    im with the majority on this one, ill pass on bulkhead...too small...and smokescreen looks fantastic being that we didnt get an actual american version. i did buy the am version only for fear that they wouldnt give us one but im definately gonna get this one to combat my predacons. and i was gonna skip this entire line as well, but i saw soundwave in hand and gave in! hes mah favrit! but just out of curiosity...does anyone else see tmnt dressed up in prehistoric clothes and riding dinos when they see these beast hunters toys? just wondering... o yeah... GIVE US A HARDSHELL TOY!!!

    Yeah, be interesting if I can possibly kitbash a more Brawnish or Roadbusterish head on to that mold for my TFP Wreckers display.

    Haha, 7 Bulkheads and 1 Smokescreen in BH Wave 2: the fanrage and scalperwank would be off the charts. XD

    Bulkhead is interesting and Smokescreen looks okay. I might get smokescreen but I'm still keeping my AM version.

    Oh no, I was just joking about Smokescreen possibly being shortpacked, that's all. XD

    You guys know what bulkhead getting a deluxe this time means right? It's time to see Ratchet get his Voyager love! :)

    As another poster already mentioned, I think any future Voyager slot should go to Shockwave. Dude is a beast in the TFP continuity and gives Megatron a run for his money in the size department (compared to the disappointingly shrimpy FoC version).

    Or maybe a Voyager Insecticon/Hardshell somewhere since there was a rumor that a Cyberverse version was in the works; ditto with Breakdown since he was confirmed to have some sort of green redeco Cyberverse figure in a mech suit (similar to Cyberverse mech suit Bee).

    Another Bulk in roadbuster colors. Hmmm...I wonder if that means we're actually going to see him with this paint in the actual show.

    Ironicly I'm probably going to skip this Deluxe for the even smaller Cy-verse version.

    He looks like he'd make a pretty good Brawn, too. Better then what they tried to do with the FE Voyager. "Yeeeash...

    Smokescreen looks decent enough to warrant a purchase, especially since there was not a North American release of the non-spiky version.

    Smokescreen looks interesting. :)  Guess I may not have to get the AM Smokescreen figure after all. If the armour is detachible then he'll be bought in an instant!

    Bulkhead too is rather interesting. He does give off vibes of both Brawn and Roadbuster. Though why did they make him a deluxe? Couldn't they just made him be a retool of his RID Voyager instead? Either way I'll get him to reporpuse him into either Brawn or Roadbuster.

    Guess the only two Autobots left that we didn't see get upgrades yet is Arcee and Ratchet. We'll likely see them later on in the line unless of course something happens to them in the show or that they are Ripclaw and Laserback...

    A deluxe Bulkhead. That's... weird. I swear, Hasbro is making so many odd choices with this line.

    Smokescreen looks... pretty good. Making the spikes removable was a good idea. Looking forward to seeing a review.

    I'm not sure if I should HOPE that a BH Ratchet gets made, or pray that one DOESN'T get made.

    Not sure what to think about Smokey. Looks like a large fraction of his car ends up as this weird shoulder mounted cage kibble in robot-mode.

    I'll have to see better pics, but not really sure if I want.

    Love that Smokescreen, especially with his spikey bits being purely optional. I don't mind the fake chest, because that wasn't going to be pulled off right without some very complex stuff going on, which sucks for kids.

    Also loving deluxe Bulkhead's Animated-style chest.

    Both of these will be bought on sight. and that he's a small toy of a big character. I don't know why, but I always like those.

    Now I want a cheaty-chest Knockout.
