One of Prime Bulkhead's closest friends was the former Wrecker, Wheeljack. However, Wheeljack's history as a mechanical engineer and more can be seen here - kzread.info/dash/bejne/lmdpusylXZeucpc.html Ready to bust up the Decepticons with his wrecking ball hands in the world of the Transformers, Bulkhead is earning his place among his fellow Autobots with today's Retrospective!

Bulkhead is the best stand out character in both Transformers Animated and Transformers Prime.

I’ve always been a fan of Bulkhead ever since the animated cartoon. I loved the character in Prime and that is still my favorite iteration of him. When it comes to the legacy figure I actually enjoy him a lot more than I initially thought I would. He fits great with a G1 generations display. I’m sure we will get a proper updated primed figure in the near future from Hasbro.

I love Bulkhead. He’s easily one of my favourite Autobots. I started watching Animated for the first time a few weeks ago (got up to Blackarachnia’s introduction) and adored the clumsy giant all over again.

This review was so cool. I love bulkhead on prime. He reminded me a lot like rhinox. . He was my favorite beast wars character. So awesome.

The TFA version is my favorite.

as someone who grow up with TFP,i love bulkhead,his unique heavy design and color scheme is the reason,i do like his personality in the show and his realtionship with miko,the legacy toy looks decent and it needs the TFA bulkhead jaw thing

Love this Retrospective. Bulk is fast becoming one of my top favorite new-ish characters!

10:43 I personally doubt it. I feel it’s way more likely that he was simply based and designed to fit John Goodman’s voice. I think makes sense given how Drift and Sentinel Prime were modeled after real life people as well. Not to mention his personality is typical of Autobots in the Bayverse since practically all of them are trigger happy.

Well apparently bulkhead was originally gonna be used, since age of extinction takes a lot of plot queues from animated, such as the severed megatron head being used to make more robots but the living head taking matters into its own hands

Bulkhead I feel was very memorable in both TF prime and animated and was where I fist found out about the character as that big strong brute of the group whose fun abit playful at times and is that extra muscle needed within the battlefield against the enemy

Animated and Prime are my favourite versions of Bulkhead.

I love this character, and feel disappointed it & many non-g1 transformers haven’t reappeared in a show or movie in a long time.

Even though I didn't like animated all that much, I'll admit that the tfa version was the first "real" bulkhead to me.

He’s the big, not-so-mean, green machine we all love! :D

I grew up with the animated version of bulkhead so I have my bias for favorite bulkhead with that one

Yeah I agree about the Prime version. Energon Sprung's hips don't lie! Lol.

Bulkhead is a PRIME example of working on a character’s personality over multiple franchises until you finally get it right, which is actually rare for transformers, which is more known for drifting away from a successful character into very odd creative paths

3:37 NGL Imaging Bulkhead saying Patrick’s quotes is always hilarious. Which makes Animated Bulkhead the best version.

If Flint Dille - who put Bulkhead in the brilliant Autocracy series - sez Bulkhead is a legit Bot, then that's all ya need! I wasn't too hot on TF Animated, so TF Prime's Bulk became MY Bulk. He was so rotund and massive, he automatically dominated any scene he was in. The animators showed great skill in how they had him move his...ahem, BULK around. P.S., that "I Am Not Amused" shot @9.01 with Ultra Magnus is the funniest thing I've ever seen! 🤣

Bulkhead was always my favourite growing up, and his legacy toy is amazing

tho I grew up with Prime Bulkhead, and Energon definitely didn't suit the name of the character, I actually like TF Animated's Bulk because he was one of the best original characters from that series (like Lugnut & Lockdown), and his lovable personality (in both series); I would also like to see retrospectives on characters like Knock Out & Barricade, who have gotten recent figures in Generations (Barricade in the WFC Trilogy, & Knock Out in Legacy)

Rodimus, I have an interesting discussion topic! How would Transformers as a franchise be different if the G.I.Joe movie was released FIRST? The G.I.Joe movie was changed to make Duke survive the film in response to all of the backlash from Optimus Prime's death. But, what if Transformers the Movie came out AFTER that, and the let Duke die in the G.I.Joe movie? Do you think they still would've killed off Optimus? How would the rest of the series and franchise have been affected by this changr?

*Rest in peace French Tickner you did amazing as Bulkhead.* 1:53 That Texas voice Autobot love showing his skills for the young bots. 2:06 wow like wow. 2:48 No this Bulk I mean Patrick plus his voice sound good as him. 3:36 Agree Bulk. 4:36 I with Optimus that doesn't make no sense Bulkhead and Ironhide are both different characters they aren't a like. 6:40 Yup. 6:56 and also Ratchet's line. 7:06 Bulkhead should have that for his offroad truck horn. 8:14 Wreckers forever and they don't call fir back up they for clean up. 8:26 a few clean up and join in Team Bee. 9:15 Action time and yeah Hound's Bayformers design look like Hound but fit for Hound good. 10:37 Bulkhead fit so good in Transformers series from a farmer to become a Wreckers my favorite Bulkhead is Prime Bulkhead he is good, plus The Energon Bulkhead will be remember and come back soon thank you for the video.

I'm going to be frank with you rodimus, my love for the character made me hate the Legacy character when they announced it, having the animated voyager and loving the prime version I felt it was an insult to the character, until i bought that figure and it slammed my mouth shut it just rekindled my love for that big green chubby bulkhead and i cant wait to get the 1st edition apc toys ko and RiD's voyager to have them in all their versions and torture breakdown a bit

It's always great to see this loveable lug, the Energon version was okay, though, "Springer" would've fit him better, or perhaps "Cup".

Yay, a video on Bulkhead! Now do the other Wrecker: Seaspray!

Dam transformers Prime is so good!!

disagree because he doesn't have Bulkheads' chin or a penchant for Destruction - Hound loves to shoot things up much like Ironhide.

Arcee had also been killed off in the live-action movies and she (at least a fembot with her name) was still included in the Transformers: Prime series. So I don't think the death of Ironhide in the live-action movies had anything to do with Ironhide not being included in Transformers: Prime.

Direct quote from Hasbro's Rik Alverez in the Transformers Prime Blu Ray special features said that was why Ironhide was switched out with Bulkhead.

I love The Transformers Prime's version of Bulkhead. I wish more could have done with that original series then what came after. His legacy figure is good, I wish they did something else than Prime's windows chest ect. Going off topic for a moment, in later Legacy waves. When they create the G1 Predacons, I really love the Predacons, they're my favorites Decepticons. I just hope, they don't make Razorclaw like they did with Motomaster. Motormaster looks good and all, just something about him turns me off to the figure. It puts me off on collecting The Stunticons. A great video, and thank you for all the time and effort put into this and the many others you've created. Thank you.

When do we get a shattered glass Rodimus Primal?🤔😏

The best Bulkhead was it´s incarnation from TF Prime, since it was strong character with a heart of gold and enough brain to understand when he had to use his fist and when not

3:36 He should just take Cybertron, and push it somewhere else

Bulkhead was a new character who should have always existed.

6:40 Ironically. In AoE and TLK, they made a character that resembles Bulkhead but was called “Hound” instead (probably to not confuse the younger fans, who are only familiar with Prime).
