The Hub has been running a new promo for this week's episode of Transformers: Prime featuring everybody's favorite Autobot mad scientist, Wheeljack! However, it looks like Wheeljack has traded in his lab equipment for a pair of swords! Check out Wheeljack in action in the embedded video below.

Dual Compression Cannons
At first I was like:
"YES! Wheeljack in G1 colors! YAY!"
But now... Seeing him charging into a laser war-zone with humongous swords of death and destruction, I'm guessing that he dies at the end of the episode.
And his ears don't flash when he talks! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Looks like there's a possibility that the Turncoat scenario I proposed before for Wheeljacks appearance may happen. Also looks like this version of him is channeling the Spirit of IDW's Drift character. It's pretty bad-ass (albeit somewhat insane) bringing swords to a gun fight, but even more bad-ass when you actually win and I'm getting the funny feeling that even if he doesn't win, a lot of bots will go down before he's done.

Yeah, I'm guess he "sacrifices" himself at the end of the episode too unforunately. I don't see the cast getting any bigger than it already is..

If they want him to be a one-time only character, then they'll have to kill him in this episode (Though I hope they don't) since they can't leave the planet.
Let's really hope that he'll be in main cast for a while.

With a title like 'Con Job' and the introduction of a new Autobot to the Transformers PRIME cast, you don't want to miss tonight's epidsode.
Swords and Wheeljack. Watch to see if the PRIME version of Wheeljack has more Drift in him, as the video somewhat implies, or if he shows us he's the more classic 'jack eccentric inventor, with a love for some cool blades he made.
Be sure to check it out tonight at 6:30Eastern/3:30Pacific on the Hub.

Wheeljack's personality fits more of Sideswipe.
They should have made Sideswipe instead of Wheeljack.
Wheeljack is the mad scientist NOT an accomplished warrior.
And WHY they made Starscream a b****ch!!!
At least in Animated, Starscream was a force to be reckoned with.

For a show done with 3D animation the stories and characters are very 1D.
You could almost speak the dialog along with the characters. It was like they pulled the last 2 episodes out of a Mad Libs for TV scripts!
Wheeljack is one of my all-time favorites, but for how they used him, you could easily have replaced him with ANYONE else. He seemed a helluva lot more like Drift than Wheeljack to me.
I REALLY liked the original 5-part story, but since then each new episode has just gotten less interesting.
I hope the show is just in a lull.

I think it was pretty good.
They could have given REAL Wheeljack some more screentime, though.
This incarnation of WJ isn't quite what I was hoping for (I too am a G1 WJ's fan. He really should have gotten more credit) but this one's really cool too. They MUST make him return sometime. WITH an ALT-mode!!!
Wonder if this is the only time we see Makeshift?
Is this really the first time we see Prime smiling?
The WRECKERS are first mentioned. WJ and Bulkhead were in the Group. (A matter of luck and time if we get Kup and Springer, too)
Starscream was bleeding... FROM MOUTH!! Should have spitted a tooth while he was at it.
Wonder if the guy from next episode's preview is related to Lord Chumley? (Himself or his hired soldier or his son, maybe?)
Next episode: I'm pretty sure I saw Prime with a TRAILER!!!
And we get Fowler again!
