Fictional biography
Ironpaw has too much pride. That’s not just a pun, it’s his biggest weakness. In fact, we mention that because it is his only weakness.Loyal, fierce, strong, brave, capable…pick an adjective. Ironpaw has everything it takes to be a major player in the RoBot army, the only thing that could hold him back is his lack of a robot mode.
Lesser ‘bots would use that as an excuse; a reason to be lazy and ineffectual, and grow bitter. Not Ironpaw. Instead he has taken all the aspects of his form that could be considered weaknesses and turned them into strengths.
His smaller stature requires less energy to run, and his ability to track the un-trackable is second to none. He cunningly combines these skills with his ability to mass-shift into a small cassette to hide in the smallest of areas, and often magnetizes himself to objects to allow himself to cover vast distances using zero energy. If you put all these factors together, you have a tracker who will never give up, never back down, and who always gets his target.
Comics
Ironpaw appeared in the 2013 story Re-Evolution. While on a stakeout for the Homeland RoBot Police Force Ironpaw came into conflict with War Panther and War Rhino.
Toys
- Keith's Fantasy Club CST-02J Ironpaw Justice Version (unreleased)
- An original mold by Keith's Fantasy Club, based on a custom kit made by Eagle's TF. Turns from robotic lion to microcasette. Comes with case, collector card and instructions.
- The microcassette mode of this toy is thicker than a normal microcassette, meaning it may not fit inside some toys that only hold one microcassette. It will fit into toys that are designed to hold multiple cassettes at the same time by taking up the space of two tapes.
- Ironpaw Justice Version shares a mold with Ironpaw Evil Version and Ironpaw Nightstalker Version.
