Transforms from futuristic car to robot and back!

AUTOBOT: WHEELIE

FUNCTION: SURVIVALIST
"Only the fierce shall live."

Wheelie is the sole survivor from a party of intergalactic colonists who crash landed on Earth. He's a barbaric little savage who managed to stay alive by cunning, stealth, and fearlessness. Speaks in odd rhyming sentences and despises the Decepticons. Fights only when he's under attack and has to defend himself. Staunch friend to the Dinobots and a reliable ally for Hot Rod and Kup.

Transformers Tech Specs


Probably because he was the only "futuristic"-looking member of the third-year minibots, Wheelie got special attention in "Transformers: The Movie" and in the TV episodes that followed it. He became a sort of successor to Bumblebee, since he was close enough to human size to be a friend to Spike's young son Daniel. They had to make considerable improvements to his robot appearance to make him more photogenic, though -- the toy had too-long arms, no visible hands, and a face buried in his shoulders instead of a proper head.
