    I paid $20 for RiD Bulkhead and it feels like a $10 toy.

    Best way I heard to sum up how I feel about this one.

    Now that I have it, I still find it a pretty good figure. Might not be the FE, but it will do for me. All it took was just some minor changes and I was happy with it.

    I was originally going to skip this, but decided to pick it up since I'll probably never get the FE version.
    I ended up really liking this toy. The vehicle mode is good, and the robot mode, while not as accurate as the FE version, is still close enough and recognizably Bulkhead. The weapon is terrible, though that's to be expected with the Prime Voyager class. I like that the mace spins, though; it's like a high-tech disco ball.
    Overall, if you don't have the FE version and don't plan on getting it, pick this up. Nice easy transformation, good alt mode, good robot mode. $20 well spent.

    Yep, I'm sold. The FE surely does look better but the RiD doesn't look bad by any means. And I'm not gonna pay double the retail price for the FE, so I'll be happy to get RiD regardless.

    Finally got this guy and I think he's great. Weapon lighting gimmick works well and is actaully pretty fun. I modded Optimus's gun, but I'm not sure I'll mod Bulky's.

    I think the more troubling thing for me with this guy is the frighteningly thin panels in spots, but otherwise he's lots of fun.

    Why do the other Voyagers have glowing arms and he doesn't? Not complaining, but it's kinda odd... In a good way

    He does. It's just inside the arm.

    Exactly, and unlike Prime at least, Bulky's arms glow really well. So does the chest.

    Just got this guy, and he's much better than I thought he might be. I'm going to go ahead and echo what a lot of people are saying: if you only want one BH toy, and you can afford/already have the FE, then don't bother. Otherwise, he's a perfectly good toy. I'm certainly not disappointed with him.

    I love this figure!!! Just got him. Also I have the Japanese First Edition.

    This one has a better leg transformation and more show accurate legs. This one also has more articulated arms and more accurate shoulders.

    His Chest however is much worse, they should have just had it transform more like the FE or at least have the bumper sit up higher and cover the headlights. The panels above the wheels are just lazy!

    He looks goood when you remove the back panels, paint the heel tires and push out his chest windows to the side a bit.
