Transformers animated ironhide
Halfway there, to their surprise, they saw Bumblebee leading a column of Sector Seven assault vehicles, so Ironhide and the rest of the Autobots joined the unit.ĭuring the final battle at Mission City, Ironhide realized that the F22 Raptor that appeared to be providing Captain Lennox's troops with air cover was in fact his former comrade Starscream. Inspired by his words, Ironhide debated no further, and the Autobots set out for the location of the AllSpark, Hoover Dam. The next morning, when Optimus Prime was pondering their next move, Ironhide asked why they had to save the humans, prompting Prime to go into one of his long speeches about freedom and sacrifice, concluding that the humans need to pay for the mistakes of Cybertron-kind and if they needed to be, he would destroy the AllSpark by fusing it with his own spark. Unfortunately, their escape was to be short-lived, as Bumblebee was captured by the mysterious agents after saving Sam and Mikaela's lives. Optimus reminded him that they don't hurt humans and scolded his weapons expert, to which Ironhide meekly responded that he merely thought it should remain an option.Īfter Sam, Mikaela and his parents were captured by Sector Seven, Ironhide got a real good chance to show off his cannons when he and the other Autobots totally outclassed the S7 agents by instantly disarming them of their weapons, then rescuing the boy and his girl. He also suggested shooting the parents, as they were interfering with Sam's search for Captain Witwicky's glasses. Ironhide relented, despite the fact that it would cause rust. This unpleasant situation was made worse by Sam Witwicky's frantic refusal to let him shoot it. Going to the Witwicky residence, Ironhide had lubricant released upon him by a rodent. After meeting Sam Witwicky and Mikaela Banes, Ironhide displayed an eagerness to show off his cannons and made a classic Clint Eastwood impression to show it by saying "You feeling lucky, punk?"(which earned him an instant reproof from Optimus). He linked up with Jazz and Ratchet, and they proceeded to the rendezvous point, where they met up with Optimus and Bumblebee. He scanned their GMC Topkick truck and transformed, leaving the residence. As he climbed out of the water, a little human girl asked him if he was (of all things) the tooth fairy before he quickly hid behind some trees when the child's parents exited the house. Responding to Bumblebee's call for assistance, Ironhide and the other Autobots under Optimus Prime's direct command came to Earth, with the old soldier landing in a suburban pool. Tasked with finding other Autobots scattered throughout the galaxy and rendezvous on Earth, they left Cybertron in various escape pods. Ironhide was among the Autobots fending off a wave of Decepticons led by Shockwave and Soundwave and was eventually ordered to retreat by Optimus Prime. Following the Decepticon retreat, and Optimus's news that Megatron and possibly the AllSpark were located on Earth, Ironhide opined that Starscream would be reluctant to go there because he wanted Megatron to stay lost. He managed to avoid getting hit for the most part, though he did suffer some damage to his armor. The return of Optimus and Bumblebee meant another battle, and Ironhide was matched up against Bonecrusher. Jazz was badly damaged as a result, and Ironhide had to work with Ratchet to return them both safely to the Ark. The plan might have succeeded had Starscream not chosen that moment to return from the nearby planet. After the fight, Optimus departed to help Bumblebee, and left Ironhide in charge.ĭuring a subsequent Decepticon attack, Ironhide and Jazz employed a new plan wherein Jazz distracted the foe, and Ironhide attempted to approach the Nemesis from a sensor blind-spot. He and Jazz ejected Bonecrusher from the Arks hangar. Ironhide and Jazz backed up Optimus when the Decepticons sprang an attack on them, though Ironhide was growing increasingly uncomfortable with the passive tactics they were employing. As Bumblebee followed the ship down to a planet, Ironhide appeared to express concern for his fellow, though he later dismissed this as not wanting their numbers depleted. Though he was all in favor of destroying the mystery craft in case it was a Decepticon trap, Optimus disagreed, believing it to be of alien construction. Ironhide identified it as Decepticon, but on second glance wasn't so sure. 1.13 Transformers: Age of Extinction (2014)ĭuring their long search for the AllSpark, the crew of the Ark encountered a strange ship in an abandoned star system.1.12 Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011).1.9 Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009).
