As much as I hate the rhyming fuck, I'll probably get him. Backtrack is more interesting though. Could it be a Legends Outback? Backtrack is better than Fallback if so.

 

If you retool Blackjack so his legs are the hood and the panels are his trunk you've got Wheelie and Bumblebee.

 

The thing ROTF Wheelie is most notable for is humping Megan Fox's leg.

One would hope the STDs would have killed him first...

Anyway, it's possible he'll be a totally new mold, but I dunno who'd be retooled from him.

 

Is it safe to assume that Backtrack can be Combiner Wars Deluxe Groove or a repaint of it? I mean, he was a motorcycle in the movie toy-line.  

 

as long as we get a decent toy out of Wheelie. I don't care.

I like the idea of a survivalist orphaned boy scout.

 

Wheelie needs to be in Chug
It's better than a yellow bug

Who is backtrack
Perhaps rewind got the hack


stop rhyming
its bad timing




Also wheelie from he little legends guy that came with metroplex

 

*gets off kangaroo and plays outback voicetrack*
Bloody oath he did mate

 

The first thing I thought of when I heard Backtrack was Backstreet, the Triggerbot!

 

I know in general Wheelie's not, well, the most beloved character. But how can you look at this image...



...and not long for a new Wheelie?   And, sure, a new Rodimus while we're at it.

 

There's something so not right about Magnus having red thighs...

 

Wheelie will be made from Blackjack I guess.

 

I thought pretty much the same thing, though I am an Australian who is not much older than the Transformers brand, haha. Yes, Outback definitely tried to have an Aussie accent, at least. He didn't appear that often, and I would have thought that most of the flak for voices in S3 would have gone to Blaster for suddenly rhyming most of the time, and Wheelie doing it all the time, for people who get irked by that sort of thing. Anyway there was of course meant to be a Legends Class Brawn coming up, according to that leak while back that revealed a heap of the Generations toys before CW. While we still haven't seen Brawn (or Gnaw and Gnash for that matter), there's an obvious mold-mate for Outback. When Huffer turned out to use the Legends OP mold, it seemed possible that Brawn could use that of Swerve and Gears, so the absolute easiest option to imagine is that Outback - if that's who Backtrack is - would do the same and, like Cliffjumper perhaps, come packed with the Legends OP rifle, to slap on his roof. For me, anything less opportunistic would be a bonus.

The idea of Backtrack being Rewind's new name is an interesting one too though. Rewind had his traditional name in the list of Legends figures that leaked around or even at the same time as the CW Combaticons. The thing is, so was Wheelie, whose name it seems has had to be renewed, though I won't pretend to know the specifics of that. If this means that either of their names may have been uncertain of being secured, then sure, it's more plausible that Backtrack is Rewind, but if Wheelie is a sign of how arbitrary name renewal can be, maybe not. It's just yet another wait and see thing.

 

Wouldn't mind Wheelie to go with the couple of S3 figures I have as he should be a fairly inexpensive legends figure and while I probably should've just gotten the Unite Warriors release if I wanted him so much, I'm hoping a second motorbike character in Backtrack is a justification for bringing over a deluxe Groove.

 

This is what I'm hoping for. Always did like the Triggerbots.

 

I'm not seeing how this is a wealth of information in any way. A lot of times these names don't even pan out to anything or it takes years (see Airachnid).

 

I agree that IDW wheelie is far superior than G1 wheelie.

 

Yeah!   I still need Wheelie. Never managed to get his Legends toy. If he gets a newer, larger Legends Class toy, then it may have been faith. Like it seems with every toy so far. I did not get one version, wait a few years and the same mold comes out with a superior paint job or the same character gets a much cooler mold. I'm curious what it will be!  

 

MP Wheelie would be awesome, but his size had better match the price point... yeah, right!

 

Already got a pretty nice Wheelie made from RTS Jazz mold.
