Here's another one of my sketches. It's less polished, but I like how it came out. Dunno how people will feel about WJ without his facemask, but it's still there in battle mode. I had this idea that he should look something like Doc Brown from Back to the Future, but it kinda melted into the concept of mad scientist. I tried to emulate a lab coat in a way, and the bald head plate just seemed right, it made the ear flaps look more like crazy hair.

Suh-weet. I can definately see that in the toon. And his mask covers in battle like Primes. Nice touch.

That's SO Wheeljack! I love what you did with his battle face mask. In Animated, maybe 'Jack would finally get a mouth.

He doesnt quite have the "crazy scientist" look, but I really like your take on him, it fits the animated style very well!

WOW!! I really like that a LOT! It so says "Wheeljack!!" to me! And the face-shield is a nice G1-Easter-Egg-touch! Nice pic indeed! :grin:

I can see the Doc Brown infuence. "Bumblebee! We've gotta go back... to the future!"

Great Scott! This is heavy

If they did use something like this, I suppose it would be too much to ask to get Christopher Lloyd to do the voice

That's awesome!
I would love to see this animated.
One eye bigger than the other! That would let him look more like a mad scientist!
