    Default Review: Masterpiece MP-20 Wheeljack

    Here is my review of the new Masterpiece MP-20 Wheeljack. Absolutely beautiful figure

    So awesome to finally get a new unique mold in the MP line after a pretty long wait. Cant wait for Bumblebee and Ultra Magnus hopefully before the end of the year!

    Brilliant write-up & photos as always Koolkollectibleskhai!

    Absolutely AWESOME figure and an utter work of engineering-magic by Shogo Hasui!

    Here are some pics I've taken, in addition to (& including) those posted here :



















    DO NOT wait around for Hasbro to release a $100, absolutely no different, version of this figure - it is WAY too damn good to be put off and I GREATLY Recommend TakaraTomy's Transformers: Masterpiece (MP-20) Wheeljack.

    He looks fantastic and so happy I went in on the group ordering thanks Edmund

    I still don't get how they cram so much animation aesthetics into these figures.....and still transform so well

    It truly baffles me

    Great pics!

    Hursticon I couldn't agree with you more. Hasui's been GODLIKE on the Masterpiece line and this one is no exception.

    Peekaboo!



    You will need to use a miniature cross-head screwdriver to remove the screw from the back of Wheeljack's head. A pretty neat Easter Egg and a nice nod to Transformers Animated. It'd be neat if there were a chase variant "clean shaven" face that looked more like TF Prime Wheeljack.

    For some reason I thought he'd look more like Albert Einstein...

    So I guess it gives them the option of a future redeco to have just a new forehead piece screwed on, for that hidden face to then be the visible face.
    We've seen that Exhaust has a completely new whole face, so not sure why this would be done if they didn't plan to use it for a future toy.
    Maybe FunPub/Ehobby exclusive Shattered Glass Wheeljack... because of the moustache.
