New Prototype Images: Takara Tomy Transformers Masterpiece MP-20 Wheeljack

OMG, I can't look any more. This what it seems like to be Transformers perfection is blinding me.

That head sculpt is to die for. The bot mode looks OK, but I think it will improve with color.

I feel like there's something about this one that takes it a good notch or 2 down from MP-10 through 19... I'm not quite sure what though.

Looks pretty sweet. I love the head sculpt but i'm really excited for that car mode and some colour photos.

I hope for a pristine Takara paint job on this release. A real primo spare no expense type of paint job.

Wheeljack has my favourite alt mode of all the car formers......ever.

I think once the painted design is on the roof, the split will be less noticeable.

I would like them to simplify his hand guards to be more like the g1 toy and also g1 animation.

I hope the wings are the clear smokey gray just like the G1 toy!!!!!!

Shoulder cannon is g1 accurate...so its all good!

Car mode is pure sex, coz the lancia stratos all beefed up just is.

Robot mode is okay. Couple things right, couple things eh... like those thighs being super thin. I'll take the Generations robot mode over this, even if it ain't as G1.

Hope he comes with his shock blast cannon!

Wheeljack was the 2nd ever tf I owned. It was an Italian GIG diaclone import with the big orange dumbbells. I think I was quite disappointed with his robot mode and he definitely was kept in his car form most of the time. I remember also losing the things on his back and in play, I'd imagine the side thingies on his head light up as he explained his latest crazy contraption to prime.

i said to myself that i will stop buying masterpieces - in fact I haven't since they introduced mp10 prime and skipped rodimus too. I wasn't too enthused with sideswipe etc... but somehow I just ordered smokescreen and well this wheeljack will probably join him as will soundwave and ultra magnus

"Just when I thought I was out... they pull me back in."

Wow!!! Sure, there are a few minor things...(thighs a bit thin and rocket is a bit too fat at the tip. Don't remember any "knuckle guards" on the hand covers either) but...I DONT CARE. This is freakin awesome lookin!!! Can't wait to see it painted!!! The screw beneath the windshield will doubtlessly be painted and far less visible when finished.

The Amazon extra IS a bit tiny, but it comes from the early, classic Ultimate Doom serial...so I think it's fine....unless of course Slag, Sludge, Swoop and Snarl ARE an option!! =D. The Negavator or the Immobilizer would have been cooler lookin no doubt. Or Maybe a Teletran 1 console.

This is yet another home run for the Masterpiece line. It makes me even sadder that the current designer has left and we are getting the original designer back.
