Speaking of borderline Cyberverse
The difference is that Bulkhead is a larger figure, thus should be a bit more complex.
I get the logic, but in practice, the only time that was ever true was with the Bayverse Leaders. Ever since then, complexity hasn't really been higher for larger classes. The first leader in the Generations class was Jetfire and he was not at all more complex than anything below him. Same for Combiner Wars Megatron, SS Grimlock, Siege Shockwave and on. I can't recall anything in the Earthrise line more complex than deluxe Cliffjumper. This Bulkhead seems as complex as fellow voyagers Inferno or Grapple. The big difference is that he looks simple due to the chest being so obviously the truck front and not more in line with the bot's silhouette unlike Inferno or Grapple. But regardless of what I've written I do agree with your criticism though, the end result aint great.

Oddly enough, I never considered Bulkhead fat (not prime one, which is where I first learnt of the character). He was just round and big. He doesn't look fat like a human would (or movie Hound or Leadfoot do) with the larger protruding part being in the belly area. It was just an interesting transformer physique to me, something not seen before either for cybertronians or humans.
but hopefully some good pics available. Car bots really sem to have suffered with the start of wfc.
