[Water-squirting gimmick|really squirts water]]. His trailer also transforms into a giant, very non-[[Show-accuracy|show-accurate]] double-bladed ion axe. These weapons can store on his back, giving the appearance of wings and a jet pack. Like his deluxe-class toys, Prime can also hold his axe two-handed, albeit not as easily achieved compared to the deluxe versions. The toy features a mouthplate which can slide up to cover his face or retract down below. He also has an [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]] feature: Pressing a button on his...butt...flips down and rotates his...crotch...into the proper position for robot mode. Please, Hasbro, no more features in those areas.

:Voyager Optimus is the most [[Show-accuracy|show-accurate]] of the various ''Animated'' Optimuses (apart from his weapons, although his fist-holes are the same size as the Deluxe versions, so he can "borrow" their more accurate axes), and certainly the most [[Scale|scale-accurate]] when displayed alongside other figures that only exist in one primary [[size class]] like [[Prowl (Animated)|Prowl]] or [[Blackarachnia (Animated)|Blackarachnia]]. The original release of this toy was notable amongst ''Animated'' figures for its lack of a faction symbol in either mode; later waves of the figure, however, have included a silver-on-white Autobot sigil on the robot mode's left shoulder to more closely reflect the animation model's detailing.

:This mold was [[retool]]ed into [[BotCon 2011]] ''Animated'' [[Motormaster (Animated)|Motormaster]].

{{-}}{{anchor|VoyBlackVersion}}
[[Image:AniVoyagerOptimusBlackVersion.jpg|thumb|300px|I feel so used.]]
*'''Optimus Prime Black Version''' (Voyager, 2010)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TA-01'''
**''Accessories'': Ion Axe/backpack, water cannon

:A [[black repaint|black redeco]] of the standard Voyager Optimus Prime, Optimus Prime Black Version was available exclusively at the Japanese "Transformers Museum" event held at the Seibu department store in Otsu, Shiga Prefecture from August 3rd to August 8th, 2010. The figure was limited to 300 pieces.

{{-}}{{anchor|VoyEliteGuard}}
[[Image:AniVoyEGOptimus.jpg|thumb|300px|Our worlds are in danger!]]
*'''Optimus Prime Elite Guard Version''' (Voyager, 2011)
**''Accessories'': Ion Axe/backpack, water cannon

:A dark red, black and gold redeco of the standard Voyager Optimus Prime, Optimus Prime Elite Guard Version was a mail-order exclusive from Japan's [[Million Publishing]], requiring a coupon from their ''Animated Encyclopedia'' guidebook to purchase. It shares its color scheme with the EZ Collection Volume 4 Optimus Prime Elite Guard Version figure.

:The original promotional silhouette for this figure depicted it with the armor from the Wingblade Optimus Prime toy, which it did not end up having.

{{-}}{{anchor|Wingblade}}
[[Image:Animatedtoy-OptimusPrimeWingBladeTakara.jpg|right|thumb|300px|Twist ties and metallic paint do not mix.]]
*'''Wingblade Optimus Prime''' (Voyager, 2010)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TA-38'''
**''Accessories'': 'Wingblade' jetpack, Magnus Hammer

: Wingblade Optimus Prime is a translucent [[redeco]] of the Voyager Optimus Prime with attachable battle armor, representing Optimus as he appeared in "[[Endgame, Part I]]" and "[[Endgame, Part II|II]]". It includes both his jetpack and a slightly scaled down version of the [[Magnus Hammer]], in addition to the character's signature axe. In vehicle mode, the Wingblade jetpack and Magnus Hammer reassemble to become a winged trailer of sorts, which can be swapped out with the standard axe piece. His Wingblade jetpack and Magnus Hammer are said to be compatible with the Deluxe Class toy in both modes, but are extremely loose.

