Titans Return : Wheelie Review

8/21/2016

0 Comments

 
Picture
Titans Return : Wheelie is a Legends Class figure that looks like a piece of candy corn when in vehicle mode, comes with no weapons and will cost you $9.99. If you remember the the original Transformers: The Movie from about 30 yrs ago then you will remember Wheelie as the annoying little Transformer that rhymes all the time and helps the Dinobots locate Kup and Hot Rod right before they are destroyed. Check out the full review of Titans Return : Wheelie by giving a PUNCH to the "Read More" break below!

Packaging

Titans Return Wheelie comes packaged the same way the other Legends Class figures are packaged. Clear plastic shell casing taped to a cardboard back piece and the figure is held in with way too many plastic ties.

Vehicle Mode

Picture
Transformation from Robot to Vehicle mode is simple, only requiring a few steps. The actual vehicle mode is fairly well designed but details are limited. Being such a small figure there really is not much to say about it except that he looks like a piece of candy corn.

Robot Mode

Wheelie is a basic Legends Class figure in robot mode except for a few things, he is shorter than other Legends Class figures and does not come with any weapons but is still $9.99 which to me seems like a bit of a messed up move by  Hasbro. Other than those issues he is a decent figure and has usual Legends Class joint movement.

Comparison

As I stated in the previous section Titans Return : Wheelie is shorter than other Legends Class Figures of this line (not counting Stripes who has a Beast Mode).

Final Thoughts

The Good

The Bad

  • Detailed Design
  • Fairly Accurate Design
  • Looks Like Candy Corn (This could be good or bad depending on how you feel about candy corn.)
  • Shorter Than Average Legends Class
  • No Weapon / Accessory
  • Another Autobot
In the end I still have the same opinion about the Legends Class, buy only the ones you really want and don't spend the constant $9.99. The lack of a weapon or accessory really annoyed me here. They could have given Wheelie his slingshot from the original movie but chose instead to give him nothing. I am given Wheelie 3.5 out of 5 PUNCHES. He is not a bad figure but he could have been better. Get him if you see him in a store and want to have him but don't rush around looking for him.
