Transformers Dark of the Moon Wheeljack Instructions with New Head Reveal


Hasbro's website has recently uploaded the instruction sheet for the upcoming Transformers: Dark of the Moon Wheeljack toy in PDF form. Check it out here if you're curious as to how the toy's transformation will work.

Normally, this wouldn't be the sort of thing we choose to share here at Castle Geek-Skull. However, similar to what happened with several Transformers Generations, Hunt for the Decepticons, and Reveal the Shield toys from 2010-2011, these instructions have revealed a new head for a possible redeco/remold to be released down the road! Seen above, it appears that the new head is an approximation of that of G1 Wheeljack, done up in a more movie-based aesthetic.

Will we be getting Dark of the Moon Wheeljack in a G1 rally car deco, despite how recent the Transformers Generations Wheeljack is? Hey, why not? If that's what this means, I'm sure it will go over quite well. Otherwise, I suppose Slicer and Downshift are also possibilities! Interesting stuff regardless.