:Hasbro's release of this figure was to package the Wingblade armor and accessories with an "undirtied" redeco of the Deluxe ''The Battle Begins'' two-pack Optimus mold, rather than the Voyager TakaraTomy uses. It remains to be seen whether or not Hasbro's version will see an official release in the Western market.

:The new gauntlet hand attachment piece has two notches, one notch is for the included Magnus Hammmer and another notch in order to hold [[Ultra Magnus (Animated)|Ultra Magnus']] Magnus Hammer as well.

====Roll Out Command====
{{anchor|Supreme}}
[[Image:TFAnimated RolloutCommand OptimusPrime toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Be sociable, have a [[Pepsi Convoy|Pepsi]]!]]
*'''Roll Out Command Optimus Prime''' (Supreme, 2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TA-41'''
**''Accessories'': Ultra-Axe

:This super-sized Prime figure is sculpted around one major gimmick: Rolling the toy forward in vehicle mode causes the cab to spin around, slowly unfolding into the robot mode torso. The legs are subsequently transformed manually, completing the robot mode. Pressing the Autobot [[insignia]] between Prime's windows and the lights on his roof both activate assorted electronic effects, including red LEDs in his lightbar, yellow LEDs in his headlights and eyes, and sound effects including engine revving noises, a siren, and four speech clips featuring the voice of David Kaye. In robot mode, Prime's (non-retractable) [[mouthplate]] jiggles up and down in time with his speech.

:Prime is armed with a particularly cartoon-accurate axe, which can be held in either hand, but which specifically interacts with his right one. Placing the axe in his fist and pressing the button on the back of his hand triggers the axe's pop-out translucent blades and rocket jet. Pushing down on the tab built into the back of his right shoulder extends the arm out fully, and releasing it lets Prime swing his axe down, accompanied by an electronic slashing noise. The left arm has a similar effect, except pushing the tab thrusts his arm forward in a punch, with accompanying sound effect.

:While Prime's legs have a high range of articulation like most ''Animated'' toys, his torso is heavily beholden to its gimmicks and features no effective articulation whatsoever; the only manipulable part of his body above his waist that isn't part of a gimmick is his right elbow.

:Many (all?) copies of this figure have the moving mouthplate default to the "down" position when not moving, rather than "up" or "at rest" as the box photography would indicate. This leads to the unfortunate impression that Optimus is either always mid-sentence...or a slack-jawed yokel.

:This mold was used to make the first prize of the [[Hasbro UK exclusive limited Edition Handmade Samples]].

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Activators, 2008)

{{anchor|BumperBattler}}
[[Image:BumperBattlers OptimusPrime toy.JPG|right|300px|thumb|]]
*'''Bumper Battlers Optimus Prime''' (Bumper Battlers, 2008)

:Like all Bumper Battlers is a simple one-step Transformer aimed at younger kids. He transforms by pushing the front bumper of his truck mode, which flips up a robot torso and upper thighs. Yup, that's right—if you smash him into a wall or other toys he will transform. Good luck finding a loose, mint version of this toy when you're on your nostalgia trip 10 years from now.

:In robot mode he actually has some limited articulation in his wrists, and his neck. Plus he's holding an adorable little axe in one hand.

:The toy has a sound chip that can be activated in either mode. It has two massive strings of phrases, battle sounds and voice effects, actived by either pressing his Autobot insignia or pressing his bumper (which also transforms him). Some phrases are recombined for more variation.

:A redeco of the original Bumper Battlers toy in dark purple and black with [[Neon|lime green]] windows and accents. The sound effects are new, and seemingly utilize an actor who is not David Kaye.

===Universe (2008)===
[[Image:Universe2008-toy LegendsAniPrime.JPG|right|250px|thumb|]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Legends, 2008)

: Part of the [[Universe (2008 franchise)|2008 ''Universe'' series]], this [[Legends Class|Legends-class]] version of Optimus is a simple version of the larger Earth-mode Optimus design. He is part of the third wave of Legends-class figures. He joins Activator Optimus and McOptimus in the axeless Primes club.

