    True, but I never saw it in Wheeljack. Many others, sure but I can't recall anything more than one or two scene, in the whole show, that actually gave Wheeljack a personality.

    and i am sure wheeljack isn't building insane devices and then them falling into the hands of the decepticons, in the IDW stuff either.

    wheeljack probably put that device in the key to make the key turn the earth into metal. just for fun. :lol 

    prove he didn't.

    Hmm.... well if G1 fans keeps complaining about IDW Wheeljack not blowing stuff up then the authors writing the combiner wars could always have wheeljack complete a combiner that potentially blows up a bunch of your favorite characters in its mushroom cloud... Seriously, don't you guys ever worry about annoying the authors with complaints to the point they would do that?

    That's not personality, that's role. His enthusiasm for developing new gadgets and his confidence in his own abilities (sometimes unwarranted) and in the capability of engineering to solve the Autobot's problems, however, would be part of his personality.

    Yes. I mean, it's not like his latest appearance had him to agree to build a combiner directly for Starscream, after all ;)

    Aren't almost all the Autobots confident? I don't consider being exactly like everyone else having a personality. Most people say he's overconfident, but that rarely came across. Nobody ever called it out for it, and almost all his inventions worked. I can only think of two that didn't.

    TFP for me. I enjoyed the character, his dynamic with Prime, Bulkhead, Magnus. He was a rough around the edges prickly good guy who got stuff done and we haven't had too many of those in the various TF series.


    G1 Wheeljack I always found to be quite dull. I can't even remember anything of note he did in the comics.

    yes. and who's idea was it to give them small brains?

    now that just sounds stupid.

    at least in g1, when he did that, it made it seem like the real experiment was to see how the decepticons would use it, so he could create a counter device. and come off as the hero at the end. :lol

    It's a joke dude...notice the tongue. :p 

    I do like IDW Wheeljack though I didn't like how he was written out for a while but I'm glad he's back now.

    Confident, maybe not. But I'd definitely say almost all of them had positive attitudes.

    I like G1 Wheeljack because he was a scientist and built the Dinobots.
