Reveal the Shield Lugnut head retool

First BB, then Darkmount & Thunderwing, and now: Lugnut. It's a pity this head ain't known so easily, or we might have a sense of satisfaction.

What the above botched-version of G1 Gavlatron's movie quote is referring to is that TFW2005 has an image of the instructions for Reveal the Shield Voyager Lugnut, which shows Lugnut's head to be a retooled version a la Generations Cybertronian Bumblebee as Cliffjumper, Darkmount as Skullgrin, and Thunderwing as Black Shadow.

However, what's different this time is that the head doesn't look very familiar and instead appears to be very ambiguous in design and identity. Go here for the image and let the speculation of who this retooled head represents begin.

Well so far they've been pretty good at putting out head sculpts that are totally left field of the original character. For all we know this is the new Powerglide or Cosmos.

They've already done both Powerglide and Cosmos in Universe (2008). They wouldn't redo them so soon like this.

It's kind of a stretch, and very unlikely, but maybe the other Lugnut (if you ignore the z)?

actually, The head looks as if it could be Shockwave, but the body doesnt really fit Shockwave. possible Soundwave? or maybe, once again kind of a stretch and very unlikley, Tidal Wave?

It looks like it only has one eye, but the head armor almost looks shaped similar to Megatrons head. Possibly another Micromaster (like Storm Cloud, Treadbolt, Big Daddy, Countdown, ect, ect) before they turned in to Micromasters?
