I think Wheeljack's personality of being a mad scientist whose inventions didn't always work came from the fact his alt-mode, a Lancia, had a well-earned reputation of being innovative but the innovations didn't always work and was prone to breakdowns. Top Gear did a segment about the Lancia where the car did break down while Stigg was driving it.

Something to note about Prime Wheeljack is that he was in fact quite a good mechanic just like in the original. He actually helped create a drone in Season 3 to follow Lazerbeak. Some characters are actually surprised about it, and Wheeljack says that nobody was born a warrior, implying that he wasnt always the fighter he became, and had to take on arms due to the war.

I always loved Prime Wheeljack having a subtle trace of his classic G1 personality. He was obviously a far departure from the norm, but he had very small moments of ingenuity and mechanical wizardry that helped him feel a little less jarring. Not to mention how most of his plans in battle tend to blow up in his face, as is par for the course with good old Jackie.

Wheeljack was not only the first bot to be seen in the first episode of the original cartoon, he also had the first line of dialogue, and was the first to transform into an alternate mode. Wheeljack was masterfully voiced by Chris Latta, who also voiced Starscream and Sparkplug Witwicky! One thing that I have ways been curious to know is why he had those things on the sides of his helmet that would light up in synch with his speech and how he had a solid, unmoving mask over his mouth. Other bots who had a face mask (Optimus Prime, Soundwave, etc.) had ones that moved as they spoke, without anything lighting up. No other bot ever had either of those features that I can recall. Thanks to his "Mad Scientist" personality profile...I always imagined that one of his weaponry experiments must have backfired on him in his past, perhaps almost beyond the point of repair. So an alternate method was developed: a face plate covered what was once his mouth and nose and his vocal circuitry had to be rerouted to output via synchronized audio-visual emmisions from the apparatus on the sides of his head. Maybe I used to think too much about these characters when I was a kid?!?

I have always loved Wheeljack. Building the Dinobots in the original cartoon cemented him as a favorite. I do, however, really like his incarnation in Prime. If they had found a way to meld his warrior self with the inventive style, like creating weapons for the wreckers, would have been amazing!! As a request, I'd love to see the basics on Springer or Triple Changers in general!

Prime had all the advanced equipment either coming in the form of relics or off of Ultra Magnus' ship, but Wheeljack did at least get a few engineering moments - he fixed two ships in the series, his own and Magnus' (the latter without permission), hid a grenade inside Laserbeak, and made the drone thingy that imitated Laserbeak and was supposed to help locate the Nemesis... I think... anyways, that thing was shot down by Starscream, despite it being escorted by Optimus Prime.

At first, I was surprised by Wheeljack's characterization in TF:P. But I grew to like his character. The role of scientist has already been taken by Ratchet (who was mostly a medic in G1). So turning him into a loose cannon as a foil to the rigid Ultra Magnus was a great idea. Plus, he was a great supplement to Bulkhead's backstory as well.

I first really grew to love Wheeljack in Transformers Devastation, the action game developed by Platinum Games. There, he was the ranged specialist, and while he was definitely taking after his original G1 incarnation like everyone else, he was given his Prime incarnation's combat skills, though instead of swords he was dual-wielding wrenches.

I actually find myself fortunate to have these three Wheeljacks, though I wish I got this green Wheeljack 5:35 too. I actually categorize them base on all the Wheeljacks in the Transformers franchise as separate cybertronians, just for fun. 3:52 Downshift: Autobot turned Decepticon from Transformers Armada. The name fits this version better then in Energon. 5:04 Wheeljack: The Wrecker from Transformers Prime. I actually like this version more then the G1 and others that had the similar G1 design. And I was a fan of Wheeljack personality and function from TFPrime. 6:13 Que: The investor that he's well known for. Despite not looking like G1, I still like the Einstein look and investor role.

Wheeljack has, in fact, done engineering stuff in Transformers Prime. Though mainly this is fixing his own crashed ship, he does in fact also upgrade Ultra Magnus' ship and build a sort of fake Laserbeak out of parts lying around. I can't recall exactly why, though. Mainly, he didn't do mad scientist stuff - though he also had a knack for stuffing grenades in places they shouldn't go (into logs going down a river, using a box of them to destroy a swarm of Insecticons IN MID-AIR, and even putting a grenade INSIDE LASERBEAK that would distract from the presence of a computer virus left by Ratchet), often to the detriment of the Decepticons, though once to the detriment of the Autobots as he tried to put one into "the belly of the beast" and instead got the Wreckers buried in a rockslide.

Good old Energon Downshift, who despite being based on G1 Wheeljack, couldn't be called Wheeljack because they'd already given that name to a character based on G1 Sideswipe, who couldn't be called Sideswipe because they'd already given that name to a character based on G1 Nightbeat, who couldn't be called Nightbeat because they'd already already given that name to his Mini-Con partner. God bless the Unicron Trilogy.

I remember really liking wheeljack when I watched transformers prime of a morning. I specifically remember in prime him throwing a ball of scrap, ratchet getting pissed, hitting agent foulers (I definitely spelt that wrong) door to his office. Also i remember him saying he thought bulkhead would catch it. God it’s been so long.....

The last good one was 2011 and it was still a little wonky. The Combiner Wars version was... okay, at least if you painted the black parts on his robot mode. But yes, a good figure that transforms in an interesting way and has a decent robot mode has been a LONG time coming.

The basics on Wheeljack: He keeps dying! One of my favorite G1 Autobots, and they have to keep killing him, or changing him to the point that I don't recognize him. Really annoying - especially after his unceremonious death in the first movie. You'd think they'd make up for that, but no. Sigh... At least I have Soundwave.
