this wheeljack really looks like crazy uncle who welded car engine to a chainsaw
Exactly!
I FUCKING THOUGHT OF THE CAR ENGINE-CHAINSAW THING YESTERDAY!!!
Tbf that sounds exactly like something wheeljack would do
So, typical Wheeljack behavior, then?
That’s just business as usual for wheeljack
Ratchet: for Primus sake Wheeljack, first you take my tools, now you eat all the donuts, what is wrong with you
I ate the tools too.
Holy shit, an actual functioning Voyager scale cargo van with cargo section!
MY LIFE IS NOW COMPLETE
Truly a rare beast.
I got him with my 1/18 GI Joes as a cargo carrier. :P
I literally found this yesterday and was thinking “damn I wish perspective had a video on this”
You're wish is my command! Now please... Your first born. (Holds out hand.)
That massive shifting into his alt mode is pretty impressive. Now we need a Soundwave just so he can turn into a street light(?) that can store cassettes.
Funny story about the Perfect Effect Mega Doragon. I saw a random UA-cam recommendation for a video on that figure. Back then, I had no idea 3rd party figures existed. I thought it looked like a weird stylized TM2 Megatron even from the thumbnail so I clicked out of curiosity. It opened a whole new world to me that I never knew existed.
That Soundwave will not need to do a lot. Will that mean it doesn't have the Double Folding backpack?
Brought you to the full Fandom then didn't it?
YES! Get on it Hasbro
Truly a most emotional journey
One I'm glad to be through.
Jobbys zipper comes undone for male characters too, at this point I think his barn door is just always open lol
I swear, this guy just has a permanent grudge against Jobby and Mei at this point.
Wait he said something about mei ?
@@elmowalk7935 Several vids back.
the only time I can think of him mentioning Gei4Mei was in the shadowstriker video in regards to mistransforming the chest
@@dubuyajay9964 PE is always over the top angry in his videos, I assume he is doing a bit.
Edit: when he is angry, he's not angry in this video obviously
4:27 perspecitve end confirmed mothman in disguise
Was there ever any doubt?
That would explain all the monkey's paw incidents
@@PerspectiveEnd That shifting glow in 80s cartoon crystals was done by painting the cel black in that spot, then doing a second exposure of a mask that only left it open on a lightbox with a piece of wavy glass underneath, that was moved for every frame to create the light ripple effect - errors in that process are why energon cubes are just black a couple times in G1, and why the glow often got slightly misaligned with the outline of the object. It's possible to replicate but a major butt pain in modern 3D animation; I managed it in Blender a while back but lost the file and never duplicated it, and the post-processing doubled the total time for each frame. Grnated this was before GPU raytracing and running on a dual core potato of a jailbroken chromebook, but if I could do it on that production companies could certainly do it on their multi-million dollar render farms.
It all makes sense. He was never asking for our likes, he was asking for our lights!

At least we have all three of the cybertronian mode G1 Autobots in the first episode. Love how they were able to justify Wheeljack as a voyager by giving him extra accessories and have him able to have Origins Bumblebee within him.
I think it justifies it pretty good even if it didn't get any of that stuff.
Btw - an update on the whole situation on Buzzworthy Bumblebee. Essentially, Target is still gonna have exclusive figures but the specific Buzzworthy Bumblebee branding is over.
So now Target Exclusive figures will either get the standard packaging style for the toylines they’re a part of (so Legacy exclusives get Legacy packaging, Studio Series ones get Studio Series packaging etc) or special box art depending on what the release is, like if it’s a multi pack.
Interesting. That explains a lot. Thanks for he info.
@@PerspectiveEnd no problem mate :)
It’s also why the recently revealed SS86 Blaster and Legacy 4 pack with Cliffjumper, Tarn and co doesn’t have Buzzworthy style packaging either if you’re curious about it.
