Ironbar

Background

Ironbar is Aunty Entity's main enforcer in Bartertown.

During the events of Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (1985) played by Angry Anderson

Max pulls out his shotgun neat The Collector, a group of Aunty's Guards start to approach Max and he shoots the horsehair crest off of one. Ironbar continues to approach Max, until Max threatens to kill The Collector. Max asks for one hour to find Jedediah and The Collector makes him a counteroffer, 24 hours to get back what was stolen from him in exchange for his life. Max agrees, but before he is let inside Bartertown, he is forced to leave his weapons with the Armorer.

As Max enters Bartertown, he sees his camels and wagon being sold at the House of Good Deals by Dr. Dealgood. Max is pushed forward by Aunty's Guards and brought before Aunty Entity. The Collector tells Aunty about Max wanting to make a deal and she has Ton Ton Tattoo play a sad song as she tells Max her story, that before the collapse, she was a nobody and then became someone, a survivor. She takes an apple and offers one to Max and while she thinks he is distracted, takes a loud bite from her apple. Max is attacked, but manages to fight off Ironbar, two of Aunty's Guards and The Collector. Aunty points a hand crossbow at Max and congratulates him on being the first to pass the test. She offers Max fuel, a vehicle and animals in exchange for Max killing a man. She then uses a periscope to show Max Underworld, and The Collector explains to Max how methane from pig feces is used to power Bartertown. He continues that Underworld is controlled by Master Blaster, The Master, who is a little person engineer and The Blaster, his giant enforcer. Max is told the easiest way to see Master Blaster up close is to take a job shoveling pig feces. Later, Master Blaster is riding around in Bartertown on Max's vehicle and Max stands in front of him and yells the vehicle belongs to him. Master has Blaster grab Max by the throat and as he is about to kill Max, a group of Aunty's Guards point their rifles at Master and Ironbar orders Master to listen to the law. Master challenges Max to a fight in the Thunderdome and Aunty agrees to it. Dr. Dealgood explains to everyone why Thunderdome was created and then the rules to Thunderdome and the fight begins. Blaster at first is easily beating Max until Max uses his whistle to cause Blaster to drop his weapon and cover his ears. Max uses a large hammer and knocks Blaster's helmet off, revealing him to be mentally handicapped. Max yells out to Aunty that killing a mentally handicapped man wasn't part of the deal and Aunty has Ironbar kill Blaster. For breaking his deal, Max is forced to face the wheel. He is brought before it by Dr. Dealgood's Dolls and Max spins the wheel, which lands on gulag. Max is then brought out to the desert where he has a large mask placed on his head and he is placed backwards on a horse with his hands tied. Ironbar smacks the back of the horse and it walks out into the desert with a small container of water hanging from a pole in front of it. Master is brought to Underworld and when he refuses to fix something, Ironbar has him lowered into the pig pen. Aunty walks into the area and has Ironbar bring Master back up and tells Master to do whatever Ironbar tells him.

Later, Ironbar sees Scrooloose, who is sitting above him, motioning to the others. Mr. Skyfish swings on a rope and saves Scrooloose and Monkey and manages to knock one of the Bodybuilders into the pig pen. Ironbar starts shooting at Max and the children and Pigkiller uses a shovel to knock the other Bodybuilder unconscious before using bolt cutters to free himself and Master. Master uses a grain chute to knock Ironbar unconscious. Pigkiller uses a truck to drive along a track leading from Underworld and they are followed by a large convoy consisting of Aunty, Aunty's Guards, Ironbar, Fur Trader and Cowboy. Aunty and her group attack the truck and attached train cars. Ironbar shoots a harpoon into the truck, impaling Pigkiller in the leg and Max rams the vehicle with Ironbar in it, causing it to crash and leaving Ironbar stuck on the front of the truck. Ironbar tries to grab Master and Max kicks him onto a train exhaust pipe. Ironbar motions for Fur Trader to help him until Fur Trader's motorcycle hits a concrete curb and he flies to his death. Mr. Skyfish uses a hacksaw to cut the pipe Ironbar is hanging from and the truck comes to a halt in front of a berm. Max and his group get into the Flying Jalopy, but as Jedediah is driving it forward, he tells Max that they are overloaded and there's not enough runway between them and Aunty's group. Max jumps out of the plane while Scrooloose drives up and gets into the plane. Max takes the vehicle Scrooloose drove in and drives it straight towards Aunty's group, killing Ironbar and many of Aunty's Guards.
