Ironhide (G1)
| The name or term "Ironhide" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Ironhide (disambiguation). |
Ironhide is an Autobot in the Generation 1 continuity.
Ironhide is one of the oldest and toughest Autobots on Optimus Prime's team. "They don't make them like they used to" is an apt description of Ironhide -- he's yesterday's model, but he's built to last.
Gruff and ornery, he prefers actions to words, and dislikes talk for talk's sake. (He wouldn't enjoy being paired up with Bluestreak.) But though he may be rough around the edges, he's still optimistic and upbeat. The upside to being through more than your share of trouble means trouble ain't so big a scare anymore.
In Transformers: The Movie, Ironhide was on a shuttle along with a group of other Autobots headed for earth when the shuttle was attacked by Megatron and a team of Decepticons. Ironhide bravely fought off the Decepticons, but was not powerful enough to stop the enemy, and he was mercilessly killed by Megatron.
