| The British Butcher Feel the Fury of the British Butcher! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Join Date: Nov 2002 Posts: 30,822 Location: UK Collection Count: And Encore Maximus completes G1 News Credits: 3 | TFW Generations Wheelie Gallery Next up in our look at the Asia Exclusive / China Import assortment of Transformers Generations is the toy that made a lot of us laugh and say "wait, what?" I am of course referring to Wheelie! Wheelie here is a reuse of the Reveal the Shield Jazz toy, again with a new head and also this time a new accessory, trading out Jazz's gun for Wheelie's trusty slingshot. The crazy thing with Wheelie is that he actually works extremely well out of Jazz's mold. In vehicle mode a combination of a clever paint job and the overall shape of Jazz evoke the look of the Universe Legends Wheelie extremely well. In robot mode the new head, new deco and new accessory help to set Wheelie aside from Jazz, and give him a personality all of his own. It is perhaps a testament to how well done this deco is, and how well designed Jazz was to begin with, that I'm now on my sixth version of this toy and it still feels as fun and fresh as the first one. Open the link below to check out the gallery for a look at Generations Wheelie! Like the rest of this Asia Exclusive Deluxe Assortment, he'll be available as a part of the Toys R Us exclusive China Import assortment later in the year.

| Decepticon Join Date: Dec 2011 Posts: 187 Collection Count: 217 | I really like this Wheelie figure. It feels more like Wheelie after he's grown up a little. This Wheelie doesn't feel like he would be quite as annoying and since he's in Jazz's mold it also feels like he's got a little extra backstory. Like Wheelie started to look up to Jazz and took on his alt form once he mellowed out and matured a little. |

| Dork of the moon Join Date: Feb 2008 Posts: 1,746 Location: Sweden | So awesome looking! My only problem is that he is bigger then he should be in my classics collection, then again, I am not happy with a whole lot of characters sizes in classics, I'll get used to it. Besides the classics size issue, as a standalone toy he is pretty perfect imo. |

Probably Too many :p News Credits: 9 | His head sculpt is a little derpy and the mold doesn't really fit the character very well to me, but i kind of love it anyway, the color scheme looks really great on that mold. |

It really is the size that is throwing me off but it works really well. The colors are great and the headsculpt is definitely Wheelie. Plus it's one of my favorite molds. It's a definite buy! ![]() www.facebook.com/SlowRicky Check out Grimlock_13's Attempt at Funnies if you dare! (Updated 05/21/13 with Comic 1,207!!!) |

Wheelie looks great in that mold. The slingshot gun is cool. I'm interested in this figure and Swerve from the same series of releases. ![]() The road to success is always under construction. |