I'm still in college right now, and I have him on my desk. Sometimes, when I'm bored or just need a little distraction from work (I primarily work on a computer, so that tends to hurt your eyes after long exposure) I convert him back and forth a few times because of how fun I find the transformation to be. I highly recommend if you can find him
I know that exact feel. Desk toys are so nice. Especially if the power goes out.
I know it was literally the first thing they showed us of the figure but I still love that you can actually put Bumblebee inside the alt mode. That’s the kind of extra mile I NEVER would have expected from a chug figure. Then they went several more miles past that by including every possible accessory they could.
This WheelJack ack feels like what if the marshmallow man dressed up as WheelJack for Halloween. I'm sorry if my take is wrong I just feel that way about this figure.
Honestly the backpack just makes me think he has an actual backpack of inventions
1:54 “it’s got some fat kibble, but it still looks good” is precisely how I feel about Haslab Unicron. I was literally just thinking the kibble on it reminded me of Unicron, then you succinctly and accurately expressed my opinion regarding both toys.
I don't even think it's kibble is really noticeable on that Unicron.
I was wondering if the chunk would discourage you, and here you are loving it. Glad Wheeljack: Space Soccermom Van was worth it.
My copy arrived literally today. I got it for yhe sake of completion and was banking on it being a fun transformation as well as praying that the photos were deceptively underselling the quality. And oh boy does this thing *DELIVER* . literally my only problems are the atrocious elbow and knee placement that are slightly less ungodly than the stock photos make them seem as well as the neck being incapable of tabbing into the torso. Definently way better than the netflix thing. Gives me all the things i was hoping to get and redeems itself from its atrocious photos.
And yes, i do care about elbow and knee placement that much to where this guy's elbows were almost a total dealbreaker.
Fantastic review PerspectiveEnd!! It's great to hear that, putting it bluntly, you give Origin Wheeljack an overall positive review. :D Keep on being amazing.
7:30 there are only five rods, in case you didn’t already become aware. Don’t stress yourself out looking for the sixth one.
Thank you for the heads up. That both sooths and annoys me beyond belief.
This is my first representation of wheeljack and I’m very happy with him
I'm glad to hear that I didn't steer you wrong.
I kinda wish they’d make the artillery cannon alt mode for Optimus in the first marvel issue
it’s the first time we see Optimus ever and it would honor the anniversary
I finally got wheeljack about a week or two ago and I just love it! Not only does it look good it’s just a solid figure. So awesome to see you love it after years and years of space wheeljack talk it’s finally come! 😂
This chapter of the channel is finally truly closed. Glad you were there for the whole thing.
My blast shield was so tightly held together I was worried I was breaking it when I pulled it apart.
Luckily the plastic is durable enough, I'd just be careful in a few years
I find that folding it inward fully breaks it free pretty easily.
Another banger video. I really think this is a lot of dedication put into a voyager. Also the jobby joke was so fucking funny
Just finally found one of these and I heartily agree. He really just IS Wheeljack. I was out of the loop for a few years, but in all seriousness, the last figure I got that felt this much like a proper G1 Wheeljack was Energon Downshift.
This is a great figure. The transformation is so fun, despite being panel heavy. I also love the colours. There's something about the sheen to that just looks like eye candy to me. It makes it look more cartoon accurate
I love these versions, I cant wait for mine to come in
I'm curious as to where you will rank this among the three.
Glad you dropped a vid to cheer me up after my barber messed me up REALLY BAD
I forget which issue, I wanna say somewhere in the underbase story line, but you can see Space Optimus Prime alt mode in the G1 comics. Also, all the chunk on space Wheeljack is just to store his gadgets and tools. He can use the siege Ratchet's "3rd mode" as a workbench.
Wheeljack feels like the kind of dork to carry around a large backpack at all times ngl
All the kibble and voyager price are so worth it. I would love a lot like this one. There´s a single pannel of Optimus in alt-mode in the first issue of the Marvel comic, use that!
