Big Bad Toy Store Exclusive Transformers Prime Dark Energon Deluxe Wheeljack

The Dark Energon series of Transformers Prime Deluxe and Voyager toys are exclusive to BigBadToyStore.com in the USA, though they are available at retail in some other countries.  The Voyager Optimus Prime and Megatron are set to come out soon.  I really hope this will not be the last series of Dark Energon toys.  I would love to see a second series of Deluxe Soundwave, Vehicon, Ratchet, and Arcee, and Voyagers Dreadwing and Bulkhead.

Wheeljack looks fantastic repainted in translucent blue, translucent red, and dark gray.  I love the gold/bronze color of his swords.  This is one of my favorite molds in the Transformers: Prime line.  I like that the Autobot toys have their own unique insignia, the Autobot logo on a gold shield.  My only complaint is that I would have preferred a lighter color than the dark gray.  Perhaps white, as his original color is mainly white.  That’s a minor thing though.  This is certainly the best of the Dark Energon Series deluxes.

Thanks for reading!

I’m 36 years old, and I work in network tech support for a public school system. I am a huge fan of Star Trek, Transformers, Harry Potter, and Marvel Comics as well as numerous other fandoms. I’m a big sports fan, especially the Boston Red Sox and the New England Patriots. I collect toys (mostly Transformers but other stuff too), comic books, and Red Sox baseball cards. I watch an obscene amount of television and love going to the movies. I am hopelessly addicted to Wizard Rock and I write Harry Potter Fanfiction, though these days I am working on a couple of different original YA novels.
