:''Wheelie is an [[Autobot]], you see, in the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

'''Wheelie''', so small, is an Autobot child.  But when stakes are high, he gets quite mean and wild!  He carries a slingshot that shoots hurtful things; they'll hit your nose (the projectile, it stings).  He has a speech pattern that's nothing but limmerick and rhyme.  Some hate it, but who cares?  It's not like it's a crime.

Some think he's annoying and wish he would die.  His answer to that?  Here's death in your eye.


:''French-Canadian name:'' '''Tourbillo'''


==Fiction==
===Animated continuity===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Frank Welker]] (US), [[Kazue Komiya]] (Japan).

On far off [[Quintessa]] his ship it did crash.  Wheelie survived, though his ship turned to ash.  Though friendless and alone, Wheelie stayed alive.  For Wheelie is strong and the strong must survive!

With the help of Hot Rod, Kup and the rest, Wheelie returned to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], of that he can atest.  In 2006, for all that its worth, he was charged with bringing [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]]'s [[transformation cog]] to [[Earth]].  To accomplish the task Wheelie was paired with fast-talking [[Blurr (G1)|Blurr]].  Galvatron soon stranded them on Io, that villainous cur!  Attacked by [[lipole]]s, things began to look grim.  But then [[Marissa Faireborn]] and [[Sky Lynx]] came to rescue them!  With the cog at last delivered, Metroplex came alive.  He thrashed [[Trypticon]] and that Decepticon took a dive!

====''Headmasters'' (Japan-only)====
'''Voice actor:''' [[Kazue Komiya]] (Japan)

[[Image:Wheelie-hm.jpg|left|thumb|In Japanese what were Wheelie's actual dialoggies?  Can you believe that he says "It's too late for apologies!"]]

By 2010, Wheelie was too petulant to rhyme.  He blamed everything on [[Chromedome]], like, ''all'' of the time.  Although a jerk to the core, Wheelie was not all alone.  He hung out with [[Daniel Witwicky|Daniel]] and the two were quite danger-prone.

At one point, at a party he had too much to drink.  He got drunk and passed out, that adorable rat-fink.

===''Headmasters'' manga===

[[Image:DanielWheelie.jpg|thumb|Wheelie knows of many joys, best of all is supple young boys!]]

Shortly after the defeat of [[Scorponok (G1)|Mega Zarak]], [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundblaster]] showed up and began to attack!  Wheelie, unprepared, took a kick right to the face.  Soundblaster got all up in his grill, saying "Bitch!  Know your place!"  When [[Slugfest]] and [[Overkill]], took hostage [[Carly]] and [[Spike Witwicky|Spike]], [[Daniel Witwicky|Daniel]] went berserk and started to strike!  Sending the Cassette dinosaurs running back home, Soundblaster was left open to an attack from [[Chromedome (G1)|Chromedome]].  As the Autobots left Earth, Wheelie and Daniel said "Goodbye".  They huggled and they snuggled and the reader just screamed "WHY!?!"

===Marvel Comics continuity===
''(Note: if you see something in italics, don't look away, it just means the stories happened in the UK.)''

''None too far did Wheelie roam - still, he called [[Quintessa|Quintesson]] his home. For Rodimus Prime he was quite the spy, he liked to report on what the local would try. Wreck-Gar's rescue was his claim to fame, then he helped the Junkions spoil the Quints' good name.''

===Dreamwave Comics continuity===

[[Image:Wheeliedw.jpg|left|thumb|Wheelie is feral!  Let's hope he's sterile.]]

Although [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]] promised peace to one and all, Wheelie was smart and for that ruse he did not fall.  He joined a team along with [[Gnaw]], his [[Sharkticon]] pet.  Together they strived to unveil Shockwave's evil threat.  

[[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] joined their side, but Wheelie thought him a brute.  In retaliation, he bit the [[Supreme Commander]]'s boot.

Believe it or not, just like in Japan, Wheelie did not rhyme once, much to the joys of many a fan.

===''Universe: The Wreckers'' comics===
[[Image:Wheeliewreckers.jpg|right|150px|thumb|For only Daniel [[Arcee (G1)|Arcee]] cried, but poor Wheelie also died!]]

With [[Doctor Fujiyama the Famous Scientist|Dr. Fujiyama]] in tow, the Autobots were quite screwed.  It seems a legion of [[Nightbird]]s were in a terrible mood!  With Wheelie injured thanks to a shot in the back, scar-faced Daniel realized the villains would cut them no slack.  Prepared to die to stop the evil hordes, Wheelie told Daniel these few final words: "Through all our lives, I've been your friend.  But now it's time for this to end."

Kaboom!

====''Universe'' comics====

In an alternate reality Wheelie was not quite yet gone.  He fought within [[Unicron]] to release all the [[energon]]!  Trapped in a cage, Wheelie was doomed to meet his maker.  However, he was saved by [[Silverbolt (BW) (Fuzor)|Silverbolt]] and [[Trailbreaker]]!

===''Teletraan Go! Go!'' mini-comics===
[[Teletraan 15]]'s panties are so frilly and white. But when Wheelie peeked, [[Teletraan 10|10]] took this as a slight! [[Kup]] also came to give Wheelie a scolding, but then hugged 15, whose spine now needs remolding!

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
*'''Wheelie''' (Mini Vehicle, 1986)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-80'''

[[Image:G1Wheelie_toy.jpg|thumb|left|]]

: Wheelie's transformation does not go very far, he turns into a generic "futuristic car".  Surprisingly enough, the fans' fancy he tickles, as he's the only new mold of the third-year [[Mini Vehicles]].

: This mold was [[redeco]]ed much later on, into an old friend of Prime's who was named [[Dion]].

*'''Future Cybertron''' (Transformers Collection, 2005)
:''Japanese ID number:'' '''TF-20'''

: Wheelie was reissued in a Japanese "bookbox" type of set.  [[Targetmaster]] [[Kup]] and [[Recoil]], you also did get!  The reissue's different in an unexpected way; where the old face was orange, the new one is gray!

==Trivia==
*In the first commercial where Wheelie appears, his voice didn't sound anywhere near! Although the actor was very much the same, much deeper and darker Wheelie's voice came.  Instead of the shrill rhyming 'bot we all knew, he sounded exactly like that mutt [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrappy-Doo Scrappy-Doo]!
