That's definitely not a Hasbro barcode. Hasbro barcodes typically begin with 630509 (pre-2022 UPCs), 195166 (2022 UPCs), 5010993 (pre-2022 EANs) or 5010994 (2022 EANs).

 

Weird...the sticker covering the UPC is on the cardboard insert, within the sealed bubble, so I'm not sure what's going on.

The next time I'm there, I'll check the other bots that showed up with Wheeljack to see if they have the weird codes, as well.

Edit: I just did a Google search for the odd UPC number and it did yield some results, not related to Wheeljack, but related to previously-released Authentics figures from the Alpha assortment.

Edit 2: Took a quick pic of Bumblebee and Megatron's UPC codes at Dollar General:

Same as Wheeljack's, both on the cardboard insert, inside the bubble...so, does this mean DG gets their own allotment from Hasbro with these unique bar code stickers applied at the factory?

Nice! In my unspecified part of the states I'd been seeing the Alpha class Wheeljack, so I would keep an eye out, but never saw anything for Arcee. Outside of a recent eBay listing for like $20 (not worth it) that disappeared very quickly. Looking forward to an in-person purchase.

 

I picked up this Arcee a couple weeks back at a Fred Meyers near Seattle. Wierd

 

Saw Wheeljack at a Family Dollar and Arcee at Dollar General in the Phoenix area

 

No sight of either in South Florida yet, but I haven't looked extensively.

 

This will make a decent Legends+ Arcee.

 

why do i think this looks nicer than my Earthrise Arcee ? 

 

Arcee is a good size for riding a deluxe class bike.
