Probably best not to focus on the Ironhide toy's flimsy robot mode, eh? Before Transformers there was Diaclone, a Japanese toy line about human controlled robots that could shift between vehicle and humanoid modes. Presumably, the toys that would become Sunstreaker and Ironhide were rescue bots in the thrall of the future clothes kid glimpsed at the ad's close. Funnily enough, when majority fiction control reverted back to Japan, we got Super-God Masterforce, a Transformers series in which human pilots changed into heads and engines to control lifeless robot giants.
