| The archetypal gentle giant, '''Bulkhead''' likes nothing more than to collect butterflies on his own time, though he can still be a fierce warrior when the need arises.<ref>''[[Transformers: Kre-O Character Encyclopedia]]''</ref> He may or may not be a [[Wrecker]].

| |
| Bulkhead was one of the [[Autobot]]s who left [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] in the ''[[Ark (Kre-O)|Ark]]'' in search for energy blocks to alleviate their hunger. Thanks to the boarding of the ''Ark'' by [[Decepticon]]s, the ''Ark'' crashed and the [[Transformer]]s fell into a four million year-long sleep. They woke up to a world filled with blocks. {{storylink|Kreon Story}}

| : As part of the second wave of [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] [[Micro-Changer]]s, Bulkhead is a Kreon patterned after ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Transformers Animated]]'' [[Bulkhead (Animated)|Bulkhead]]. He can be rebuilt into a military vehicle of some sort. He uses the [[Hound (Kre-O)|Hound]] helmet.
| |
| | |
| :Care must be taken from his vehicle mode: His face's tampograph (which it serves as his bumper joint) is prone for being scratched off if the toy's vehicle mode is "rolled" on the flat surface. Try to replace it with a black/grey 1x1 cylinder block will amend this, or you can just turn the head around and make sure to lift the cockpit off before taking the head off again.
| |
| | |
| : This Collection was still in circulation at "dollar" stores and drug stores up through 2015. They eventually lost the individual-identifying bag codes, but other changes were hidden inside the bag. The 2015 releases replaced the 2x4 logo stand-brick with a new 3x4 logo plate. The Kreon was also given the slight [[retool]]ing to the arm seen in the 2014 Kreons, making the "cuff" parts more sharp-cornered and better adapted to being used as studs. Some of the add-on pieces may also be slightly off-color, possibly due to a change in factories in mid-production.

| :In 2016, Collection 2 was re-released in a whole new production run for Dollar General stores in the US as part of a large collection of re-released ''Kre-O'' sets. But where most of these releases are nigh-identical to the originals, the re-released Micro-Changer blind-bags use the almost-entirely-retooled 2015 Kreon, with slightly-differently-hued plastics than the originals; Bulkhead's olive plastic is particularly lighter than his first release. (It is possible for some of the add-on pieces to be in the older hues.) Bulkhead's [[tampograph]]s also got a bit of a tweak, changing the "toe" paint to black, the tummy-grille gray to shiny silver, and adding a white outline to his Autobot symbol.
| |
| | |
| :Sadly, this release has no individual-identification code on the bag, requiring you to use the feel-through-the-bag method or just buy blind and hope.
| |
| | |
| ==Notes==
| |
| * Bulkhead's [[stock photography]] omits the black windscreen stripe [[tampograph]]. It also shows him with black feet, where the final toy has green. The 2016 version corrects the feet to black, but still comes with the 2015 instructions, depicting the toy with green feet.
