I hope there is an Energon O's referrence!!

I hope for all of that!

With i being called "Con Job" and it saying it doesnt go t plan means that wheeljack is gonna be some scumbag character who gets booted off somehow in this episode. Just my opinion, but it seems kinda obvious.

Yep, It's the other Wheeljack. Good call.
He is an old friend of on of the main cast after all. Honestly we should have all seen this coming from a mile away.
Watched the promo again... Now that I'm a little more awake I can see I may not be so right about this. Still, why the swords? It's pretty clear that this is an homage to the Armada character, but I was kinda hoping Drift could make his first TV appearance in this show, and now the Samurai seat is taken.

For now, I'll assume Wheeljack is coming in alone to go out alone, but if we're lucky enough to see him stay, then alongside Ratchet, there's then an opening for Perceptor. With a cast of three available for tech support, the fighters are freed to start roaming further afield for longer durations.Mission plots can then be simultaneously overlapped to thicken the plots and so on. I'd like that.

Personally, tho I greatly want to see a G1 reunion alongside the new Arcee & Bulkhead standard core cast groupings (already marred with CJs death & Ironhides mysterious absence), I am now becoming interested in seeing the Movieverse wreckers (plus more new wreckers) get incorporated into Prime as well. I'm thinking it may be in the works but they're untouched so far because one may die in Dotm.Just sayin'.

Also, tho it would be nice to see Arcee get more team-mates from her class (and a departure from bike sized females only!) I hope sincerely they don't redo Animated Prowl (bodywise) and instead consider Groove or a newer Autobiker such as Backfire et al.(Animated Prowl personality wise, or Armada Red Alert Personality wise- no complaints from me!!!).
