Derrick J. Wyatt, Art Directer and Lead Character Designer for Transformers Animated has updated his web blog A Delightful Tedium with a beautiful new image of what could be Season Three ringers Wheeljack and Perceptor.

Here's what Derrick had to say:

Well, since images of these guys are already out, and I've been itching to put up some new S3 artwork, here's a look at the Animated Wheeljack and Perceptor models.

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

Wheeljack looks great, Perceptor however.... no bot with a cannon mounted on his shoulder like that should look that wimpy.

Good ol' Wheeljack. My favourite Autobot car. I hope they make a figure of him. I would get that in a heartbeat.

No it's a real beard. The wig and pipe were photosho... oh.. Wheeljack.

Ya, it's a robo-beard. :P

Personally I think Wheeljack looks just like Mixmaster and Perceptor looks like Prowl. Hey, maybe it's his Nerd Armour :lol: Worst. Upgrade. Ever!

A+++++

It's great we're getting the two Autobot Scientists. I get the impression that Wheeljack is going to be a cocky bastard who tries to put down the weaker and smarter Perceptor and often steals his ideas and takes credit for it.

Need moar Animated! =P~

Wheeljack:

Awesome paint job: Check
Back Wings: Check
Mad inventor belt pouches: Check
Stylein' and profilein': Check

100% win, there better be a toy coming out cause this has the potential to be a lot better than the Downshifts fans have had to settle with.

This made my day. These guys look so much like win...it wins. I would like to see a bit more of S3. Right now!

I think Wheeljack should be voiced by John DiMaggio (Bender from Futurama) and Perceptor could be voiced by Tom Kane (Professor Utonium from Power Puff Girls, among other roles that slip my mind right now). Those would be the perfect voice matches for them, unless of course they can get Paul Eiding back.

Wheeljack AND Perceptor? Heck yes! Two of my favorite G1 characters. Now all we need is a Animated Mirage and I will be happy as a clam.

One husky guy with an oversized beard/moustache and a knack for inventions that are... wacky.
One skinnier guy with glasses, and a really big cannon.
Both scientifically, experimentation inclined.

It's the freakin' Mythbusters as transformers.
Not that this is a bad thing. Considering how often those guys blow something up for the heck of it, they'd fit right in.
