DK-2 Guard Transformers Generations Selects Legacy Deluxe Class Action Figure

Very nice looking repaint of the studio series mold of Ironhide/Ratchet.

Was bought as a gift but ended up keeping for my self because it was so cool!! Very nice lines and seams on this toy! Larger than expected and great detail in the parts!! Love this transformer!!!

It's exactly as described. Good figure. I like the black and red color scheme.

...but a bit loose in the joints. Maybe Mold Fatigue at this point? Still quite worth it, if you need a blushing bot bouncer guarding your Autobot base. He transforms quite easily, his plastic certainly feels sturdy, just don't be alarmed at his hip and arm joints that are quite liberal in movement. Some well placed nail polish will stiffen him right up, but isn't needed at all to enjoy.

A very nice repaint of Ironhide in the original Diaclone colors.This mold was superseded by the studio series Ironhide, which transforms the roof into parts of the robot. This version uses the roof as shield.Diaclone was the original Japanese transforming car toy line, later imported and adapted by Hasbro to become the Transformers. Some toys kept the original colors (Optimus Prime, Jazz, Prowl), but many changed like the Blue Trailbreaker, Red Hoist, White Sideswipe and Red Sunstreaker, almost all of them were later released in Diaclone colors in the Legacy line.

I likes this design when we got Ratchet. I liked it again when we got Ironhide. Now we have the DK-2 Guard, that was the original color of Ironhide when he was still a Diaclone. I absolutely love the way Hasbro is giving us some amazing history brought to life.This figure is the same as the other two iterations. He is a robust robot with a small gun and a big shield. The gun can be stored in the shield. There are 4 cannons that come out to the end of the shield.Transformation is straight forward, with the shield becoming the roof of the van. The one letdown is that the back end of the van is ALL feet. They didn't even try to disguise it to look like feet. But that is Transformers for you. It happens.I am really happy with this version of Black Ironhide, or DK-2 Guard. A fun addition to the collection.

Happy with this purchase. Great figure! Awesome addition to my collection.

The issues for my copy could be due to poor quality control but my copy of DK-2 suffers from side panels popping off and leg joints (specifically the hips) are loose and are incredibly soft. Tabs don't often lock in to place in both robot and car mode which kinda ruins the transformation. However, the figure is relatively easy to pose with, and the paint job is spot-on and perfectly complements the robot's sculpt and car mode. If you don't have this version of Ironhide I suggest you get it if you don't have him yet or if you love the color scheme,
