As a follow up to his earlier review of Transformers Prime "First Edition" Voyager Class Optimus Prime, peaugh has uploaded his review of Prime's casemate Voyager Bulkhead. Video embedded below.

Wow great review, I am really impressed with bulkhead. Since hes so big i figured he d just kind of open up inctead of an involved transformation, and Im glad to see he does have one Scale on all those guys is remarkably accurate, the only ones out of place would be arcee and megatron

In short, lovin bulkhead, cant wait til i pick him up

First edition figures i don't get that, so the other runs have less paint? If that's thecase, then that's ridiculous.

From what Ive heard, the first edition basically is just a preview wave. Most figures will be unchanged when it goes to the normal line. cliff and BB are gettin remolds, but thats about it. No less paint or anything. First edition just has a lil cardboard stand and a sticker that says first edition

I WANT THESE NOW!!!!!! damn, this bulkhead is just incredible!!!! yeah, im gonna get all the TF prime toys. i have a big question
will the toys in the first edition wave be in retail stores?!??!?!

Me too!! As to the retail thing, I have looked everywhere. Basically, your options in the immediate future are online or TRU. theres no defintive answer as to when theyll be in stores, but im guessing early next year. But yes they will be in retail. Eventually.

Watching football on Fox today I realized Bulkhead looks like the Fox football robot. Am I just slow or did anyone else notice this?

this may be nit-pickey, but hes a bit mis transformed. The doorpannels should sit further back so you can see the headlights on his chest.

great toy none the less

Yea youre right, also if you look by his by his stomach his wheels are kinda hangin down like robo-lovehandles or sumthin

hey i was just wondering was there just a subtle colour differece or just the packaging with the first edition wave of the tf prime figures?

might be a paint difference in the Japanese vs these, but no, for the first edition and main release they should be the same

I'm getting 2 - 1 for TF: Prime and the other to be my Classics Bulkhead.

I may do the same, especially if the Takara version looks good. This mold is outstanding.

That's a pretty awesome idea, but maybe they'll make an actually classics Bulkhead someday.

This figure looks amazing, and is pretty much at the top of my list of Prime figures to get. Can't wait! Not that I have money, but... yeah. lol

WOW
that is a FANTASTIC transformation .. and he looks AMAZING in both modes
He's definitively a must have.
-on another note-
The accuracy of these figures is getting me as excited as I was about Animated .. Hasbro.. YOU'VE DONE IT AGAINNNNNN -wallet cries in fear- !!

THAT is one beautiful looking figure. Cannot wait to get my hands on it. Simplh amazing transformation. Is there any knowledge as to how the second edition will differ from this? I could've sworn I'd seen an image of Bulkhead with his three barrelled blasters.

That is the only thing I hate about the Prime line: if it wasn't hard enough choosing between Hasbro and Takara versions, we'll also have two molds for each character to choose from. You buggers HasTak!

Dear Hasbro,

Thank you for finally making something good after the **** known as DotM Mechtech. These Transformers Prime toys look incredible, but I have one question:

WHERE THE H311 IS OUR LEADER MEGATRON?????????????

Sincerely, prowl123

Bulkhead in this picture is mistransformed. Peaugh actually has it right if you compare it to the CGI model. The windows on the doors are supposed to cover the headlights. The CGI model has the windows on the doors down where you can see the headlights. The Voyager has the windows up and are tinted making it hard to see the lights. The wheels are supposed to be pegged on his upper back.

No surprise there. I just love how Hasbro mistransforms their own toys.

So it is, but its still more CGI Accurate if you can see the headlights

It's not Hasbro that mistransforms them, it's their PR company that takes the pictures of the figures. They often recieve first-off-the line figures and/or coloured prototypes to take the images with, and the instructions aren't available to them yet. Heck, everytime I see one that's properly transformed into both robot and vehicle mode, I'm impressed.
