When the TF3 movie toys were quickly wrapped up during 2012, the rebranded "Movie Trilogy" line was the main casualty, as we only ended up getting the Optimus with Trailer as the only "Movie Trilogy" toy.

Other proposed figures were redecos and repackaged figures, and we've seen some loose samples appear on ebay of the Soundwave redeco (Soundblaster) figure. Now a packaged sample of the Wheeljack redeco has been shown off on a fansite.

The other figures that were announced for an early 2012 release...
Evac (http://www.toycollectors.com.au/tftoys/excl2012a09.jpg) (blue car, new - Auto) (released at Universal Studios - possibly to be repacked in Movie Trilogy packaging)
Soundwave (http://www.toycollectors.com.au/tftoys/mt49.jpg) (black redeco - Decep)
Wheeljack (http://www.toycollectors.com.au/tftoys/mt51.jpg) (white redeco & new head - Auto)
Bumblebee (http://www.toycollectors.com.au/tftoys/mt48.jpg) (minor redeco - Auto)
Ratchet (http://www.toycollectors.com.au/tftoys/mt50.jpg) (white redeco - Auto)
Optimus Prime (http://www.toycollectors.com.au/tftoys/dotm01.jpg) (Deluxe redeco - Auto) w/ Trailer (side-folding version) (the only one that was officially released in this "Sub-Series")

The new head and colours make that much more appealing a figure than Que. It's still a bit ugly but definitely the one I wanted to buy.

I agree, much better than Que. It was a shame Wheeljack did not get a release.

What's the go with using the matrix as his head?

I saw that too (his head looking like a Matrix). The Movie toys certainly like to exaggerate the Gen1 aesthetics.

This looks really good in my opinion (well, for a movie toy anyway).

Seems nice that they are also trying to differentiate Wheeljack from Que - because Que would have been a sucky Wheeljack for the Movie universe to end up with :)
