| This article is about the Galaxy Force Mini-Con. For the Beast Wars: Uprising Micromaster, see Bulge (BWU). |
- Bulge is an Animatronian Mini-Con from the Cybertron portion of the Unicron Trilogy continuity family.
A member of the Hellflame Mini-Con Team, Bulge (バルジ Baruji) enforces the rule of the mighty Scourge with his projectile-weapon attacks as a Gatling gun, a rare ability among the citizenry of the Jungle Planet.

[edit]
- Hellflame Bulge White Version (Promotional Micron, 2005)
- Release date: April 28, 2005
- A redeco of the Armada Emergency Mini-Con Team member Makeshift, Bulge transforms into a twin-rotor helicopter similar to an Osprey. He has a third weapon mode, turning into double Gatling cannon; a new 5 mm post handle has been glued onto this tail strut so he could be used as a hand-held weapon.
- The special all-white version of Bulge was released before the normal shades-of-gray version in April, as a JUSCO store exclusive, free with the purchase of Ligerjack (the Japanese version of Leobreaker).
- Hellflame Bulge (Promotional Micron, 2005)
- Release date: June 23, 2005
- The normal gray version of Bulge (pictured above) was available much later than his teammates, in June of 2005 with the purchase of any Galaxy Force (the Japanese name for Cybertron) toy at any store that was a "TF Station" affiliate in Japan.
- This toy doubles as Beast Wars: Uprising Bulge.
