Botcon 'Timelines' Weirdwolf showed up today! Normally, he came with Alpha Trion (repainted from Cybertron Vector Prime), but this one was being sold separately (but was still new and unopened in his original baggy). Weirdwolf himself is a redeco of Cybertron Fang Wolf (or 'Snarl' in the English version), and thus looks a bit more organic than his original toy or his Titans Returns version. Like Fangwolf, he has a Cyber Key-activated play feature - his wolf jaws open, revealing clear orange fangs; the feature can be used in both modes, and unlike other figures I have that use a Cyber Key, his doesn't 'lock' into place. As I understand it, this is intentional so that you can make him snap his jaws by pushing the key in and out without resistance, however it is possible to lock his jaws in the open position by rotating the tufts of 'fur' on his cheeks downward. He's also got a unique storage clip for his key on his left thigh (which becomes his right thigh in beast mode), which is pretty convenient.
You'll notice he has a totally different head from both his TR and normal releases - according to the included bio card, this is Weirdwolf post an experimental 'de-Headmaster' experiment, which forcibly unbound him from Monzo. While successful, the procedure made him even weirder by turning him literally schizophrenic; he now talks to his wolf-headed hand as if it were alive and has named it 'Wolfie'.