I finally found one for myself and I absolutely love him. There was only one left at my target and then I found out he was $10 off for some reason too so I got a huge win finding him
NICE! Glad you are liking it, and that's a killer deal.
I do really want to get this wheeljack, and while it’s very blocky, it’s not something that bothers me.
Also no picture prepared me for how giant the altmode gets, dear lord it’s huge. (Also side note, thanks for taking a look at the fan-art I made)
bumble bee only came with five rods. you will now have sadness forever.
I'm glad Jack got some love.
And I would love some space concept art figs.
I gotta say, you really killed it with the script man, solid video
Congrats on 17k
At this rate Perspective is gonna yell "YOUR LIKES" so loud that we won't be able to hear the "plz giv" due to the ringing
Also "It's not gay, it's vore!"
Sir, it's both
When I get this, I’m going to make a stop motion with it, but I will only use it for vehicle mode and the mid-transformation because the Earthrise/Kingdom/Gen Selects has a better robot mode.
Edit 3 days later:
I got Origins Jazz, but not Wheeljack. I’m buying Wheeljack when I’m able to.
It’s crazy that figure so small to accomplish so much. Aside from slight proportion issues and the backpack, I think this has the potential to go down as one of the greats. Definitely my Transformer of the year, and I’m ready to defend that title
5:10 I think that those disks are meant to double as the "Dominator Disks" from the G1 episode where the Autobots take control of Devastator.
Season 2 episode 24 the core
Ngl i was waiting for you to cover this guy. After seeing the stock photos and the mixed reception, i really needed to hear the conissuer of space wheeljacks confirm my hopes. Honestly might just get him to serve as my main g1 wheeljack and replace the ER fig with his gorilla arms.
Bro looked like he was about to go fight pink godzilla
This is maybe the most gimmicks and episode-specific accessories a non-masterpiece Hasbro Transformer has had in the past few years. Kind of cool they are getting that people like that stuff finally.
Exactly, that's why I said this thing is on some actual MP Shit.
As the resident wheeljack fan, this is a triumph.
Siege Seekers are good enoough for me, but I really want a proper Origin Soundwave who doesn't just T-pose but compacts at the bicep and telescopes the legs out into a tall and narrow streetlight mode, and a flying saucer Laserbeak to come with him.
Rereleases of some of the most egregious scalper-bait among the last few years so Hasbro can pick up some of that money lying on the table to address their finance pinch would be acceptable first though. (I want a TR Misfire, dammit, but not enough to pay Titan prices for one!)
I remember when they first showed him off, and I was way more excited about him than I was Tidal Wave (mostly because I just don’t buy Titans). I can now say with confidence that my excitement was more than justified. I picked him up a couple weeks ago, and I haven’t been able to put him down since. A fantastic and long-awaited rendition of my favorite Autobot :D
Something else that I think should be mentioned is because the vehicle mode is resting on just a couple of pegs, from most angles it just looks like it’s hovering which is an awesome detail. I just got this couple of days ago, and love it
It does indeed look like it's hovering and I should have mentioned that.
5:18 Yes, a shoulder fan or a Dominator Disk launcher because they can also double as the Constructicon mind-controlling devices.
It does kind of look like Bombshells launcher like that yeah.
I KNEW YOU WOULD LOVE IT!!!
Now the question is, do we get Origins Soudwave, where he is just a “Cybertronian Sensor Lamp” (Seems like a lamppost to me). No Cassette mode, no "spaceship" (Flying brick more like it) mode, just a lamppost.
7:42 I I almost fell out of my chair after hearing that with that was so unexpected and hilarious
When i transformed him for the first time, it was almost comedic just how many times the legs unfolded
3:13 this remark about jobby was hilarious! I feel like it's not often that youtubers in the TF community refer to one another.
