Ironside

Ironside is a Mini-Con from the Unicron Trilogy continuity family or an Autobot from the Generation 1 continuity family (via the 2010 Transformers toyline).

Anxiously awaiting the special guest appearance by Bruce Lee.

Ironside transforms into a gray tank. Sometimes he is a Mini-Con; other times he is a Micromaster.

Fiction

Ask Vector Prime

Vector Prime first noticed Ironside in Aurex 503.01 Gamma, but noted that a Micromaster version of him existed in Primax 209.0 Gamma, and at least some of his compatriots existed as full-sized Autobots and Decepticons in Primax 1005.19 Gamma. Ask Vector Prime, 2015/07/24

Toys

Transformers (2010)

• Minicon 8 Pack (multipack, 2010)

Ironside is a redeco of Classics Broadside, transforming from an M1 Abrams main battle tank into a robot with a mini-gun for a right hand. This mold has gained notoriety for its refusal to stand up in robot mode due to its small feet.

He was only available as part of the European-market exclusive "Minicon 8 Pack" box set with Buckshot, Barrel Roll, Iron Claw, Diveplane, Airlift, Heavy-Liftor, and Reachout.

This mold was also used to make Heavytread and Universe (2008) Treadshot.

Notes

• The Minicon[sic] 8 Pack gives no indication whatsoever what continuity these eight Mini-Cons hail from. In 2015, the Facebook version of Ask Vector Prime simultaneously established the pack members as Unicron Trilogy Mini-Cons and Generation 1 sometimes-Micromasters.
