Thanks to Seibertronian
LinaNui, we have confirmation of a figure we
first reported on back in April. Via an eBay auction, we can see Generations Selects Exhaust packaged in his robot mode, along with his instructions and box, confirming that he will be released as WFC GS-11 in the Selects line. He is a retool of Siege Wheeljack (as expected), and comes with the same missile launcher weapon.
The original figure that would be known as "Marlboor Wheeljack" was a Diaclone figure that was later redecoed and retooled into Wheeljack for the original G1 toyline. It was known as "Marlboor Wheeljack" for decades until the retool of Masterpiece Wheeljack was announced and given the name "Exhaust" in 2015.
The only previous figure of Exhaust went through a lot of controversy (due to his original deco being too close to the trademarks and deco for Marlboro cigarettes) and wasn't able to be officially imported into the U.S., due to U.S. laws forbidding the advertising of tobacco products on items that could even potentially be marketed towards children.
Selects Exhaust looks to still retain his red and white color scheme, though any sponsor decals in car mode aren't able to be seen. Interestingly, though packaged as a Decepticon, he has an interesting faction logo, likely that of the "Mercenary" faction that was rumored to be a part of the War for Cybertron Trilogy.
So, history lesson aside, what do you think of this (unofficial) reveal? Are you excited to be able to add this to your collection in the future? While these images come from an Ebay auction, it's likely that with the recent pictures of Hubcap we've seen, we'll likely see an official reveal of Exhaust soon, along with a release date.
While you're checking out this news, why not also check out the galleries of Masterpiece Exhaust, courtesy of our own Seibertron himself? Click any picture below to be taken to them.

Greetings Seibertronians! Thanks to the work of fellow Seibertron users,
Jtprime17, and
Hellscream9999, we've been directed to a listing posted on
TFW2005 by a user there called
UtahRobotinDisguise, of an unknown supplier starting to solicit three new Generations Selects toys, Exhaust, Greasepit and Hubcap. Fans may remember these from a list of rumoured toys (that also featured Rotostorm among others).
Check out the image below then sound off your thoughts in the Energon Pub, letting us know what you think of these. Remember to stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

These are always fun. Below is a list of new toys found on the Toysrus system. They also have a SKU next to them. There are some interesting tidbits here aside from new characters. For isntance, WFC Smokescreen and Arcee have an individual code while there is also a code for the Earthrise deluxes in general. We do have individual listings for Greasepit, which would be another modular base. It being an individual listing means it would probably be an exclusive redeco of some kind. Same goes with Thrust, Exhaust (redeco of Wheeljack) and Hubcap. We also have a Clone 2 pack, another micromaster pack and a voyager seeker 2 pack. There is also a SDCC Gi Joe and Transformers set as well as another set simply called Repugnus' Revenge. These were all found by
Zircon72.
UPDATE: We also have another employee
who found listings for G2 Megatron, Bugbite, deluxe Sandstorm and more.
