    I'd be in love with this guy if the headsculpt looked closer to the g1 comic which is even less detailed than the cartoon.

    Dude, I have that one, it's zero fun to transform and looks awkward in bot mode, I have no idea how you could possibly think it's better. But if you were talking Prime WJ that'd be a tougher match

    I wonder if you could switch the heads?

    I went back and looked and I guess the old one was based on the G1 toy head. Which I really liked.

    Can you use the Gen head on Siege's body? :D

    Has anyone bought two and can show me a picture of him with two launchers, like the original toy?

    The Generations head is stupidly hard to remove. At least, I remember trying to pop off Tracks' head, and I couldn't do it without feeling like I was going to break something in the process.

    Prime WJ is a hell of a toy, but he falls a bit short on articulation. I now have both and yeah, that’s a tough fight to figure the best figure. I think it comes down to connection to the character.

    Prime WJ was amazing. Plus he was a wrecker and a badass in prime.

    This is what I’ve been wondering. Same for the CW head.

    Just found this guy, don’t know if anyone has talked about it yet, but the spoiler is attached with 5 mm ports. Seems useful.

    And that’s how we get Sunstreaker from this mold....

    In all seriousness, this is a modders dream right here. Wheel jack is pretty easy to disassemble. He’s got a good base design. And the ability to remove things like the spoilers and open up 5mm ports seems like there’s mileage here for something awesome.

    Prime Wheeljack and Earthrise Wheeljack. Both are very good. This reminds me of the Siege versus T30 Springer debate. Your opinion of the best one will come down to which version of Wheeljack you connect to most.

    But the arms are so skinny.

    That said, I’ve always really dug the green they used on the Generations mold.

    Man, I passed on this guy for Cliffjumper and Starscream. And while I don't regret my choices...I know I'll probably never see this guy in retail ever again! LOL

    Wait what??! The 1st wave of siege deluxes were pretty easy to find after the initial release hype died down.
