    TF3: Que aka Wheeljack - YouTube

    I came across this, it's a 3D animation of Wheeljack from the movie.
    At 1:20, he pulls out dual swords, and wears a battle mask, similar to his G1 counterpart. I think this is pretty neat, I would of liked to of scene it in the movie, even though movie Wheeljack isn't much of a fighter.

    I would have been cool with that. It would have been an improvement.

    That's a fuckin' weak head. And the swords are so lame. Trying to "cool"-up a character who's much better as he is. We've got pleny of gun-toting, blade-swinging Autobots. Let one be unique for a change.

    He has more screen time in this video then he did in the movie.

    if that was how his head looked, i would have cared more when he died. that and if he were closer to his g1 colors. those are the 2 things that make him "not wheeljack" to me.

    Agreed. That's why I love DoTM Wheeljack. He was a peaceful, kinder bot, and not the "GOTTA KILL'EM ALL CAUSE WE'RE GOOD GAIZ!!11!" like the other Autobots are.

    I'm not sure if you meant this as a joking statement (due to the severe lack of Autobot screentime in the movies - with which I'd agree with you on :lol  ), but just as an FYI, it's not more than he gets in the movie. Tacking it all together gives Que around 2-2.5 minutes of screentime in DotM (not too bad considering that he disappears for half of the movie sporadically). Yeah, I know, big deal; 2.5 minutes vs. 1.5 minutes. Whoop-dee-doo. And especially in a 2.5 hour movie. Your point about limited screentime still stands. But's it's just not that bad.

    The more you know, you know? :)

    Neat animation; a lot better than what I could/can do with 3D software these days. True Que's design was very strange but it does get points for being unique (as unique as it can be considering he's just a robo-Einstein XD). I disliked the way he died in the movie (the entire hostage/execution just felt forced and abrupt with like no decent prior transition) but at least his Deluxe figure is actually very neat; after applying some more metallic silver to his head with a Sharpie, he looks a lot more screen accurate too.

    Respect the fact that we can call it whatever we want.

    Let's not start this again.

    Nice try, but no. Although I did like watching the transformation sequence, especially as we actually see him strap on a seatbelt. We needed to see that in the film.
