TF08’s yizhi521 has posted new images of the Animated Wreck-Gar toy, giving us our first look at him in packaging. We can also see his bio here, which you may read below:

“WRECK-GAR means well. All he really wants to do is help folks in need. Unfortunately, he’s a terrible judge of character, and happily helps anyone who asks without thinking about what he’s doing . He has accidentally robbed a few banks, and blasted an AUTOBOTS here and there. His Spark is in the right place anyway. Now that he’s clear on the difference between the AUTOBOTS and the DECEPTICONS, misunderstandings like that should happen less often.”

The look on his face on the front of the box is priceless! Awesome!

I don’t see why they couldn’t. There’s nothing indecent about it, and kids should be able to get the joke.

His head looks like across between Wird Al and a portable radio

I'll be getting this one.

Likely the first Animated figure larger than Deluxe-class I get. Hopefully he'll get the TFCC's G1-style tech spec treatment of the course of the next year... that'd make this a perfect purchase IMO.

That's awesome, that's all from me

He's going to be a fantastic figure. I can't wait for him to come out. Hopefully BBTS will be getting their shipment in, soon. They got Blurr and Swindle when no one expected it, so I'm gonna keep my hopes up.

Jetfire/Jetstorm
Samurai Prowl
Waspinator
Wreck-Gar

...that's going to be one sweet POL shipment.

Really nice looking, but he doesn't come with any sort of accessory or weapon?

He appears to have arm-blade-thingies.

Oh my god. Blurr, Swindle, this guy. The animated range went from not-bad to must-buy in one fell swoop.

He is too awesome to not buy

Darn it, the new TFA and Universe toys are killing my budget already! D: Not that I'm really complaining, but...I'm gonna need more space to put all these guys!

by **Nemesis_Apoc** » Sat Dec 20, 2008 2:03 pm

One of Ultra Magnus's galactic powers and ability is being older thar Ratchet,lol. Yeah, this Animated line is getting cooler and cooler. All I need now is a new Astrotrain,Thrust, and Blaster and I'll be set
