In this video, shows wheeljack amazingly good, a must have!

Unnecessary. It also doesn't look so good neither.

A neat little hidden detail and an Animated homage. A shame, though, about the giant hole in his head...

Woah, did you guys deliver!

I recall it correctly, even Frank Springer rendered Soundwave in one panel during their "reactivation" with a mouth in Marvel Comic's "More than Meets the Eye #1" then suddenly in the next panel............with a mouth plate. Go figure.

But in Jose Delbo's case, he might have mistook the curved beak like pattern in the original Soundwave toy's mouth plate as a mouth. he did the same with the Seekers having only one "ear"

Now how about some more G1 Decepticons?

Megatron=check
Seekers=check
Cassettes=check
Soundwave=check
Exhaust=check

Next in line? G1 season 1......Redesigned Megatron, Reflector, Shockwave, Insecticons, Coneheads, Dezaras?

Now that the cat's out of the bag, do you think Exhaust will also sport a hidden face?

The Coneheads and Reflector would be amazing, infact you can take my money now!

You on your phone? Because it shows as a weird icon on phones indeed, I just checked it.
On the PC it shows Live Action Movie Optimus with the text "GIVE ME YOUR FACE".

The net is trolling me for some reason... Sorry for the confusion.

I think it's actually a hotlink countermeasure, as some sites (like TFU.info) don't like their bandwidth stolen.

It's a weird addition. I'm not seeing anything Animated-ish out of it, either.

A speaker mouth? Not surprising alright.

that is AWESOME. so suitable. it would be really cool if that was under soundwaves faceplate.

Oh yes, kudos to HasTak for Soundwave and the cassettes. But we still need a new Megatron and an MP11-style Skywarp before we can check off those boxes, IMHO.

Really hoping for those next, followed by Reflector, Shockwave, and the Coneheads. How about a Coneheads 3-pack?

I'm surprisingly excited by Exhaust, too, but I'm more eager to round out the '84-'85 cast. I dunno if he'll have a face... He kinda already has one, no? His mask is more alien-face-like than the other masked characters, methinks.

Hope someone has the soundwave/soundblaster to show off his face

LOL. They mispelled his name on the coin envelope. Engrish strikes again!

I think he looks great, just wish he came with two shoulder launchers like the toy had. But oh well, I can't wait to add him to my shelf.

Since when was Wheeljack old? (Besides DOTM!)

For those of you who ordered this at BBTS, it's processing.

Mine's coming from Japan! It'll be here in 2-3 weeks cause I chose the slow shipping.. With my big POL coming from BBTS today I think the slow shipping will be good.

Young people can have beards. I'm still in my early twenties and I could easily grow a full beard or goatee if I stopped shaving for a week.

Lol. Yeah. A guy I once worked with, who's in his late twenties, had thick handlebar mustache earlier this year. He goes through phases of having outrageous mustaches or outrageous beards... sometimes having both at the same time

How about MP combiner (like stunticons or constructicons) I know is too much to ask, but 3rd parties are on that already. IMO computron should fit perfect with Grimlock and shake hands with generations Metroples

growing em since 1992 (17)

Got a chance to remove MP WJ face.........it's a mad, mad scientist, lol:

Masterpiece Wheeljack can be summed up in one word: WOW!

I thought Masterpiece Prowl would be tough to beat, but man did they knock it out of the park with Wheeljack. Holy cows is he awesome!!!

Gallery coming tomorrow.

Have been looking forwards to a new Masterpiece figure for a while now and my Wheeljack arrived yesterday. Thing is, Im usually pretty keen to get the box open and check the new figure out when I get home from work but for some reason that wasnt there yesterday.

I opened it up, checked for paint issues (none) and then set about transforming him. Put his various accessories on and then stood him on a shelf. There was no buzz or wow factor for me.

I dont know why. Maybe all the pics and video spoiled it, that would be my fault for looking. Maybe I'm done with collecting. Maybe just a bad day. Bumbleebee is next and pre-ordered so will see how things go.
