REAL BLUEstreak straight off the official Hasbro G1 box. If anything, the all silver toy & the version in the cartoon were mistakes and are "SILVERstreak". The official GI box of Bluestreak shows the original blue Diaclone art. Why are people refusing to accept this truth? I don't understand why everybody is trying to act like the official G1 box that Hasbro did in fact release in stores is not Bluestreak. What exactly is going on here? I'm the only one saying "THAT IS THE REAL BLUESTREAK" the way he was originally supposed to be. People are calling the blue figure "silver" & the silver figure "blue" and it doesn't make any sense at all.
Bluestreak was BLUE on the official G1 box officially released by Hasbro. And in the original G1 instruction booklet. Why can't anybody accept this?
STOP calling it SILVERstreak!
BLUEstreak is
BLUE! The official Hasbro box says so. Nobody can argue with that. It's a done deal whether you like it or not.
OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL straight from Hasbro. This is what BLUEstreak looks like:
1. Was the figure in that box blue? Because if not, it doesn't matter since box art & renders still get figure's appearances wrong to this day, and this was just the earliest example.
2. If the OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL stance from Hasbro is that Bluestreak is blue like you're claiming, why is this new leaked one the first ever Generations figure of "Bluestreak" that's an actual blue one, and why did they have the figure be called Silverstreak in the listing? Surely if they were really of the opinion that Bluestreak should be/is blue, they would have fixed that "mistake" years ago, and the Siege and ER Bluestreaks we just got would be the ones called Silverstreak.
There's no one stopping you from switching the names in your personal collection if it bothers you that much, but the rest of us are calling them what we are because that's what Hasbro has established they're called, "acceptance" has nothing to do with it.

Bulkhead is rumored to share the same mold as Optimus.
Did that ever get "confirmed" by a leaker? Last I heard people couldn't tell if the leaker was serious or not since he posted that on April Fool's day.

Sadly yes, the leaker confirmed that that was legit info as far as they know, and that they only initially posted it on April Fool's Day to lessen the blow of the bizarre decision by letting the fans receiving the leaked info think it was a bad prank at first, since they knew everyone would be baffled by that choice.
...although, with that said, apparently more listings have been found and they are...too non-specific and confusing for me to try to decipher this late at night, but COULD be throwing a wrench in the accuracy of that info, so I'm going to bed and hoping someone else sorts that mess out before I'm up.
What would another Nemesis even turn into if not Trypticon? I don't really need another Trypticon.
