This has to be one of the strangest things ever!

Reprolabel's email wrote:We have two fantastic new sticker sets available for you this month!

1) Music Label Soundwave - GEEWUNIZED! I designed this one myself :)

2) Wheelimus Prime! Yes, you heard right. All I can say is READ the interactive comic linked to below, and you might have a tenuous understanding of the madman who designed this hilarious set: Justin Goguen.

Unfortunately, Upgrade set 7 has met with a minor delay, but should be out in a couple weeks.


The Soundwave stickers look awesome too, and the comic's funny!

I never understand the general hatred for Wheelie. I like him! As a concept anyway. Think about it...

He's the only person he knows living in the wilds of Quinntessa, dodging Sharkticons and Allicons all day but clearly unafraid. After all, the first thing he does is look for a opening to attack Grimlock and take over the Dinobot "pack". That's like a 10 year old picking a fight with MechaGodzilla. By his actions, he is accepted by the most xenophobic group of Autobots and even gets them to follow him! Before that? Who knows where he even came from? I always figured he was a Junkion kid or at least TV taught like them...

He's not the lame retarded kid they depicted in Season 3.

He's Mowgli from the Jungle Book!

I guess we as a fanbase have made enough Wheelimus Prime jokes to warrant this. It was really only a matter of time.

There are too many jokes to be made about that one. I guess I know what to do with the Wheelie that comes with the TFC Targetmaster Kup/Wheelie set.

Wheeliemus Prime...a threat much more dreaded than Unicron.

I don't know. I think it's actually kinda cool. Would look even better on the Garage Kit Wheelie though.

...the comic was pretty nice as well.

Heck I think wheelie is a better character than any of the kid friendly character they tried to create for star wars. Also wheelie is supposed to be a young autobot I don't know how old he supposed to be they never said. but I remember reading an interview with one of the writers for transformers, and he said wheelie was supposed to be a kid form an autobot outpost destroyed by unicron.
