 Wheeljack
Resourceful Autobot mechanic and overenthusiastic scientist, Wheeljack’s
inventions are as brilliant as they are unpredictable. When his inventions work,
there’s no other gear the Autobots would rather have in their arsenal. The weapons
and upgrades that Wheeljack creates are unrivaled for their inventiveness, and
his improvisational feats of engineering can result in weapons, gears, and system
upgrades made out of little more than random parts and scraps. In his Alt Mode,
Wheeljack attacks the road like he does his science experiments: recklessly and
with style, always on the brink of brilliance or spectacular failure. His fearlessness
in the face of the unknown is the quality most respected by his fellow Autobots.
