He did a review of Warpath the other day - definitely worth getting!

I love Wheeljack - he looks terrific.

Looks amazing... It actually utilises the mold better than tracks. I thought tracks was awesome, but wow.

By that thought, should my post here (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showpost.php?p=224475&postcount=3) be amalgamated/moved here also? :confused:
(I saw the W of Wreck-Gar in the thread's title and thought it said Wheeljack. :o:p)

Nah, it's okay to have 'duplicates' in applicable topics.

Wheeljack is the one that I am looking forward to the most. This is a great re-use of the Tracks mould.

Hopefully with him starting to appear for sale at BBTS and RK, he shouldn't be that far away from hitting our shores. With DOTM coming out, Wheeljack will probably be my last toy purchase for the year.

This is ostensibly in the last wave before DotM hits right?

(I am aware Generations is going to run alongside DotM).

If so thank god.

I second that. Wheeljack is so much more awesome than Tracks.

Yep, I agree there because if I had the money - I'd certainly consider overdoing it. ;):D

Thanks man. Though I don't think it would have affected your decision to get Wheeljack anyway!

Hahaha... sorry about that. I was just being cheeky and that was the best reply I could think of to being called 'scalper' on other boards. :D Actually, those are for some friends in Singapore since I'm going back in mid-March. Generations/United has become horrendously expensive in SG.

Loved your assessment of him. I have been waiting for wheeljack for so long. I initiallty pre-ordered 2 of the united versions, but when I saw pics of the final generations version compared with the overly metallic green stripes on the UNited version, I sprung for the warpath case of 8 that has 2 generation wheeljacks!:D

IMO generations wheeljack has the status of: buy as many as you can see on shelves - walk into a store on a rainy day? buy him and you'll be happy :D

I'm glad I pre-ordered them... not going to even think about how badly these will be bought up/scalped... like United Jazz in HK?:eek:

While I like "Jacky" gotta say I still prefer Tracks for this mold, it's those darn block feet of Wheeljack's! Almost takes me back to G1 days...

I think that was the intention of the engineers and is a big reason why a lot of people like the figure - But understandably isn't everyone's cup of tea though. ;)
