  • TakaraTomy release date: February 26, 2022
  • Accessories: Missile launcher/hammer
Promoting the Kingdom season of the Netflix War for Cybertron Trilogy cartoon, the Deseeus Army Drone is a redeco of Siege Ironhide with an extensive paint wash coating to represent accumulated grime and battle damage. They have multiple 5 mm ports and 3 mm posts to accommodate the C.O.M.B.A.T. System/F.O.S.S.I.L. Technology weaponry and "Fire Blast" effects, respectively. They also come with a huge missile launcher compatible with the C.O.M.B.A.T. System which can also convert into a hammer and has 3 mm posts as well. As the name implies, this toy could reasonably be used as an army-builder.
The production flaw of the original Ironhide version of this mold (where the molded hinges on his legs were too small to house the side panels from the vehicle mode properly, which caused them to pop off at the slightest pressure) has been fixed, and the side panels are attached more securely.
This mold was also retooled to make Siege Crosshairs and Ratchet, differently retooled into Earthrise Ironhide, Ratchet and War for Cybertron Trilogy Shattered Glass Ratchet.
This toy, like most of the Netflix War for Cybertron Trilogy toys, is a Walmart exclusive in the U.S. and Canada. Like the rest of its Deluxe Class wave, Deseeus Army Drone was found in Walmart stores on March 13[2] before an official unveiling.
