Ultra high-grade Ironhide w/ Rubsign from Series 1 in 1984. “Hobby fresh” example with impressive 85-85-90 subgrades. Fantastic box that’s virtually free of imperfections. Nostalgic $12.99 Woolworth price tag sticker in the upper corner (many present-day collectors fondly remember purchasing their Transformers from Woolworth). This piece came from an original owner collection of sealed G1 cars – all factory taped. On this one, the tape has lifted from the right side panel. Typically, when pieces have been opened, there is a colorbreak along the corresponding edge – there is no colorbreak whatsoever along the right front edge on this one. We are unsure if the tape lift was pre or post grading. The left panel tape remains firmly secure. No colorbreak along the left front edge. Display window is crystal clear as is the plastic bubble containing Ironhide. The piece was recently graded in February 2026. Amazing fresh-to-market example! Only four examples have graded higher in AFA’s 25+ year history. Encapsulated by AFA 85 (85-85-90), #16087342
