Bumblebee initially had no interest in befriending Bulkhead, mockingly calling him a " mudflap", but an unlikely friendship blossomed after Bulkhead saved Bumblebee from some "malfunctioning" turrets, accidentally dropping a building on Sentinel in the process.
It was there that he first met Bumblebee and their trainer, Sentinel Minor, who gave him his codename after deciding that the gentle giant was "all bulk and no brains". Having read every space bridge schematic he could get his hands on, A Bridge Too Close, Part II the 'bot who would become "Bulkhead" left the energon farm to attend Autobot boot camp in the hopes that he could become a qualified space bridge engineer. "I'm gonna love him, and hug him, and pet him, and call him George!" Perhaps most surprising of all is that he is Cybertron's foremost expert in space bridge technology, even though he may not be able to build one himself without accidentally breaking at least half the components. He's not very good at it, but he keeps trying anyways. Since coming to Earth, he has discovered a love of art and the urge to express his true feelings through it. He's endlessly loyal to and protective of his friends, especially his best buddy Bumblebee and the human girl Sari, even if their impulsive behavior is sometimes annoying. He hates being thought of as the clumsy brute of the team, which has bred a certain amount of careful forethought and cautiousness.
Add in a seeming lack of skills beyond "destruction", and it does not paint a pretty picture.īut despite all these shortcomings, one is hard-pressed to find a bot with a bigger spark, and he has astounding (if sometimes well-hidden) depths. His penchant for being a little too eager to please others and getting a little too emotional at times further leads him to act without thinking. He's wrecked major thoroughfares and toppled skyscrapers in his zeal to be helpful when he gets angry, he's capable of berserker charges that even the Dinobots have learned to respect and fear. He also has an unfortunate tendency to break stuff by accident due to his sheer strength and natural clumsiness. Raised on a backwater energon farm, he joined the Autobot academy to achieve the lofty goal of becoming a lowly space bridge technician rather than a warrior.
The second and third glances don't do much to improve that impression. The biggest and strongest of Optimus Prime's crew, Bulkhead appears to be little more than a big, dumb lummox at first glance. Crumplezone called he wants his head back.
