Dark Energon Deluxe Wheeljack

If you want a Slicer for your collection then this is your guy, its already a really cool mold which I own as Wheeljack and Deadend, did I hesitate on a 3rd ? yeah I did, I wasn't sure about these guys until they were in hand, what swung it was the fact they are not all translucent, its mostly the arms and lower legs, everything else is pretty much regular solid plastic.

Not going over old ground too much this guy has great articulation and swords so there are 2 good points straight away, his 3rd and best point is the new colours, they really do pop especially the red eyes set against a burnt orange / gold mouth plate. Car mode is nice and sleek and fits together very well without any apparent problems. If your not a repaint fan then consider this for your classics collection, I know Botcon did Slicer but that figure is a brick, this guy is sleek and sexy with turbo handling!

Overall we score Dark Energon Wheeljack a mighty 8/10

Slicer was a European exclusive Action Master, a repaint of G1 Action Master Wheeljack. Later he resurfaced as a BotCon 2010 Exclusive, repainted from Energon Downshift who was modeled after Wheeljack. Here are some images with both:





By the by, BotCon 2010 Slicer can be used as a stand-in for Shattered Glass Wheeljack, who happens to share body and colors. That's why the sculped Autobot symbol is colored purple.
