Takara Tomy web site has shared some clear pictures of Masterpiece MP-20+ Wheeljack including a 360 view of the figure.
While some of the pictures were previously seen, the 360 view gives us a great look at the robot mode and car mode from different angles.
This re-release of Masterpiece Wheeljack carries on the trend of giving earlier Masterpiece a second run in more animation inspired decos. In Wheeljack’s case, we get a simpler and cleaner deco, with less details and logos as we saw him on the classic G1 cartoon.
You can see Wheeljack’s 360 views here after you scroll down a bit. We have also mirrored all the images of the views for your convenience after the jump. Don’t forget to let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

I need to get a KO Exhaust to replace a piece of the Immobilizer my MP-20+ is missing.
My most recent acquisitions. Love them all! One of Bumblebee's door foot windows broke off. Gotta get that fixed. The energy conductors came with Origins Bumblebee and the jet pack I got on eBay from an MP21G. It was missing the straps, but they probably wouldn't fit on this guy anyway. I'll come up with something. Absolutely love the yellow painting @Rainax did on these Badcube Insecticons I bought from him!

Hmm, this gives me a good idea on what to do with my KO that I left abandoned at my work desk.

Wow! Looks great! I'll take two please.

Oh god bless you sir! It really should exist though.

Why does that look real? You’ve no business making such things look so real….. also why do I not own this garish toy?

Yay, finally an excuse to trot this one out!

His energon cubes are awesome, but I also got the Brawn cannon and that is very 3D printed looking/feeling, you'd have to sand and paint it to look great and I'm sure this cannon will be similar.

Somebody get this poster a @chchchch digibash, stat!
Sam
look at the photos of their auction for a Megatron cannon for that 3P Brawn to get an idea of how rough that can look.
their purple turret for Starscream is pretty damn cool though I must say
Obsidian X
They made a wacky (but cool) Nightbird from Arcee so there is no excuse now Takara. It is time to redeco Wheeljack into Slicer, get on it!

See, I figured as much, though I wasn’t 100% sure. That’s why I’ve been hesitant to pull the trigger on this.
Sam
So this is pretty clearly not the original Dr Wu sets, but rather a 3D printed copy. Not sure what the quality will be like in hand. At that scale, they might be a little rough.
HolyCulture
Sorry. I don’t understand what you mean.

Is it’s only use for the trailer? If so, maybe just a picture with a pose for a moment and that’s all she needs.
Gamerlingual
I got free shipping included to Japan. Can’t complain
franpincho
I'll buy this and a V2 will get announced the next day that includes it all.
Gamerlingual
Thank you for this. I ordered the complete set. The blue ears will only enhance the toon look for Wheeljack+.

Be careful what the rubber hose touches. I posed my Wheeljack next to MP-10's trailer a few years back, and the hose was touching the white stripe. Totally melted a small bit of the paint off. Apparently other people know that rubber can do this, but I have never heard of it. So just be careful.

I say go for it if you can. This pretty much completes the set, IMO. Gotta get it as well.
