I too recently picked up wheeljack. Haven't opened it yet. I noticed the lined pattern of the box is now vertical as opposed to horizontal with the earlier MPs...

Perhaps it's TTs way of helping fans separate which is real and which is bootleg?
 
Yeah, prices on MISB Roddy have skyrocketed.

Luckily, I have my old 1st version box with inserts, so this "100% complete, loose MP09 2nd version" works great.

I'll do a mini review once I get it for those interested. Chinese seller has already shipped it and it's left China based on that tracking number.

I hope I don't get a pair of used shoes.

I'll be interested to hear it. I am thinking about buying one of these myself - what did it cost, if you don't mind me asking?

If yours turns out good maybe I'll try and get one from the same seller. I was waiting for an eventual reissue, but if it turns out that this is some kind of KO, that's okay too. I mean, heck, if it's better than the genuine ones, I don't see any reason not to get it...

Apparently it ISNT a KO based on descriptions from various sellers on taobao...which has me scratching my head. Apparently these are from the factories, legit...except they don't come with their original packaging. I don't know if my friend translated it correctly or if he was theorizing, these Mp09's were flawed and tossed aside....so I dunno.

I too am waiting for a reissue. I AM MIGHTY tempted though. It's a little over $100 here in china.

$188 shipped to the USA. Kinda high, but I truly tried finding one cheaper than that.

I'm hoping it's not a knockoff, but I'll see.

Is there not a thread about this release anywhere? Detailing differences, etc etc? Competing this "loose release" to the actual retail MP09 version that came out a while back?

They could possibly be legit ones, either refurbished from previous version 1 returns or a secret third shift.
 
Well, they all state V-02 and also describe how every single problem V-01 had has been fixed.

Where they came from is the big mystery here.

V-01 was ok, if you were careful. The backpack not attaching 100% of the time was the deal breaker for me.

"V02" TRU exclusive was utter crap. What a pos. I don't believe this is the Takara V02 at all, this is some sort of V1.5 that is even worse than V1. Mine broke by transforming it, and I was being more careful than I was with MP05. And that's saying A LOT.
 
Got my Wheeljack! :yess:

Recieved one Wheeljack this morning which and the other one is also en route.

Only slight annoyance was the lack of the lunchbox :gah:
 
So excited about getting my Wheeljack!!! the question is...whose the next autobots after Bumblebee? I hope Takara continues the line of core Autobot characters ...I know what bots I'd like to see next!

Sunstreaker, Hound and Jazz.

I must be an unlucky sod!! Everything was pretty perfect with my Wheeljack until I flipped the headsculpt up during my first transformation!! GGAAHHH!!!! I just cant live with that mark on his face plate, so will ask for at least a replacement faceplate (easy to do if you just unscrew it on the back of the head).

 
I also got myWheeljack today and the guy is great !!! A few very quick pics to share.

Like the other car bots, robot mode is pure Gen 1 :)






With a couple of other Jackies............ Chug looks so poor in comparison now.



My Ark crew so far. Add in Bumblebee, Spinout and Brawny and we are really starting to get there !!



Just an awesome figure !!! :clap

Nice pics of Wheeljack everyone :clap

I also did a couple,

VHS cassettes make handy risers! :lol


Wheeljack's greatest creations


I got word from Kapow that my other is en route so hopefully I'll get the lunchbox with that one.

koolkollectibleskhai,
That sucks, hope you can get a replacement sorted out.

Now Wheeljack's here I have both of my favorite Autobot cars ( Bluestreak being the other ) and it's insane how good the series 1 lineup is looking.
