I can just see the G1 voice coming out of that face. Maybe the goatee does it?

[Flashwave]

I wonder if the intention was a welding mask

[Peridot]

An Animated homage! YES!

[Stormrider]

Haha..I love it.

[Ultra Magnus]

Kinda thought that it could be a reference to Q from DOTM ... But whatever I think easter egg is really cool!

[kirbenvost]

MIND BLOWN. That is awesome! Too bad you gotta take his head apart to see it. But cool nonetheless. I also wonder about Soundwave now... Man, Takara is really doing wonders with MPs these days.

[megatronus]

It's cool to see how much Takara has been stepping it up. The MP line is going strong!

Now how about some more G1 Decepticons?

[-Kanrabat-]

Wheeljack have a glorious mustache!

Some may whine, but I love that new trope that every transformers have a face, covered by a mask or not. This make them more alive.

I wonder... what face would be behind THIS mask?

[Zeek99g]

This makes me want MP Wheeljack even more!

[Sabrblade]

Now Wheeljack joins Optimus in the "Secretly had a mouth but we never knew about it until later" club.

[RK_Striker_JK_5]

Interesting little feature, there. I hope BBTS gets him in soon!

[Doubledealer93]

Nobody knew who he was until he put on the mask...

[REX-203]

This release just keeps getting better!

I like it a lot but I don't need to see a face behind every face plate.

Arent you just a wee bit curious?

[fenrir72]

To actually mold an actual facial feature? That IS going an extra mile! And yet accessible only if you disassemble him..........that void's Wreck-gar's warranty alright

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?

foreal! and who would complain about this? it requires disassembly to even see. s'not like its just going to loosely fall off and leave him exposed

Here's a video review of MP-20 Wheeljack

[Noideaforaname]

I'm not crazy about making every bot with a faceplate have a "real" face underneath -- or rather the implication that there's a certain "normal" for Transformers and anything that doesn't fit NEEDS an explanation -- but this is fun! A neat little hidden detail and an Animated homage. A shame, though, about the giant hole in his head...

Thanks to atip fromfellow Seibertron.com user mesh, we get a look at an early review of Takara Tomy Masterpiece MP-20 Wheeljack! Find out more about the scientist with a beard beneath the mask, and his Lancia Stratos alt-mode, in the embedded clip below.

[LOST Cybertronian]

I think it's a big stretch to call the face an Animated homage. I don't think the two look similar in the least.

A speaker mouth? Not surprising alright.
