Chinese Transformers/toy forum - Actoys has posted some out of the package toy images of upcoming Transformers Generations Wheeljack.
The images show Wheeljack both in robot and alternate mode. Generations Wheeljack is an updated version and homage to its Generation 1 counterpart (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/ ... ljack/115/).
Wheeljack is also a repaint and remold of Reveal The Shield Tracks (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/ ... acks/2212/).

It took a couple decades... but they got it right! Certainly an improvement on Energon 'jack.

Looks awesome!! Still hard to tell if that's actually totally white, or if it's the same duller hue as used with Jazz. Looks amazing though, I might even get this instead of the UN version.

Another must have and a long wait.

Fantastic. Wheeljack is one of my favourite G1 characters, and they got it perfect. Looks even better than tracks - they've even gone and painted the insides of the doors silver! Not quite digging the spanner idea, but I'll store them on his back panel, and I may even use Track's gun as they have here.

Both Hasbro and United versions looks good, but im finding out im leaning more towards the United Wheeljack cause of the brighter white, the Green metallic stripe and the painted silver ear tabs. Or i may get both and keep the United version in MISB!! sooo many options out there.

Yes! So right on. I'm thrilled about this toy. The Tracks mold is excellent, other than being a tad short, and I'm very glad this doesn't have a stupid rubsign but instead has a proper Autobot symbol. Wheeljack can't get to my desk fast enough! :KREMZEEK:

Nice.
I`d hit, but i`m not sure i will ever see him alive (shops in my area iz still full with 2007 movie toys).
Shame that he is repaint - he`s gonna be first and only for this mold. This car model suits Wheeljack best.

I think I'll be getting the Generations version, the white is really nice pure white unlike what we've been used to from Hasbro lately, but the main thing I prefer over the United version is the clear ear bits he has, a shame their not blue (along with his eyes which are also not blue) but atleast their clear!

Looks awesome. Can't wait to find this at Walmart next year.

Hands down, this is a must have. I actually prefer him in a dull, off white, as apposed to the snow white of United Drift and Jazz, makes it look like he's had a few incidents and paint jobs.

Damn you Hasbro for not continuing Generations in the UK! :sad:

The perfect Wheeljack!! Well done Hasbro & Takara Tomy.

I'm going with Hasbro on Wheeljack as I prefer the white they've used and love the red and green stripes.
I'm personally not a fan of the metallic green used on United's.
