Wheeljack is a Tracks remold? That would explain his proportions a bit, but now I'm torn. Two of my favourites sharing the same body-type... Meh, I'll get both.

I guess people were right about Wheeljack being a Tracks repaint. Kinda dissapointing since I hate the new tracks mold. I love WJ, but I may have to thing about getting him now. Oh, who am I kidding. I'm going to get him for sure, but I still won't like those chicken legs the mold sports.

Hey Mr. Seibertron.com, is this from an anonymous source that you trust? I'm skeptical of this copy. It seems too thin to be of any use to retailers.

Just my .02.

We've had this source for over a year now. It's legit.

Yes, it's legit. It provides exactly the information needed to help retailers make a decision about order quantities.

It's interesting that the figures are "rated". I've never seen that before.

Indeed. I wonder if it's a rating as to how popular the toy is thought to be to purchasers or some other metric?

I think that's exactly what it is, though I wonder how honest the ratings are. Is there ever a 3? or even better ... a 1?

"Please rate the toy's desirability on a scale from 8 to 10, eight being 'highly desirable' and 10 being 'customers will break kneecaps to get this figure'".

Comment by Badassimus Prime Oct 9, 2010
Well I'm slightly disappointed in the confirmation of Wheeljack being a Tracks repaint. I was hoping for a new mold but, what can you do? I just hope Hasbro/Takara put in enough love so as to differentiate the two characters besides paint and new head sculpt. I'll reserve judgement for now until I see pics. Heck, I'm still holding off from preordering until I see some Hasbro versions of these. The prices on the United line is WAY over my budget especially when I get 2-3 of each mold.

I would've been very interested to see what these rating would've been for Tuner Mudflap and some of the other ROTF fail-figs

Considering preordering a load of these, just one query, when do you pay for preorders on BBTS?
Just in case i wanna cancel any
Re: Product descriptions from Transformers United order sheet (view post)
Comment by RK_Striker_JK_5 Oct 9, 2010
Hmm, don't mind Wheeljack as a Tracks redo, as long as the head's different along with some other changes.

You don't pay until it arrives in stock. One of the main reasons I love BBTS

Hnnnn....It's disappointing to hear that 'Jack is going to be a repaint, a little on the bittersweet side too. However, the plus is that the Tracks mold is simply fantastic looking, and as long as he's got his classic looking head, and a sweet homage to his original colours, then this is still a major win in my book. Can't wait to see some photos!

Now, all the being said, I reeeeeeeally hope that Kup has his own mold.

The more I look at the Tracks mold, the more I think that Tracks is the repaint and Wheeljack is the original design. We'll see when we get some more pics.

Heh, that sounds reasonable, actually.

I'm guessing they put out Tracks first, to get the mold some notoriety.

I'm sure there will be many a fan who will complain, but I'm sure even more will embrace it and make it sell out like hotcakes.

Don't have the original pic handy, but I'm wondering if Tracks', wings which stick out the side in robot mode, could be re-angled more like G1 Wheeljack's back mounted wing-panel things? Might work.
