    Thread title should be more like "KO Wheeljack is out, REJOICE!!!"


    Also, I would like to see a review on these things. See how well it compares in turns of quality.

    And its a shame Hasbro refuses to reissue this. They would have had my money already.

    I'd be interested in the Wheeljack for bits, I'm missing a wing and missiles for my one.

    Wow. I thought I read that we never got a legit Wheeljack re-release cause the mold was damaged or lost or something. So how is a KO made?

    QFT.

    Surely someone here will moan about this for some reason but "lost" and "broken" are sometimes just code words for "we don't want to." We got those excuses for Soundwave and Hound, we got "but zomg kos killd murket!" for Predaking, we got a lecture about the price of remolds/repairs for Jazz, we get several excuses for every Megatron P38 toy, ranging from how US laws have jurisdiction over Japanese companies to how it's too small a market for Takara to ever ever ever do anything without Hasbro's blessing. While they're regrettably within their rights not to sell desirable products, lying is not the way to justify it.

    I was actually pleased with KO Mirage and Reflector.

    I'll take a chance on Wheeljack for sure.

    Now with that said... Where can I get one?

    Does anyone on the forum have a connection?

    PM me if you do.

    KO Wheeljack is almost here

    After digging around, I found these images. (Attached)

    Seems like they're 1 set of wings away from release. Also it looks like the reproducers copied their first rub symbol.

    I assume that bothers you because you are in the highly exclusive and lucrative market of buying and selling Wheeljack and Scourge parts?

    Or perhaps you have an army of Wheeljacks and Scourges you need to complete?