Wheeljack do look good and would get if I had the Origins Bumblebee. From what I remember when they did the reveal, it was mentioned that the tiny spinning blades are based things Wheeljack used from two different G1 episodes that looked similar enough to combine them as one
Found only one at my target. As I walked out of the isle 4 dudes in their 40s ran in all audibly groaned when they didn’t see any more wheeljacks. I know they were looking for wheeljack because one of them saw I had one and gave me a death glare.
The prophecy has been fulfilled! Hasbro must want me broke. Tidal Wave, Cybertron Startscream and now Space Wheeljack? I'm sorry bank account.
I know exactly how you feel.
I too want that Tidal Wave but they did the Haslab Omega Prime so I had to make a choice, My first titan class figure or go after the once in a life time opportunity to get the best version of a figure I always wanted. So I decided to put off Tidal Wave for another day cause I could not afford both Tidal Wave AND the Omega Prime.
@@zacharyzwickl5860 Omega Prime is indeed a sick figure.
I’m fairly certain that the thing that attaches to the shoulder cannon is a reference to the episode in G1 where the Autobots take control of the Constructicons
He's blocky as the energon container I drink away my sorrows with every night and I love him. He's honestly really fun to handle despite some of the flaws.......however the severe lack of a lamppost Soundwave still urks me. I KNOW THERE'S A FAN MODE, NOBODY @ ME! a literal lamppost Soundwave is what I need!
Would that happen to be the Same Energon Container Kup has?
0:51. And yet...I can see Wheeljack doing such modifications to his own body.
We need a Soundwave that turns into that weird traffic light-looking thing, as he was always meant to do!
something about the way the panels unfold and then tab into the roof in alt mode is one of the most satisfying experiences i've had transforming something in a long time
and i own both cyclonus and eris kultur
so yeah even if the robot and alt modes sucked i'd probably still be able to forgive this thing just for that
The "Evofusion" gimmick was so confusing even in the first wave of year 2
I think it was confusing since wave one.
5:29 you fold those pieces apart exactly like I do. It leaves zero stress marks as far as I can tell. I see all sorts of reviewers complaining about those pieces and how difficult they are to remove without said stretch marks forming. You are the only reviewer I’ve seen do so correctly. Actually, this is a repeat viewing. I didn’t notice the first time.
Yeah I figured that out just before filming when I put it back together wrong for the video. It is absolutely the best way to do it.
Favorite release so far this year, he looks like he does donuts anywhere he wants.
The more I see this figure the more I want it. It looks so good.
It is very fun.
Finally found it at a target yesterday. Got two of them. Gonna paint the other green as reference to the courier ship form the first ratchet and clank.
How are you liking it?
@@PerspectiveEnd He's been pretty fun to fiddle with. It's nice that the vehicle kibble can tab in to keep secured on the legs, and the winglets have slots to help keep the backpack in place. Also a surprise with the backpack is that it was a cape coming out of the box.
As for his accessories, just realized the "Sprinkler heads" he comes with for cutting through the flames can double as the "Dominator Disks" they used on Devastator. From that one episode of G1.
2:45 someone get Floro Dery on the phone and see if he’s okay. I hope that guy is living well and comfortably, having a great time.
That is fair. After the Transformers he seems to have faded more than anyone, and that's not fair.
The boi has finally arrived, now we just need to wait until Depth Charge and I can die happy
Your Custom Wheeljack could be repurpose into Downshift
I'm quite happy having both as Wheeljack.
Kinda thought you were gonna hate this! Glad you liked it. Think Wheeljack really fits with Origin Bumblebee. Both are super kibble heavy, but retain all the good stuff.
Agreed with Origin Jazz as well. The tabs broke off mine. Bloody clear plastic!
It's time to Jac-......well you know
Fun fact, in Marvel comics we saw cybertronian mode for Optimus
I'd quote the wheeljack meme (we all know the one), but youtube probably won't like that so I'll just say _man_ I wish I could find this guy.
Finally, we've got Space Wheeljack 2: The Squeakquel.