: This figure is close to but not identical to the Legends Optimus Prime sold in the ''Animated'' Stealth Lockdown multi-pack, however the single-carded Universe toy features a duller, darker blue.

{{-}}
===Fast food kids meal toys===
{{anchor|McD}}
*'''Optimus Prime''' (McDonald's Happy Meal toys, 2008)

:A simple version of Optimus Prime with a very simple transformation sequence. You transform him by pulling down the legs, rotating out the arms from the back, unfolding the forearms, flipping up the head, and sliding the toes forward. Rather unusual amongst the ''Animated'' McDonald's toys, which typically have one show-accurate mode and one non-show-accurate mode, Optimus manages to pull off both modes with reasonable accuracy. He too is deprived of an axe, as McDonald's toys generally lack accessories.

==Merchandise==
[[Image:Ani-toy OptimusBattleBlaster.JPG|right|250px|thumb|This is the only toy available for Prime's [[trailer]].]]
*'''Optimus Prime Battle Blaster''' (2008)

: This toy is a simple fire truck which transforms into a thing with a nominal resemblance to a hand holding a gun and can be fitted around one's hand. It has recorded sounds activated by pressing the Autobot logo on the truck, or by pulling the trigger in gun mode. It features sounds voiced by David Kaye, varying engine sounds and the transformation sound effect.

===Transformers Cards===
* '''Optimus Prime'''
** ''Card number'': '''A-001'''
: Part of the ''[[Transformers Cards]]'' series used in the ''[[Transformers Animated: The Chase]]'' and ''[[Transformers Animated: The Shooting]]'' arcade card-reading games by [[Sega]].

** ''Promotion number'': '''P-001''', '''P-022''', '''P-023'''
: Also part of the Transformers Cards series in the Sega arcade games, except the art is mostly character art in motion. P-001 has the most variations of Optimus from various venues, '''P-001c''' drawn by [[manga]] artist [[Naoto Tsushima]] as part of promoting ''[[The Cool]]'' manga.

==Notes==
*Optimus Prime's bio on his Happy Meal toy at McDonald's says he is a '''FIRE TRUCK CAB'''.
*To date, none of Optimus' toys come with his trademark "grappler launcher" weapons.

Armorhide (Movie)

2011-05-16T11:24:59Z

124.106.135.135: /* Revenge of the Fallen */

{{factions|autobotfilm|sector7|NEST}}
{{disambig3|Armorhide}}
:''Armorhide is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Movie (franchise)|2007 movie franchise]] portion of the [[Live-action film series|live-action film]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:ReignofStarscream4 Armorhide.jpg|right|250px|thumb|My toy looks a ''little'' different...]]
'''Armorhide''' figures that the only way to beat the [[Decepticon|Decepticons]] is to beat them at their own game. So he's extremely nasty, underhanded, and ruthless to the point of being murderous in combat. This puts him at odds with his teammates and earns him reprimands from [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], but frankly Prime can stuff it in his [[reactor linkage]] as far as Armorhide is concerned. At least when he's paired up with [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]], the mute Autobot can't raise a fuss.

==Fiction==
===Titan Magazines Movie comics===
{{notetitantlg}}
[[Image:Armorhide_drawhisfire.jpg|left|250px|thumb|That's it there. Good, eh? You should buy it!]]

Armorhide was part of the Autobot reinforcements. He was quite gung-ho about it, pointing out how the planet was doomed "unless ''we'' [did] something about it!" to [[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee]] - even though she already bloody knew this. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 9|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 1}} When [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] attacked, Armorhide declared he'd draw the Decepticon's fire, as he could take more punishment than the others - shockingly, this didn't work against a foe that can fly really fast. Armorhide joined his comrades in heading for Earth to make a last-ditch stand. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 11|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 3}}

His half of the team landed in [[Savannah]], and assisted [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] and [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] in a doomed battle. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 12|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 4}} Mid-battle, he decided to try being coloured white with blue bits, and then covered Ratchet as the medic made a last-ditch attempt to destroy the corrupted All Spark. The mission done, they withdrew. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 13|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 5}} He later decided to go back to black.

