    Out of the two I looked at, both had different shades of paint apps on the eyes. Mine has a much more vibrant color, so that might be something to watch out for.

    Umm... why?

    Yes, he looks like a dope (worse then Herp and Derp) in robot mode but his RC truck mode is pretty cool. The robot mode is all scrawny as the CGI counterpart is too. Of the most recent wave of deluxe figures he is my least favorite.

    I am generally not a fan of designs that are real far out, but I like this guy. Maybe it's the big 'bot mode that folds up into a tiny vehicle, I don't know. Is it just me, or does he look totally evil with that mouth and those claws?

    He was beaten by the ugly metal rod, so, yes. He does have a few things that remind me of Johnny 5 from Short Circuit ("no disassemble, no disassemble!"). He does KIND of grow on me like a barnacle grows on a whale.

    Wheelie has to be one of the most expressive TF's in a long time.

    Here he is begging not to be beaten again:

    I really don't know why, but I really want this guy. If I see him for a good price, I might get him.

    I think its the fact that it's actually incredibly close to scale with the character and the emotion thing.

    I'll hold him down to start, and you get the first few swings. Then I'll get a turn, okay?

    It is neat how he folds up into such a small truck. My only complaint is the blue plastic is cheap, there were stress marks everywhere once I took him out of the package, nothing I couldn't fix without a hair dryer but still. Also the clear piece at his waist was really annoying as well so I cut it off.

    I'm torn about getting this guy now because... well... he's a fricking RATTRAP homage. I don't know how I can resist a Rattrap homage.
