Thanks to 2005 Boards member returner we can report that the new Transformers Bumblebee Cyberverse Adventures Scout Wheeljack has been found at UK retail.
This figure is a new new scout mold based on Wheeljack’s design as seen in the Cyberverse cartoon and featuring a “Gravity cannon” gimmick. 2005 Boards member Nevermore had given us the heads up of a small tiny picture of this mold at the Cyberverse display at Toy Fair 2020 (but later taken out) and then we had some in-package images of the figure.
Cyberverse Scout Wheeljack was finally spotted by 2005 Boards member returner at Asda, Cannock in the UK. We hope this mold will surface in other countries soon.
Update: returner has been kind to share in-hand images of this toy for us.
Hunt safe, wash your hands and be careful.

I wouldn't mind if I could paint toys myself, but I don't.

I like the way these look in the package. That\'s about it.
Funny story – My 6yr old got me scout Optimus for my bday. I thought it was cute . I told her she can open him for me.
She said Noooooo , he looks dumb.
I asked why did you buy it then if he looks dumb? She said because I know you like O Prime.
I smiled and said I love it. (Still havnt opened him tho )

I bought some of these for my 4 year old son before realising they don\'t fully transform. He likes them all the same though. They are like action figures with flip out features. Like that scene in one of the movies where BB attacks in car mode.

I'd like to point out that despite all the anecdotal stories about the virus surviving on surfaces for X hours or even days under lab conditions, there has yet to be a single confirmed case of someone getting infected via surface contact. In fact, any attempts to have the virus particles found on surfaces reproduce in the lab have failed. Which probably means that the virus particles found on surfaces are actually dead. The main transmission is still from human to human, and then often humans that have been in close contact for an extended period of time. Here in Europe, there were several instances of mass infection, and they can all be traced back to single events where huge crowds of people came into contact with a single infected person. Keeping a distance, wearing a mask, washing your hands before touching your face, all of that will severely reduce your risk of getting infected.
I know we have to be careful, I'm often wearing a scarf around my face when I'm riding my bike, but all this paranoia about rubbing every surface in your apartment with alcohol once an hour because some virus particles might have entered your apartment is completely over the top. And I'm saying that as someone who's overall very cautious when coming into contact with other people. The only thing that annoys me is when I have to get out of my way to avoid running into other people because too many morons in public either don't know how much two meters are, or they just don't care.
There's also this absurd debate about whether one should be allowed to wear a surgical mask inside their own car. While being alone inside the car. With the windows closed. I mean, for reals?

Wow. It\'s like they stopped Midway through development and said, \"nahhh, not even worth finishing this thing. Moving on to the next. Just box it.\"

I don't know if this is a new concept to you, but supermarkets, where you get essentials like milk and bread and cleaning products and the like also have other sections like TOY SECTIONS, and in my case I walked down the one opposite the magazine section, where I was getting a television magazine for my parents. Not like I was out specifically to get this figure.

I hesitate to even call these Transformers. That\'s not an alt mode, more like some half-transformed state… Unfortunate that Dead End is only available in this format too.

FYI: "washing hands" is helpful but not 100% prevention for a virus that can stay active in air for FOUR HOURS.
Better prevention: stop toy hunting until a vaccine or proper treatment is found.
Even if you're confident you will survive infection, go read about the 3 weeks of fever and then decide if browsing stores for toys is worth the risk.

Not familiar with this line: I don't understand the point of these.

If none of the budget is going towards the plastic needed for a full transformation, why is it almost completely unpainted?

Man, I really wish we had gotten a Deluxe Wheeljack from the Cyberverse line…

Reminds me of this from @grindcore138 's sig.

Sheesh. Lack of painted details makes this look like a cheap dollar store knockoff.