[[Image:RatchetArmorhide_letsdoit.jpg|right|400px|thumb|And my old ''Cybertron'' toy too!]]

He hated sentry duty, and was also rubbish at it. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 14|Aftermath Part 1}}

In one engagement to protect human infrastructure, he worked with [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] and Arcee to protect an Alaskan oil pipeline from [[Payload (Movie)|Payloads]]. Bumblebee gave the orders and that order was to hold position, so naturally Armorhide transformed into truck mode and ''rammed'' the drone forces. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 16|Dark Spark}}

With the two of them, he was placed under [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide's]] command on a mission to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. He also found the time to paint himself green. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 17|Return to Cybertron: Part 1}} He then changed his mind and decided to be blue-and-white again. More worrying than fashion, however, were a Decepticon force powered by [[Nucleon]]; even ''he'' knew it would be stupid to have a straight fight, and said as much. Instead, he and Arcee provided a distraction by making a tactical withdrawal. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 18|Return to Cybertron: Part 2}}

The chaos of [[Unicron]]'s arrival ended the battle with the Decepticons, though Armorhide was annoyed to hear [[Stockade (Movie)|Stockade]] thought [[Unicron|planet-warping death-gods]] were more important than killing him. He also found the time to go back to black. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 19|Return to Cybertron: Part 3}} When Optimus Prime arrived and united both sides to drain the Nucleon from Unicron's new body, Armorhide was dispatched to work with Bumblebee in doing the actual draining. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 20|Return to Cybertron: Part 4}}

On the way back, he was one of the gunnery men on the [[Straxus (Movie)|Straxus]]. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 21|Hard Target}}

{{-}}

===IDW ''Transformers'' Movie comics===

Many years ago, Armorhide was a civilian during the reign of Protector [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] and science division leader [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus]]. This peaceful existence ended when a [[The Fallen|mysterious relic]] was discovered outside the temple of [[Simfur]], and Megatron changed the military's mission of defending [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] to open conquest, Armorhide joined with Optimus ''Prime's'' new faction, the Autobots. He was hiding out at an Autobot facility when [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] arrived to offer his allegiance to Optimus. During the subsequent civil war, He was present when Optimus Prime revealed his plan to capture the [[AllSpark (Movie)|All Spark]], and due to the lack of space on the ''[[Ark (Movie)|Ark]]'', some Autobots would have to stay behind. Armorhide was among those who volunteered to stay. {{Storylink|Defiance issue 4}}

[[Image:ReignofStarscream5 Crosshairs Armorhide.jpg|left|250px|thumb|''I SAID you should BUY IT.'' You lookin' for trouble?!]]

Thousands of years later and shortly after the destruction of Megatron and the Cube on [[Earth]], Armorhide part of a group of Autobots awaiting the order to move out and rescue fellow Autobots who had been captured by the Decepticons to build [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream's]] new All Spark cube. With the return of [[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee]], they moved out. {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream issue 4|The Reign of Starscream Issue Number Four}}

When [[Dreadwing (Movie)|Dreadwing]]'s forces betrayed [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] at Simfur, Armorhide, [[Crosshairs (Movie)|Crosshairs]]. Clocker and Arcee created havoc by destroying the new [[AllSpark (Movie)|All Spark]] cube and fighting the rebel Decepticon forces. Armorhide was pinned by [[Ramjet (Movie)|Ramjet]], and would have been killed if Crosshairs hadn't lopped the Decepticon's head off. He managed to escape with the other Autobots when Dreadwing's starship came crashing down to [[Trypticon (Movie)|Trypticon]], destroying the once-magnificent Decepticon city. {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream issue 5|The Reign of Starscream Issue Number Five}}

