Thanks for the news!

Looks real spiffy there.

Very interesting. It looks like Voyager Bulkhead wanted to show everyone he wasn't a runt and amped up the 'tude with black.

He's still runty, hehe.

I like the look, it gives me the impression of an "Elite Guard" version of Bulky.

That's one nice paint scheme. With Hasbro's use of the same name ten times, I get a Roadbuster feel from him. lol.

I doubt it but whatever he will be named, he still is a win in my book.

"Incredible Hulk" Bulkhead, perhaps...

Since this is the Voyager and not the Leader, I may have to pick it up...

Hm, I didn't get the original, but I meant to... I might get this if it really comes out.

I like it! Goes well with the black collection or variants.

Damn! I've been waiting for a repaint of voyager Bulkhead. I never picked up the original because I went with the leader version instead. Now they finally do and what do we get? Green. Again. But now with some black and some weird gold design. Really, and thing other than green. Just to make him stand out from the Leader version. How about a Pyro homage? Just replace the green on this with red. Sorry Hasbro. Fail. Try harder next time.

He's not a runt, just a really big activator. :grin:

Err...I'm pretty sure this has been mentioned before. We've heard rumors of a Bulkhead repaint for quite some time now.

Seriously, am I the only one who reads the news on these things anymore?

EDIT: I remember the supposed name of the repaint now....

Workzone Bulkhead.

I don't know if this was the color scheme they intended, but I do remember that name, and that there was a repaint coming.

He dosen't look that bad... i just don't really like the figure, but the black paint apps really looks nice

Meh, still not liking him.

But anybody else at all curious about the RED one.
Might they be trying to use Bulky as Ironhide's earth mode, with a new head maybe?

i actually prefer the leader mold of bulkhead.... but this repaint looks great on the voyager!

The red one, in this set of pictures, is a bootleg. There was a red prototype and Seibertron had a gallery of it, but that's the long and short of it.

Both green colored Bulkheads are the real deal.

And we're receiving an Animated Ironhide. It's a repaint, with a new head, of the upcoming Cybertron Ratchet figure.

the bright green reminds me of something radioactive-ish.... perhaps he's atomic bulkhead?

by **Heckfire** » Wed Sep 02, 2009 8:57 pm

I like it...and the black'll make him easier to redo into Motormaster.

Nope but it's the first I've read about it. Though, I haven't been here very long.

Now I could be wrong, but I thought that name was for the Legends Repaint.

I'll doublecheck though

EDIT: Well, I was close, but Workzone was for the Bumper Battlers Version. I suppose they could reuse the name.

Well it's okay I guess. I don't like how they didn't really change the colours all that much, it's still the same mold with green paint.

News Credits: 1 · by **shonenfan4** » Wed Sep 02, 2009 11:02 pm

This repaint is like an evil Bulkhead, still liking the original color scheme though. :-?

News Credits: 767 · by **Dead Metal** » Thu Sep 03, 2009 2:05 am

It looks like Bulkhead decided to cosplay as Lockdown.

It's possible that Animated would continue its storyline in comic format, which could be used to explaine that continue of the toyline.
