TF08.net has put up galleries of both Transformers Animated Leader Bulkhead and Voyager Blitzwing. These are some nice and clear shots of the figures in all of their modes. You can view all of the mirrored images by clicking on the thumbnail to the left!

Because:
1) Prime isn't that tall
2) He already has 2 deluxe figures (one in a 2-pack), a voyager, the 'roll out command' figure, and probably an activator.
unless you mean Sentinal prime. in which case, I don't know.

Bulkhead looks cool!! How come Prime isn't a leader/voyageur?!

I love the size of the Leader Bulkhead. hate the sawblade. fortunately, it looks like the saw is held on with a screw, so it shouldn't be hard to remove and give him an empty hand. a hand with no articulation, but empty none the less.

It really, really blows that leader class figs are $59.99 up here in Canada! WTF.

So does this leader version of Bulkhead NOT have the ball weapon…?
Poho
OMFG blitzwing is tiny.

We already saw Blitzwing liek a lot of times!

My only gripe with leader bulkhead is the tan plastic used for the turret barrels in his alt mode, I think they stick out like a sore, ugly thumb. Also, anyone else notice that his eyes glow red? Something to do with his upgrade by headmaster for "evil" intentions as a hardcore killing machine perhaps?

I actually like the voyager Bulkhead better. He's smaller, but I like the design on him better. Especially two hands and not one buzzsaw hand.

These look good.

"Blitzwing hates these cans!!! Stay away from the cans!!!"
That's right. I've got nothing useful to add.

Nice pics, but I'm still not sure if I want to pick up Leader Bulkhead yet. I already have the voyager one and I think he's awesome, even if he's a shorty.
Blitzwing is a must-buy though.
Leader Bulkhead is supposed to represent upgrades that he gets in the series (somewhere within season 2 I believe). As far as I know, those two are the only versions of Bulkhead being released.
Megatron and Optimus have different releases showing off the Earth/Cybertron modes, weaponry, etc.

Leader Bulkhead, the wait for you will be long, but worth it. Then when you are mine, we will embrace. My birthday is around the time you'll be coming out too, oh joy!

I don't think it's a "bait and switch-type game." I remember filling out a poll by Hasbro asking whether we would like multiple size-class versions of the same character, which had been mostly phased out after Beast Wars/Machines. I responded favorably, as it gives non-completists the opportunity to purchase a version that best fits their space constraints, budget, and other preferences. As long as Hasbro's informing people that there will be multiple size-class versions of the same character to choose from, I see no problem in the practice other than it might annoy some completists to be buying multiple versions of the same character.

I am confused??? Are they planning to release every figure in Deluxe, Voyager and Leader mode? Cause I just want to collect one set and I like the Voyager class thus far. Or is hasbro playing a bait and switch type game. To bascially tempt us to buy 3-4 versions of the same figure. I hate that.

youre new to the internet, arentcha?

I like Blitzwing, he looks cool.

Blitz is definitely a Voyager. His box was on display at Botcon, and the robot is roughly the same height as Voyager Optimus Prime (without being skinny like Lockdown)
Deadend
I'm leaning voyager bulkhead myself. Size be damned, he just has that animated persona nailed.
Also, have we had official confirmation Blitzy's a voyager? I know Bulkhead was short, but between blitz's wings, and and various joint use, he feels weird to me as a voyager. Those look like all the corner cutting joints for a deluxe. Then again, maybe he was too small for those types of joints in his body, but too many pieces to be considered a deluxe class by cost.

i agree with you 100 percent on leader bulkhead's 'normal' proportions.
i like that this is big and gimmicky and love the voyager for the 'toon-accurate'ness but hate its 'deluxe-class'ness.
we may just have to buy both the voyager and the leader class then (for those who dig bulkhead).
money smart, this Hasbro
