Brief thoughts
I'm still pinching myself over actually finding an awesome G1 Wheelie toy! This is such a clever little toy that has a sort of "Masterpiece after-taste" to it. What I mean by this is how they've really cleverly given this toy a cockpit, something which is typically an immovable part of a Transformer toy, but also allows the cockpit to collapse in on itself in robot mode in order to fill in that space and not leave a chest cavity. This also has the effect of bulking the toy up in vehicle mode, but shrinking it in robot mode, which is kinda like what the cartoon did. There's a lot of awesomeness packed into this little toy! I just wish that it came with a weapon, but the fists are compatible with any 5mm post weapon at least.

Pictures




I don't have a Titan Master, and none of my Nebulans could fit inside Wheelie, but a Diaclone pilot could. Although the cockpit is far too big for him.


I'm estimating the Titan Masters to be somewhere between the size of a 1988 Nebulan and a Diaclone pilot.

Overall: Highly recommended.
