Just managed to get it!
I must admit it's the first time I finished a game while whispering "Don't Crash, Don't Crash, Don't Crash, Don't Glitch, Please Please Please Don't Crash!" During the ending.
5 full runs, 17 Game starts. That Platinum Trophy sure was a lot of work.
Now to take a break and wait until all the DLC and, more importantly, decent patches are out before playing again.

No Looking Back, for finishing Ironman on Classic, was pretty tedious since surviving the early going and glitches without saving is hell. Most of my restarts were for that.
The rest of my restarts were pretty much for the first mission of the Impossible run, stupid cheating sectoids on terrible maps!
The one I'm most proud of was Wet Work, finishing a very difficult Abduction Mission in 5 turns or less on Classic or higher, I did that one in my Impossible run, got lucky on the map, and managed to kill 6 of the 12 aliens(3 Mutons, 1 Cyberdisc, 2 Drones) on the very first turn due in part to a well placed rocket and some incredible luck with a panicking soldier who just blasted the Muton who had just intimidated him. Then it was a race to murder 6 Floaters in 4 turns.

As an old school X-COM vet, my hat's off to you sir. Well done!
