Before Wheeljack joined the cause, the Autobots lagged badly behind the Decepticons in technology, With their brilliant new scientist's innovative mind - And the willingness of a few brave warriors to take part in extremely dangerous experiments - the Autobot arsenal quickly caught up to their enemies'.

If you want me to continue to do so I would suggest a little respect when it has been proven again that I am legit and have come with the goods time and time again.
If you wish to remain immature and bandwagon with previous hobbies who have questioned my legitimacy that is your choice. Also you should base your assumptions on facts. I have Delivered those and will continue to deliver those as long as I am part of this hobby!
What is this a reaction to? I don't see anyone questioning your legitimacy, the only real negative comments I see are like 2 typical "Bwah stupid bayformers!" you get in every movie related thread.
This is in reaction to a post on another website not this one.

Or would that be too sensible and idea considering the molds exist and not being used?

That's just insulting. This is Wheeljack we're talking about. His original incarnation pulled a freaking bomb out of his back-pocket to hand off to Bumblebee and Spike to go blow up a @#$*# mine for crying out loud. They've neutered him in this version. He's supposed to be an EOD techs worst nightmare. Ugh... the car mode, the bot mode... I'm actually glad this version never made it to the shelves. I'd sooner take the Prime/BH version of 'Jack over this and I can't stand most of the Prime/BH molds.
They did a fairly decent job with a Movieverse Brawn (I like Firetrap in the role of Brawn better though) so why couldn't they come up with something better for this one?
And no, I'm not just hating on it for the sake of hating or going into some G1 fueled nerd rage despite how my opening comments sounded. They really did come out with some amazing molds for the characters that didn't get screen time and I could rave about a few of them for days so it's not that I have some kind of bias. This is me genuinely disappointed after having seen them do so much better with other characters.

The sensible thing to do would be to just release them under the Generations banner.
Which probably won't happen.
Wasn't it Spike's dad who did that with Bee?T-Macksimus wrote:This is Wheeljack we're talking about. His original incarnation pulled a freaking bomb out of his back-pocket to hand off to Bumblebee and Spike to go blow up a @#$*# mine for crying out loud.

And that he is Wheeljack.
Good thing that pretty much stopped when Beast Hunters began. Now it's every figure of Waves 1 and 2 of each toyline that shelfwarm the toy aisles.Deathscythetransform wrote:cybeast wrote:If only this get released instead of all that yellow car variant that keep getting a release (no offense for BB fans, but I'm kind of sick seeing literally BB shelfwarming everywhere here).

I totally agree with you a 100% my brother!!
Bumblebee saturated the market with his zillions of variants...