Through unknown means, he turned up on Earth and was captured and brainwashed by the [[Initiative]] into being one of their soldiers. His colours were bleached out and he was thrown at an Autobot/[[NEST]] team in the Initiative's final battle. {{storylink|Nefarious issue 5}} He was taken in alive, and magically [[#Revenge of the Fallen|changed bodies]] mid-battle! {{storylink|Nefarious issue 6}}

Along with the other brainwashed Autobots, he was eager to return to battle but Optimus told them they still needed to recuperate after the mental trauma they'd suffered. Armorhide tried to refute this but accidentally proved Optimus wrong when he kept forgetting he was no longer on Cybertron and not talking to [[Sentinel Prime (ROTF)|Sentinel Prime]]. {{storylink|Rising Storm issue 1}} While Optimus and his team went to save [[Sam Witwicky]] from a Decepticon attack, Armorhide and the other refugees remained on [[Diego Garcia]], nostalgically staring at pictures from Cybertron's past. In their docile state, they were found and killed by [[Shockwave (Movie)|Shockwave]]. {{storylink|Rising Storm issue 3}}

*'''Armorhide''' (Scout, 2007)
**''Accessories'': Crane-cannon, Key

: Part of the third wave of Target-[[exclusive]] Scouts, Armorhide is a [[redeco]] of the ''[[Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]'' series [[Armorhide (Cybertron)|Armorhide]] toy, transforming into a debadged first-generation Volvo FH Globetrotter semi tractor-trailer cab with hook-crane attachment. Plugging a [[Cyber Planet Key]] into the back of his cab flips his grill down, exposing a rack of eight (non-firing) missiles. This feature is also available in his robot mode. Unlike most ''Cybertron''-mold toys, Armorhide can store a Cyber Planet Key using tabs on his hook-crane/rifle. He came with a black-bordered [[Planet X (Cybertron)|Planet X]]-mold Key with the [[Sector Seven]] insignia stamped on it.

: This mold was also used to make ''[[Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Huffer (G1)|Huffer]], and Armorhide's toy itself was [[Repurposing|repurposed]] as ''[[Shattered Glass (toyline)|Shattered Glass]]'' [[Huffer (SG)|Huffer]].

*'''Armorhide''' (Deluxe, 2009)
**''Accessories'': Gun
:''[[Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Armorhide is a redeco of [[Landmine (Movie)|Landmine]] from the [[Movie (franchise)|first movie]], transforming into an assault buggy. He features two [[Automorph]] gimmicks: a spring-loaded front end, retracting his front wheels into his chest during transformation, and sliding panels on each of his shins that retract when the tail light/knee caps are moved into place.

:In robot mode, Armorhide's gun can be back-mounted to make an over-shoulder cannon, or held in his hand. He also has wheels on the soles of his feet, which let him roll in robot mode... in theory, at least, since his heel-wheels rub against his legs, keeping them from spinning freely.

:This mold was later redecoed into ''[[Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' [[Cometter (DOTM)|Cometter]].

==Notes==
* Though the bio on his 2007 Scout class figure brands him as an Autobot, his "faction" marking is that of [[Sector Seven]]. It is possible that he is hiding out in the Sector Seven motor pool, maybe even as the cab for the [[Sector Seven Mobile Command Unit|Mobile Command Unit]].
* Even more interesting, his Cyber Key has a Decepticon symbol on its backside. So Armorhide is even more than meets the eye...spooky.
* Armorhide's 2007 Scout class figure cardback claims his wrecker-arm-cannon has a spring-loaded projectile. It don't. Whoops.
* Twice, he's been coloured like the Cybertron Armorhide in the Titan comics. He was also once coloured green.

In response to the threat of [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] at the [[Hoover Dam]], Salazar unveiled, the L.M.-1.

