    that would work yes, but at least give him a new set of weapons, technically he could also work from siege sideswipe

    for me, the ones i want the most are , sideswipe, blurr and cyclonus,but they would require entirely new molds, or at leats blurr a heavy remold of pointblank

    Part of me wouldn’t be hugely suprised if he is out slightly before August.

    I keep forgetting that the Australian calendar is only seven months because a wallaby ate the last five pages back in the day.

    I feel like it’s normally the Koala gangs that keep that kind of cheeky behaviour in cheque, but the chlamydia really has thinned their numbers.

    There are G1 characters that got straight up repaints of molds that didn't 100% fit them even since WfC began, I think most people would be fine with Wheeljack from Siege Sideswipe.

    I wish that mold had shoulder wheels to begin with

    Same goes for ER Wheeljack and SS86 Jazz too

    Wheels on limbs are better than without

    Just unfortunate that Armada Wheeljack from this would have less detailed and more boring arms as a Result

    If preorders go up next month I’m thinking will have him available likely at some point in May, maybe June.
