Bulkhead is the name of four fictional characters from the Transformers franchise. All incarnations of Bulkhead are Autobots and are green in color. He was introduced in Transformers: Energon and later redebuted in Transformers: Animated as a completely new character. The Animated Bulkhead became so popular that he was adapted to reappear in Transformers: Prime. Whereas he was a minor character in Energon, the Animated/Prime Bulkhead appears as a main character in both series.
Bulkhead is the name of an Autobot who transforms into a helicopter. According to Quickstrike's bio, he and Bulkhead are cousins. According to Aaron Archer, Bulkhead's goggles-and-mustache look was inspired by Paul Teutul Sr. from American Chopper.
Bulkhead first appears in episode 30 of the Transformers: Energon animated series, "Jungle Planet". Bulkhead is an elderly but energetic high-ranking Autobot who commands the team consisting of himself, Cliffjumper, and Downshift. He could also enter a 'brute mode' by combining with a section of his helicopter mode, seen only fleetingly in a few episodes. He last appears in the series finale, episode 51, "The Sun".
Bulkhead first appears in issue 27 of the Dreamwave Productions Transformers: Energon comic. He originally appears as part of the Autobot reinforcements under Jetfire who head to Earth to fend off the Terrorcon invasion.
Bulkhead appears in the text story from Fun Publications called "Force of Habit". This story explains where he was during the events of the Cybertron story. Ultra Magnus is the commander of various Autobot ships sent to other planets in search for the Cyber Planet Keys.
Bulkhead is a main character in the Transformers Animated series that debuted in 2007 on Cartoon Network. He is the only Autobot among the main five character cast whose name does not originate from a Generation 1 character. In the 2010 Japanese version of the series, he is known as Ironhide.
