Not really and not like it matters since live action hound is more like a live action bulkhead anyway.
Slightly off topic, but people keep saying this and I just don't get it. The only things they really have in common are being fat and green. It's like saying DotM Sentinel is like a live action RID Optimus because they're both tall, red, and turn into fire trucks.
Then you just don’t get it then
But what don't I get?
It’s not the only thing they have in common. They have similar personalities. The prime version. Both yes are big and green but both are head strong, fierce and jump into battle and like the action, put that with how they look and they’re very similar. Intentional or not
Interesting. I've always seen Bulkhead as more of a "gentle giant" type character, but I'm admittedly much more familiar with him from Animated than from Prime. Thanks for the insight.

There's gonna be one in a Walmart exclusive subline. Him along with Cybertron Override (heavy retool of SS86 Hot Rod), G1 Hauler, G1 Cosmos (heavy retool of Warpath), some kind of Blurr, Diaclone Burn Out, G2 Road Rocket from Legacy Arcee, and Diaclone ClampdownAllNewSuperRobot wrote:Autobot N wrote:Finally managed to snag a Laser Prime on Amazon, it'll be here Monday

Surprised a Scourge redeco hasn't been announced/greenlit already though?

And give us a white version as G1 Drift!

william-james88 wrote:The Wreck N Rule line is an odd duck. It uses characters that were all part of a Wreckers team at some point but many of these releases get a deco referencing something else. Today's reveal is Bulkhead, who was a wrecker in the Prime cartoon. His deco, however, references movie Hound which does have a similar alt mode in camo deco in Age of Extinction, though not as bright.
Interestingly enough, the toy comes with an extra accessory, a small hammer, which Breakdown had in the Transformers Prime show.
Here are the preorder links:
Amazon:
Pulse (in very limited quantities):

Man at least you still expected Bulkhead. Other fans out there were hoping for a redeco of the Bulkhead mold into a G1 Pyro. And well, Wolfmanjake already used my line about hope. It held true!!!!!!

I wasn't sure what it was going to be, but I did think it would at least be a new character, not just bulkhead with a little Camo...oh well, this is an easy pass.
Also WJ thanks for the previous pointing out of the boxes for this collection. For some reason I thought they were all the same size. Top one is definitely smaller. It makes sense unfortunately. I hope we do get a Diaclone Topspin down the line at some point though.

Nah, Pyro would need a retooled version of the mold. More like a Partsformer...

Its kind of like Basic Instinct, but not in a good way...
Goddammit, now I can't unsee it.
First-Aid wrote:What the heck are they doing?
I've said it in the past...repaints are the wimp's way out. The problem is that Hasbro has figured out that Transfans aren't the brightest bulbs on the Christmas tree and that they will snap up just about any repaint as long as there is a good backstory or something relating directly to G1 lore (*cough* *Seekers* *cough*). Is this line worth it? It it even really a "Wreckers" team? Eye of the beholder...but until we stop simply snapping up repaints, HasTak is going to continue to be LAZY and not really give us anything new or creative.

I think you're looking at it from the wrong angle.
Yes, redecos are cheap to do, that's one reason they're usually reserved for store exclusives with new molds restricted to main lines, and exclusives are when they're listening more closely to the fans while working within the limits they imposed on themselves. It's not that we're not the brightest bulbs (not entirely anyway), but more that we're mostly opportunists who'll grab anything that may not appear again for a long time, playing into our FOMO emotions, but it's also a way of showing appreciation for digging that deep into the brand's history as a whole.
Whole new molds as a store exclusive? It's been done, but as WFC Netflix Soundwave has shown it's more of a hassle in the long run due to the exclusivity of the molds in question staying with that store for god knows how many years, leading to more fan boy complaint than usual. Yeah, it'll always be there*, but in Soundwave's case it may be more than Hasbro is willing to deal with.
So... Does this mean the whole line have been revealed now? Where's Topspin?!!!![]()
