New Images of FWI-02 Weapons Upgrade for DOTM Leader Ironhide

Those actually look pretty good. I just got Ironhide for christmas thank god haha but these look fantastic the right arms gun is a slight improvement but the left arm gun is a HUGE improvement!

Leader Ironhide, why must you suck so badly when these are so awesome?

Why do you think it sucks/ Hes the best Ironhide we've gotten in the past 3 years

Those cannons are awesome! And we get a pair of blades. I didn't order the Leader SS upgrades, but I think these are a must!

Well, to be honest, both of our posts are matters of opinion. So, with that in mind...

He's out of scale.
He's incredibly simplistic in many ways.
He's suffering from kibbleitis.
He's suffering from an ugly color scheme.

For the price they're asking, he just doesn't cut it for me. The Voyager might be undersized, but it looks fantastic, the transformation is rather complex and for the price? Heh. SOLD.

I like the idea & designs but i'm not willing to spend $30+ for these weapons. I'd rather pay 3rd party toy prices for whole figures & not accessories.

I find it kinda sad that the same 3rd party company who created the FW1-01 Leader sized HFTD Starscream accessories,didn't bother creating a newer seeker style G-1 head sculpt.

You forgot to mention that he can't straighten his legs and the knees have only two positions. Also, his wheels (which shouldn't be visible in bot mode) severely limit his shoulders which are set too far back. Oh yeah, limited head movement AFTER you break the seal with a hard twist and a sickening screech.

They look a little big on the leader class figure. The actual guns in the movie weren't too much bigger than the guys arms. Maybe it's just me, I dunno. Either way, I wouldn't get the leader class figure anyway, I'm fine with his recon/jungle attack figure if I want one with lots of weapons.

this looks pretty cool to me
i know its 19plus shipping from RKingdom
any domestic sellers have a quote up yet?

damn... a reasonable price. i am impressed. why can all third party stuff cost this good?

Don't have Leader IH, but I foresee these cannons and swords becoming part of Ultimate Optimus Prime

The options are nice. The FWI-01 upgrade could attach to the vehicle mode. Does the FWI-02 attach to the truck mode creating a "stealth force" mode? If so i'm sold.

I still can't find one

the coolest feature about those swords is that there's what looks to be little handles on the backs of each. I forsee pictures of him duel weilding these blades.

He could use a pants upgrade a lot more than these. The blue jeans on this fig just don't cut it...

Those look awesome! If I ever recover financially from Christmas, I'll get them. I hope the final paint apps are good, w/ silver and gold where appropriate. Those blades are very fitting too. I like the extra mech bits on the arm attachments, they look great.

An FWIW, a simple black paint marker on his legs go a loooong way to fixing him.

i quite like leader ironhide.. and these add ons are awesome.. however, the only thing that would make these better is if they just made all new forearms.

Color me impressed. If BBTS gets them in, I'll pick up a set.
