It's weird how Hasbro can only push one girl character at a time. Few years there it was all Windblade, now Arcee again. You'd have thought maybe Elita would get some spotlight with the WFC but no sign of any toys. Hell, even the Sunbow female Autobot team got kinda slipped out without any fanfare, you'd maybe think they'd deserve a bit of a push after all this time, but no... One girl at a time. Siege had Chromia and er, the green one. Lancer was in Selects. Chromia again in W*NC. -Ralph

And I can't get out
Because I love '84/'85 too much, baby
Why can't you see
What it's doing to me
When nostalgia rips my wits aside
WE CAN'T GO ON COLLECTING
WITH UNSATISFIABLE MINDS
AND WE CAN'T REACH OUR DREAMS
With unsatisfiable minds....

I don't think it is. I can't see any single part that's the same, if you can please point it out! With Wheeljack his upper arms form the rear of the car and his lower arms the back of the wings with the rear wheels: opposite way round with Sunstreaker.
In case anyone's interested..... I think this is turn the waist round, fold the backpack up over the head, raise the arms, push them into the rear of the car and fold the lower arms behind the car. The legs/font of the car then collapse CW jet style, you can see the pin for the joint through the front of the leg

They didn't do a particularly great job at matching the yellow paint of the roof to tge yellow plastic. If it stands out this much in stock photos, it's gonna be terrible in hand.

Looking again I'm wondering if I didn't get the back the wrong way up and Sunstreaker has a very similar chest transformation to Wheeljack.
Still don't see any parts in common but lots of similar ideas

Still don't see any parts in common but lots of similar ideas It seems to me that the engineering only departs from Wheeljack in that the way the arms work is reversed. His weird back is the back of the car, like Wheeljack, only is meant to be covered by the engine, and not sculpted to look like a car, like Jack's.
