Pretty sure it is judt scorponoks tail folded up weird.
Also, if the hammer is just a piece of cardboard, they just saved me a lot of money. Looks like I can cancel and hold off on some of these now.

BTW apparently there isn't going to be a Topspin in this line, it's just Twintwist and Bulkhead left. Odd decision

Maybe Wrecker "Diaclone" Top Spin will show up in the Buzzworthy Bumblebee line instead? Or as a Generations Selects release later on? I think it's more likely than not that he'll show up sooner or later in some other line or collection.

That… makes me a lot less excited for this Twin Twist. I don’t hate the deco and I am not against diaclone characters as generic soldiers in the Autobot army, but Not having both cuts the appeal for me.
I will probably pre order though because I am a sap

That just seems kind of odd to me. There have been 2 pairs of deluxes already, 3rd pair only seems logical, and 2 Voyagers ( one revealed today and one left).
If there are 2 deluxe pairs
2 Voyagers and then
A single deluxe....that would be very disappointing.

I missed out on Springer in WFC: Siege, so I’m all over this, even if I’m not a yuge fan of the deco.

Look at the pic with the boxes. That top box is smaller than the rest.

Amazon Exclusive Wreck N Rule Bulkhead Revealed

Thu May 12, 2022 8:03 amby william-james88
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:

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.

Further evidence that this toy should have been a G1-ified AOE/TLK Hound instead of Bulkhead.

Not really and not like it matters since live action hound is more like a live action bulkhead anyway.

Does not having bombshell and Shrapnel make it less exciting to have kickback? Does it mean they won’t make the other two? The powerdashers were spread out and were not all in one line. It took nearly a decade to get all of metroplex’s companions. It’s not the end if only twin twist is released by himself. It was a good 6+ wait to get both in titans return.

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.

The colors definitely look better here than the original, but I can't double dip for a figure I just got and only mildly enjoy

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

That's disappointing. I expected a more compelling repaint of Bulkhead. At the same time, whew! Can totally skip this line almost entirely. I'll likely pre-order Twin Twist. Still on the fence with Springer.

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.

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!!!!!!

Ha!, yes. I was kind of hoping for his Battle Tactics paint scheme.... silly me.
Anyway, we'll see if the Bulkhead mold gets another use for a different character later then. That Optimus Prime rumor may still hold some water.

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