    Interesting, definitely interesting. Not sure I'll get him, but it would be nice to own the mold (never did get the original). I'm curious to see what name they'll give him. I personally would have preferred something... less green. It's a different shade from the original, but still, would have been better with something more different, like the red of the ko version there, or something.

    That's... the stupidest freaking repaint ever, it makes Atomic Lugnut look like a good idea!

    I'm trying to understand the reasoning behind this repaint. If Hasbro really wanted to tie back to the fiction in some way, they could have used one of the DOZENS of paint schemes for Bulkhead used in the Insincerest Form of Flattery comic (from The Arrival TPB), Personally, I would get a kick out of owning Angry Archer's "getaway chariot" or Professor Princess' rainbow colored nightmare. But I'm strange like that. Ha!

    I'm on the same page as you.

    But this is a KO anyway, so it doesn't really matter.

    red one is the knock off version

    the green and gold is 100% legit, i could find and take a pic of the trademark if i had to

    There were red prototypes, but this red one here is a ko (which we have seen red ko Bulkheads in the past). None of the red prototypes had any paint apps on them at all.

    The red one is a ko, but the green/black/gold one is definitely legit.

    Looks like a repaint if i'm mistaken of the Activator Bulkhead.

    Or a repaint of a smaller repaint of a figure.

    Like I thought there was a figure that was painted like this.

    And this "Voyager" is a repaint of that figure in the top sentence.

    I quite like this. It's all silly and random.

    I'll pass on this, but it does look cool. Always nice to see new Animated toys coming out.
