| '''Ironclad''' is a boxer. He has a defensive approach to the sport, and though he is slow, his large fists (and everything else) usually make up for this handicap.

| Ironclad was an architectural and engineering genius who worked with the [[Wrecker]]s for a time. His work even impressed the [[Technobot (G1)|Technobot]]s when he recommended an upgrade to their combining process. With body modifications all around, Ironclad would have joined the Technobots and linked with a more energy-efficient [[Afterburner (G1)|Afterburner]] to create a new arm. His design was ultimately rejected, but the idea was used to incorporate [[Scrounge (G1)|Scrounge]] and [[Boltax|Cybaxx]] instead, adding the full knowledge of the [[Underbase]] to [[Computron (G1)|Computron]]'s databanks.

| Later, after the razing of Cybertron by [[Thunder Mayhem]], [[Impactor (G1)|Impactor]] retained his late comrade's design schematics. He used this information to upgrade himself and [[Bluestreak (G1)|Bluestreak]] with combiner remodels intended for Ironclad and [[Lightspeed (G1 Technobot)|Lightspeed]], and incorporate them into the new [[Wreckage (G1)|Wreckage]] combiner. {{storylink|Lively Pursuit}}

| ==Notes==
| |
| *The physical description of the ''Of Masters and Mayhem'' incarnation of Ironclad is based on an earlier [[Hasbro]] plan for ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Computron. "Lively Pursuit" describes Ironclad as a "mustard tan and gray" redeco of Rook, using the alternate [[Brawl (G1)#CombinerWars|Brawl]] head we [[Brawn (SG)|previously glimpsed]] in ''[[Another Light]]'' with a red faceplate. It combines with an "energy-efficient" Afterburner for arm mode, presumably the Legends Class [[Groove (G1)#Generations|Groove]] mold.
