The name or term "Wheeljack" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Wheeljack (disambiguation).

Wheeljack is an Autobot in the Generation 1 continuity.

Optimus Prime! I built a machine that builds machines that build catapults!

Wheeljack is his own worst enemy. Somewhat of a crackpot inventor, a good half of his creations blow up in his face. He's simultaneously one of the Autobots' greatest assets and problems; for every successful gadget he builds, there's one which requires Ratchet to put him (and his lab) back together. But once in a while he strikes gold, which has won him respect from even the Decepticons.

Keeping him from being a complete nerd, Wheeljack is amazing on the road. There's few stunts he can't pull off. He enjoys showing off both on the design table and on the streets.

Victory Cartoon

Wheeljack, Perceptor and Minerva were summoned by Star Saber to save the life of the fallen Ginrai. They succeeded, transforming the former transtector into the mighty Victory Leo.

(Note: Wheeljack's not-being-deadness is never addressed. Though to Japanese viewers during the original airings, this was not a noticable discrepancy, as the movie where he died had not been shown in Japan until after Victory had aired. However, the original Movie storyboards show Smokescreen as the dead Autobot next to Windcharger.)