I was going to skip this until I saw that, thanks to Target once again having insanely loose rules on their discounts, I could get it for $28 shipped, and it just arrived. You're right, the backpack isn't nearly as bad in hand as would be expected, and even without the other positives it'd be worth getting for the transformation expansion alone. But it also just looks so good! Like F-Zero added a racing van.
Worst downside is the white plastic color matching is all over the place on mine, but when isn't it.
Jobby gets excited over anything curvy, not just female.
Jobby would get excited over that stand Mixer.
i could only find 5 rods as well, and looking at stock photos, thats all the rods, u aren't missing any
I feel like I'm going insane then.
7:26 bee only came with 5, they really should have given wheeljack one extra for symmatry
I forgot that, and it makes my brain itch.
(reads video title in the Strong Bad voice) Eager to find this guy; so far the best find I’ve had is Gears [also Scrapheap]
That's like the ONE I haven't found yet.
He's a little frumpy but I respect that as a frumpy fella myself
💀 *bro, that jobby shade came out of nowhere* 💀
2:40 Actually the Marvel comics show a really cool Cybertronian alternate mode for Optimus.
Where is this picture of Cybertronian Optimus?
It’s here: tfwiki.net/wiki/File:FlamesofBoltax-Triggerbots.jpg
@@PerspectiveEndit’s on his tfwiki page
Oh, I forgot - Arise, Wheeljackimus Prime! Sadly, a Prime Master will not fit inside his chest like on the WFCE mold, but one of the innumerable WFCE Optimus/etc. Matrixes certainly does!
Origins Bumblebee only came with 5 rods, so no, you aren't missing one.
3:15 jobby mentioned what is a swivellll
A swivel is here my son.
This video should’ve been titled “what’s the best space wheeljack?”
That origin Jazz done a better job with the kibble than the other two. And the chest is more less cartoon accurate. Also. My Wheeljack didn't even come with a blast shield or shoulder gun. And I ordered straight from Hasbro pulse for that matter.
if they make an origin set in the future with all of these i will indeed get it
the minty green windows look really nice
That looks blue to me?
@@PerspectiveEnd minty greenish blue?
I’m incredibly happy they managed to the get the nesting doll gimmick right. Great figure even if I’m not coming to buy it.
Hmm... Embodying the spirit of the character while being a radically different design... I've heard that before on here...
*ME GRIMLOCK SAMURAI!!!!!!!!!*
I suppose yeah, but that hit this same way.
That embodied him so well. This just looks like him. Like it is distinguishable and indistinguishable at the same time.
Review is so good and hilarious that I might have to get one😂
4:22 what kind of crack were the 86 movie artist on to make something that looks SOOO good back than (to the point where it makes all other matrix’s or anything with similar glowing affects look like shit in comparison) and where can I get some?
I don't know, but there are several different things I'm thinking of from back then where they made stuff look so mesmerizingly shiny.
I will definitely get this guy! Wheeljack is my favorite G1 Autobot.
Legacy United Origins Wheeljack looks great. In my storage collection, I will either place him next to Siege Spinister, as a reference to the Siege fan verses 2-pack vote he lose, or next to Origins Bumblebee and Siege Netflix Hotlink with his two battlemaster flamethrowers as a reference to the first episode of the two Autobots running into the Seeker on their way to Iacon.
Both are good choices and I can see why you are torn.
Remember?
I love this thing sm
Of course!
What is "sm"?
It’s “so much”
“It’s not gay, it’s vore” - Perspective 2024
“It’s not gay it’s vore”
Ah, so much better.
Oh Boy I can’t wait for origins soundwave who will be sold as a leader class at a voyager size and transforms into a streetlight :D
Got to love that figure! I have not been able to get one yet!
I hope that when you can finally get your hands on it, you still feel that way.
@@PerspectiveEnd As a guy was born on the 80´s... I MUST GET IT!
