    Wheelie as he may have appeared in The Last Knight. I imagine him speaking in Shakespearean sonnets instead of rhymes.

    This started as Cogman, but I couldn't make a Headmaster proportional enough to work. Then a few other ideas failed and ultimately rested on a muted Wheelie.

    Speaking of Shakespeare...

    The Cogman idea initially used a modded Prime Bumblebee head, but it never quite looked right. So now it's a Murderbee 2.0, or Wheelie's Halloween costume or Space Pirate Bumblebee.

    I swapped the shoulders for a bit of a different look...above the waist at least. And gave the option of the Mech Ideas Longblast's shockwave laser hand. You know...like a pirate.

    Let me know what you think, and thanks for checking it out.

    I LOVE that Murder Bee head. Kind of has a (Nightmare Before Christmas) Jack vibe going one. Color ways and paint on these is really good.

    While I don't think it fits the Last Knight name, I LOVE the aesthetic

    We don't need a G1 version of Wheelie in TLK, I prefer the ROTF/DOTM/TLK Wheelie that was in the movies.

    I'll take a CHUG Jazz in THAT very same deco. Seriously, it works well to homage the movieverse deco. FANTASTIC WORK as usual dude.

    I don't think it fits the Bayformers aesthetic as well, but you've still produced some AMAZING work nonetheless!

    You never fail to amaze sir. This is just awesome.

    I just LOVE how you always include those little "extra's" in your works...your custom work alone speaks for itself, this one is no shortcoming in that aspect either.

    FABULOUS work.

    That's really cool. I'd almost rather see this as Movie Sideways with that deco, but regardless, super neat.

    I have to say, this comment hit the nail on the head.

    He in fact, made Wheelie cool.

    Thanks all. I appreciate the feedback and comments.

    Thanks! I wanted to find a Jazz, but the RTS Jazz mold is pretty expensive now. So this is a broken Jazz with some Wheelie parts. I'm hoping the new owner will have a Jazz head and try it out.

    Totally. I like doing "classics" versions of movie characters, or characters in other non-classic worlds, like Animated. This mold would have made a nice classics "movie" Bumblebee, but yellow paint is for a better man than me.

    Thanks! This guy is already in his new home.

    Thank you!
