Ironhide Truck Transformers

2011 Ironhide Truck Transformers

Of all of the GM rides enjoying Autobots in Transformers, one of the favorites about here is Ironhide (previously mentioned), who rolls as being a completely tricked GMC TopKick 6500 pickup truck when he's not kicking ass, taking names, and daunting Chihuahuas as the Autobots' weapons specialist. Monroe Truck Equipment, which modifies rides such as the TopKick for company proprietors, has partnered up with Hasbro to supply the ultimate adult Transformers toy: a near-exact Ironhide replica (minus the large transforming robot component, obviously).

Ironhide buyers get twin big-rig-style smokestacks, 20" black wheels wearing massive tires in lieu with the TopKick's standard dualies, custom, powder-coated front and rear bumpers, as well as a monster winch up front. The only actual variations we see on the Monroe Truck edition are the amber running lights (Ironhide's are blue) as well as the non-aero (but far more useful) mirrors.
