    Hopefully that is revealed tomorrow. If not, then even Hasbro acknowledges it's a cheap piece of cardboard trash only useful for the "collect all 5 to make the thing!" tag line in the advertising

    Bulkhead looks good! This deco really works for him. I'm happy with Legacy Bulkhead (and prefer him slightly) though, so I'll be sticking with that one.

    The hammer is an interesting choice, especially since this mold also uses a shoulder-mounted weapon. Both being TFP Breakdown things rather TFP Bulkhead ones. Still, they work fine with this take on him.

    While that's not enough to justify the second purchase of this mold, I must admit having two mace hands for him would be quite cool.

    Because didnt want them getting sold out if the hammer thing was actually worth it but now cant even be bothered with that given how much of a let down the last 2 have been its not worth all of them now.

    It was the same way with the Golden Disc collection on Amazon... cardboard backgrounds made an image of a golden disc and one character came with a small golden disc. Here the backgrounds make the image of a statue of Emirate Xaaron holding the hammer, and Bulkhead comes with a small hammer.

    Friendly reminder that the purple thing they’re standing on is Titan Class Scorponok and the statue behind them is Emirate Xaaron. In case anyone was still confused by it.

    I dont normally but im a massive wreckers fan and the first 2 I was like ok another impactor could be ok but after seeing Springer and now that Bulkhead its put me right off. Will prob grab Twin Twist and Top Spin as missed them last time.

    Its a shame really there was so much potential and they screwed it.

    Seems like a Rack n' Ruin out of one of the ER Modulators (X2) would have been a no-brainer and made a fantastic build-a-figure across these 5 sets.

    (and would have gotten me at least to buy all 5 sets that I'm now not buying)

    Not gonna lie the paintjob looks cool but this still isn't enough to make me want to get this mold as Bulkhead. Funny thing is I would maybe have considered it if they put Wheeljack in there and gave him swords (yes we've gotten ER Wheeljack too many times but still) because that'd have at least been a nicer throwback to Prime but as is I can already see myself not completing the Wreck'N'Ruin thing because compared to the other sets this is just uninteresting.

    *wreckers was created as a made-up team full of left-over toys that weren't featured elsewhere, plus two new guys*

    *35 years later*

    HOW DARE NEW GUYS, ONLY OLD GUYS

    Can’t argue with that. I eat up repaints so I’m loving this line.
