I have been waiting and waiting for a revamp of Wheeljack since the TFU Classics line started a few years back. When I saw the prototypes for this, I became as giddy as a schoolgirl!
This figure is a great representation of the classic Wheeljack. Nice paint apps/color choices, and a fairly smooth transformation. The figure does have quite a few pieces to transform, but the great thing is, they're all very solid. No pieces popping off during transformation. I did have a little bit of trouble folding the back half up (last step) when transforming back to alt mode, but realized I wasn't following the direction properly. (Leave the arms at a 90 degree angle and THEN fold. Don't fold the arms, then try to fold the back half. It doesn't fit right!)
I would have liked to have seen a "539" on the side, but that's not a major deal. How hard would it be to find some decals, if you really wanted, right? Wheeljack is a little shorter than I expected, but that fits with the boxy look of the character, and he looks absolutely great next to my Henkei Classics Optimus Prime! (Just got the Fansproject G3 trailer for that, too!)
Overall, I'd say they definitely nailed Wheeljack! If you're a TF Fan, especially G1... Go pick this up... seriously... NOW! GO!!!
*Attention Mom's/Dad's/Grandparents, not familiar with Transformers... do not buy this for your 3 to 5-year-old kid. There are age-appropriate transformers out there!

From the original 1980s Transformers cartoon comes the Autobot mad scientist, Wheeljack! Transforms from race car to Autobot scientist!Bring home the man who built the dinobots (in the cartoon)-- he even comes with a gun and his tools!
Standing proud at just under 5-inches tall is Wheeljack, the Autobots' finest scientific mind (on Earth)!This mighty warrior goes from a tricked-out race car to a swell robot in seconds, and he even sports his unique wings on his shoulders.The figure has two tools which can be stored under his doors or, in robot mode, in the back of his legs.He also includes a gun, which can be mounted over his shoulder or held in his hand.You don't want to miss this one!