*'''Landmine''' (Deluxe, 2008)
**''Japanese ID number'': '''MA-19'''
**''Accessories'': Auto-grenade launcher, AllSpark cube (Japanese release only)

: As part of the "[[AllSpark Power]]" portion of the movie line, Landmine transforms into a [[Sector Seven]] assault buggy of the type seen in the [[Transformers (2007)|movie]], which in turn is a heavily modified Chenowth Desert Patrol Vehicle (DPV) with added protective armor. He has several S7 markings over his chassis. The rear of the vehicle sports an identification number of G2G-534. He features spring-loaded shock absorbers on all of his vehicle-mode wheels, plus a roof-mounted cannon on an articulated arm.

: Landmine features two [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]] gimmicks. The first is a spring-loaded front end, retracting his front wheels into his chest during transformation. The second is a sliding panel on each of his shins that retracts when the tail light/knee caps are moved into place.

: In robot mode, his grenade launcher can be back-mounted to make an over-shoulder cannon, or held in his hand. He also has wheels on the soles of his feet, which let him roll in robot mode... in theory, at least, since his heel-wheels rub against his legs, keeping them from spinning freely.

: Like all Japanese "AllSpark Power" toys, the [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] version of Landmine comes with a small Allspark cube accessory that's not included with the [[Hasbro]] version. Landmine himself has a slightly different base plastic color and rubber tires.

:Landmine was later redecoed into ''[[Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' [[Armorhide (Movie)|Armorhide]] and ''[[Dark of the Moon (toyline)|Dark of the Moon]]'' [[Cometter (DOTM)|Cometter]]. His alternate mode was also used as the basis of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Scout Class [[Dune Runner (ROTF)|Dune Runner]], although that toy is an entirely different sculpt.

'''[[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]]''' has enough toys to afford several new cannons.

*'''Ironhide Vs. Desert Blackout''' (Legends "Allspark Battles" two-pack, 2008)

: An all-new Ironhide tooling that packs considerable accuracy into his small, simple design. Unlike the Voyager class toy, Legends Ironhide stores his cannons in the truck's bed. He comes with a desert scheme redeco of Legends class [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]].

: Amusingly, this version of Ironhide is one of only two American toy releases that has full-length exhaust stacks. Also, there are many complaints about the fists sticking out of the back of the truck and the weird truck proportions.

*'''Ironhide''' (Voyager Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID Number:'' '''MA-09'''
**''Accessories:'' Left & right cannons, 4 missiles

:Ironhide transforms into a modified black 2006 [[wikipedia:GMC Topkick|GMC Topkick]] 4500 four-wheel drive pickup truck. Although Hasbro's official stock photos and early packaged [[Prototype|samples]] featured two real-life accurate full length exhaust smokestacks behind the rear cabin, they have been slightly shortened for [[For safety reasons|safety]] and durability reasons for the actual release of the toy. Otherwise, however, the vehicle mode is very accurate to the real prop truck... well, aside from the fact that Ironhide's massive missile launchers are quite visible underneath the vehicle. Despite rumors to the contrary, TakaraTomy's Japanese release of the toy features the same shortened smokestacks as the Hasbro version.

:Ironhide features an [[Automorph]] gimmick in his legs during transformation: As the user swings down his feet, all of the panels that make up his legs automatically shift and fold into place. This gimmick does not affect Ironhide's articulation. Confusingly, the instructions omit the exact positioning of the roof panels and rear window on his back, though they can fold into a compact design for maximum articulation.

:In robot mode,his arm-mounted cannons are inactive while mounted on both arms. However, detaching the left arm cannon and combining it with the right arm creates a '''huge''' functional missile launcher that is almost as big as Ironhide himself. The missile-launching mechanism itself isn't the typical spring-loaded button design, instead relying on a pressure-launch system to fire the missiles from the four barrels.

:The peg that holds his windshield is prone to cracking, which makes it become loose, and might even result in breakage.

