The underside of the tail is sagging below the crotch space. In these two pics:




On the original toy, that would only happen if the tail wasn't turned upside-down and plugged in properly. When done so, that made sagging impossible and kept the tail's connection to the body above the crotch behind the waist. Here, it looks as though they were working off the original toy with the tail not fully transformed correctly.

And even if he did, sometimes we all forget some transformation steps. Especially if these steps are just for esthetics purposes.

Whats that you say ,”You hope theres enough energy in these conductors to last a quartex” well well well, lemme tell you something Jacky, you have officially energized my bionic soul for an entire astrocycle! Finally, our 40 year wait is over folks, Origins Wheeljack is ready to hover into your collection!!!

Huge shout out to my bot brother Yuya san, he has turned my concepts and dreams into an engineering masterpiece. He has been just raising the bar on every character we work on, its insane, legendary designer!
.
I’m jumping right in because there is literally so much to tell yall about! Blurr style: hover vans vehicle blastshield can be a used as an air glider in robot mode but also partsforms into the cybertronian racetrack featured in the first g1 episode, the transformation sequence resembles the exact transformation in the cartoon, the bottom of the vehicle mode sits on tabs to give it that sweet cybertronian hover look, origins bee can not only fit into the back of the van but his golden rods can plug in on the sides for a cool thruster look, he scales correctly in robot mode with Jazz and BB, articulation and deco are on point, the buzzsaws on the front bumper have been designed to also be used as dominator discs
.
Wheeljack, yesssss, his OG look, no pablo’s or que’s here bruh, just good ol genius Jacky looking like he has been doing metric ton squats with Bulkhead. After all, its one thing to have the gift of gadgets but its another to be able to back up Optimus in the war.

Granted, the year is still young, but this Animated Bee is the BEST Bee I got since a very, very long time.

He's very close to his Animated original appearance. Yeah, cry me a river over his lack of clown feet. When everything else is perfect, that can be easily overlooked.
Sure, he's tiny for a deluxe, but he's fairly complex and there's NO hollow bits. The transformation is fun and clever, plus the vehicle mode is PERFECT. The only mismatch of yellow is a tiny rectangle where his is printed. That's quite the achievement!

I seriously recommend that Bee. The upcoming Optimus look pretty rad too, appart maybe the rectangle bits that serves as his trailer hitch in truck mode. Plus the A, Prowl was excellent.

I'm looking forward what they will do with the other Animated characters if they ever do them. I'm looking forward a redo of Bulkhead, and especially what they will do with Starscream.

A Core Sari Sumdac would be awesome too. Make her a "pretender" with her human child form serving as the "inner bot" of her armored "adult" form.
