Ever since The Transformers made their way to the big screen in , there's been more than a fair share of violent and tragic Autobot deaths. Where The Transformers: The Movie killed Optimus Prime, affecting a generation, the live-action movies erased many beloved G1 characters. From Jazz to Ratchet, the deaths were not only final but gruesome. That said, the most brutal of them all was likely the tragic death of Ironhide. However, it was revealed that he had aligned with Megatron sometime before meeting with Optimus Prime and, in his big heel turn, shot Ironhide in the back with a rust gun. Not only was the fast-talking weapons specialist betrayed, but he wasn't even given a warrior's death. Since then, characters like Hound tried to fill the void left by Ironhide, but the best choice to replace the gruff Autobot has always been none other than Kup.

For me, Optimus Prime had a good death. Yeah, Megatron got in the fatal blow, but Optimus still kicked his ass. If any competent Autobot medics were there, they could have saved him. His death scene is sad, but being surrounded by a bunch of characters we only just met makes it feel disassociated. Heck, the only one that we have seen him interact with before is Perceptor, and all he does is say Optimus is toast. That this guy melts an innocent celluloid shoe without even the ability to talk brings to mind animal torture, which is worse since nobody watching him did anything to stop it. Watching a bad guy like Gaston in Beauty and the Beast or Sykes in Oliver and Co is always something looked forward to and not really shocking. But then you get to the shuttle scene just a few minutes into the movie. In probably the most brutal death the Transformers have seen — at least until the Bay films — Megatron blasts the wounded Ironhide in the face. The explosion leaves no question as to whether the Autobot survives. Until Optimus joins the Matrix, this is the last death you see on screen, even though other Autobot corpses are shown in the turret.

Ironhide was the Autobots ' resident weapons specialist and Optimus Prime 's old friend. He probably had enough replacement parts to build a small army, but Ironhide doggedly refused to roll over and die for anyone. He would fight to the bitter end and take down more than his fair share of Decepticons in the process. Ironhide didn't always see optic to optic with Prime, despite their friendship. He was perhaps the more practical of the two, and more than a little trigger happy, so he could be more willing to push the Autobot code to the limit if he thinks it will get the job done faster.

This article is a featured article , and considered to be one of the most informative on this wiki. Ironhide is one of the oldest and toughest Autobots, and has been on Optimus Prime 's team for a long time. 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.

Inspired by his words, Ironhide debated no further, and the Autobots set out for the location of the AllSpark, Hoover Dam.

Like x 5. But Ironhide noticed something odd about the battle. Like x 8. This made it difficult for Ironhide to use his guns on the Decepticon, and even trying to punch Reverb resulted in Ironhide being knocked backwards and being hit by Reverb's sonic cannon. Thousands of years ago, with Cybertron's energy reserves dwindling and the Transformer race splintering into warring factions, Ironhide was part of the Thetacons, violent militants who rejected the teachings of Sentinel Prime. He was part of the battle to seize the retrieved AllSpark from Sentinel's band, but when that group used the AllSpark to revitalise Cybertron proving Sentinel was right all along , the Thetacons lay down their arms. When Divebomb attempted to use Lennox, Galloway and another NEST soldier as a hostage to extricate himself from the situation, Ironhide blew a hole through the Decepticon, telling him not to threaten humans. Apparently in , Ironhide was killed by Sentinel Prime, just like in the original timeline. Ratchet recommended leaving Earth , but Ironhide argued he believed Optimus would not want them to abandon the humans, apparently becoming substitute leader of the Autobots in the process. During this relatively quiet period, Ironhide also began mentoring Landmine in the ways of battle. In a reality where the Decepticons won, Ironhide was part of the Autobot resistance on Earth and was in contact with reinforcements from Cybertron.