:Released as part of the "Allspark Power" refresh of the Movie toyline, Offroad Ironhide is a fairly extensive redeco of Voyager class Ironhide in colors reminiscent of the ''[[Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' [[Go-Bot (G2)|Go-Bot]] [[Motormouth]]. As he's now made of several colors of plastic, he's no longer the most monochromatic toy in the 2007 ''Movie'' line.

*'''Ironhide''' ("Premium Series" Voyager Class, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Left & right cannons, 4 missiles

:Premium Ironhide is a redeco of the previous released Voyager class Ironhide, painted in a gloss black finish, silver trim on his smokestacks, Road Armor winch and side turn signal detailing, but with them are several inaccurate deco additions including silver detailing to the rims, frosted windows, silver paint on the roof ridges and a large Autobot sigil tampographed onto the hood.

:In robot mode Ironhide is considerably more accurate with gold and gunmetal detailing colors which were missing from the first Voyager release. His large cannons are now molded in mostly black plastic, then painted metallic teal with gold detailing.

*'''Cannon Blast Ironhide''' (Fast Action Battler, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 1 missile

:Part of the [[Fast Action Battlers]] line, "Cannon Blast" Ironhide is a simpler version of the larger toy, geared more towards the younger set who might find the big toy too complicated to transform. He still transforms into the customized GMC Topkick. He features a spring-loaded missile launcher in his left cannon. But, thanks to the simpler transformation, the hood and wheels trap his arms below the wheel. He can't punch or aim his cannon at all, and the elbows have no articulation but swiveling that knocks the arm off his body.

:A redeco of the Fast Action Battler Ironhide, this version sports a silver and blue color scheme that is both a reversal of the "Offroad" Ironhide Voyager figure... and seemingly an [[homage]] to the [[:Image:G2Gobot_Ironhide.jpg|''Generation 2'' Go-Bots version]] of his ''[[Generation 1]]'' [[Ironhide (G1)|counterpart]], a redeco of Motormouth (see above).

:Cyber Slammers Ironhide is an amazingly cute GMC Topkick that transforms into an amazingly cute trigger happy weapons specialist. 'Slam' his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along, slowly transforming back up into robot mode. Like most Cyber Slammers, Ironhide manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode. Interestingly enough, this is the only pre-Revenge of the Fallen merchandise to feature Ironhide's scarred right eye.

*'''Ironhide''' (Voyager, 2009)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''RA-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Missile launcher cannon, energy cannon, projectile

: ''[[Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Voyager class Ironhide is a retool of the toy from the 2007 ''Transformers'' movie line. The original arm cannons have been replaced by new, more accurate (and less [[Gimmick|gimmicky]]) cannons that can be connected together and mounted on top of Ironhide's truck bed cover. The truck bed cover and arm mountings for this Ironhide's cannons are unchanged from the 2007 movie line voyagers. So any voyager Ironhide can carry and use both the original and new weapons. The large cannon features screwdriving firing action in which the barrel section twists forward before firing the missile. The small cannon can retract its barrel and has a 5mm hole on its underside that allows it to plug into the peg on the large cannon like a scope if so desired. Since the weapons can connect to each other, the figure (and all other uses of this mold) can hold these and the combined 2007 cannons at once. All four cannons can fit on his truck mode as well, the old ones underneath and the new ones on top. Ironhide's head has been replaced with a more accurate, asymmetrical head. Ironhide also features a new grey colour scheme with some red pin stripes and a [[NEST]] logo on each of his doors.

: According to the box pictures and instructions, the small cannon is misassembled. The gray sliding shaft is actually reversed from the direction it is supposed to be facing. This doesn't affect anything, but can be easily fixed by loosening the screws on the black outer section, sliding out the shaft, then turning it around and putting it back in.

: A packaging variant determines whether the missile is loaded or unloaded in the box.

*'''Recon Ironhide''' (Voyager, 2009)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''RA-26'''
**''Accessories:'' Assault rifle, minigun, knife, bullbar/crossbow, projectile

:Recon Ironhide is an extensive retool, replacing his doors with military Humvee-style armoured door panels, adding a roof/truck bed-mounted lighting rig/weapons rack and replacing his Road Armor fender with a massive bullbar that can be removed and converted into a spring-loaded crossbow weapon. Ironhide's traditional arm-mounted weapons have been replaced with the aforementioned crossbow, a smaller version of his arm mounted cannon, an assault rifle, a minigun, and two combat knives. In one of the first intentional uses of the [[C joint]] system (if not ''the'' first), either knife can be attached to the front of the rifle as a bayonet, and the rifle and mini gun can be clipped to the sides of his arm mounted weapons (the guns and knives can also be attached to the front of his arm cannon). The two rifles and knives can also be attached to his backpack rails in robot mode. Think he's armed enough yet? Additionally, this retool of Ironhide includes a new headsculpt featuring his battle mask.

:In an unfortunate change, all of Ironhide's (newly-tooled) windows are now cast in opaque plastic, compared to the translucent plastic seen on previous versions of this toy.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''AA-03'''

:A new-sculpt Deluxe-sized figure of Ironhide, with an almost ridiculously [[show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] (and surprisingly stable) robot mode. His smokestacks are of the long variety, and his head is the second (after Voyager Recon Ironhide) to be sculpted in "battle mask" mode. The toy comes with a transforming weapon accessory, his missile turret from the [[Revenge of the Fallen (Xbox 360/PS3/PC)|''Revenge of the Fallen'' video game]]. Sadly, this goes at the expense of a movie-accurate cannon for the left arm. The turret can stay attached to his arm when transforming back to his vehicle mode, thanks to a hard to notice joint on the other arm's cannon flipping open to allow more room, ensuring no chance of losing this accessory. In an undocumented feature, the turret can also attach to the back of Ironhide's vehicle mode by slotting two of its legs into two small holes on the truck bed, the third leg can them be positioned forward and slot into a groove on the back of the cab. This can be quite difficult however if (in another undocumented feature) you do not fully extend the turret's legs which are attached to a black piece which allows all 3 legs to fold down further than just pulling each one out individually; this allows for a greater range of movement and allows the turret to be aimed upwards.

{{picsneeded|Japanese version}}

:The [[TakaraTomy]] ''Autobot Alliance'' release of this figure features a significant colouring change: Where Hasbro's release cast much of Ironhide's legs, feet, hands, shoulders and some joints in a bright gunmetal colour, TakaraTomy's uses dark grey plastic.

He also has an [[Automorph]] gimmick on his vehicle front end/chest, wherein pushing it automatically deforms both halves of the front end into his chest, and pulling it reforms it back to the vehicle front end. His arms also look rather strange.

:During the period between 26 December 2010 and 31 January 2011, Hasbro ran their "Supercharge Your Holidays" promotion: for every $20 spent on Hasbro-branded product, customers could receive a free, random product from a list provided by Hasbro. Among the items on the list were "Transformers Combiners and Speed Star Mini-Vehicle" and "Transformers Activator and Speed Star Mini-Vehicle." According to [http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=75487 this discussion thread on Allspark.com], Speed Stars Metal Heroes Ironhide was one of the figures distributed.

*'''GMC TopKick 4500 Ironhide Edition''' (2007)

:As reported at [http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/News/articleId=121589 Edmunds], [http://www.monroetruck.com/index.asp Monroe Truck Equipment], in association with Hasbro, released a GMC TopKick 4500 Ironhide special edition featuring most of the modifications made to the Ironhide vehicle props used in the movie, with the only difference being that the truck will retain its stock orange running lights (the movie used blue) and the large stock sideview mirrors.

:Sadly, installing a grumpy trigger-happy alien robot and deadly high-tech weaponry into the works is not part of the included modifications. Production on the GMC Topkick truck ceased when General Motors exited the medium-duty truck market in 2009.
