Thats one snazy bat! Called it being a Mindwipe retool, but would have loved to see that Scourge for the robot alone.
That is something. Man, they like that mold, don't they? Well, I might order it if I can for the novelty. Road Rage is a pass.
It’s a fun retool. I’d like to see how the colors come together in bat mode. Very willing to get him just for the novelty of it, much more than the other collabs.
I don't have any interest in owning it myself, but I find it super interesting that they completely removed the Headmaster gimmick. I would have assumed they'd keep it as a selling point, it's 2 toys in 1 if the child is young enough to actually believe that! I wonder if this opens up the possibility for this sort of modification for other molds, or is this just a one-time thing since Dracula is a character they had to pay for the rights to use (so best foot forward), and their own characters aren't? While it's not much of a detriment to the figures since they had decent QC on the head clips, remolded versions of TR Triggerhappy, Misfire, Slugslinger, Topspin, and Twin Twist to remove the Headmaster functionality would be greatly appreciated.
They retooled the combiner feature out of Onslaught for Ectotron and removed SS Jetfire's ability to combine with Prime for X-Spanse.
Yeah, but those were also very heavy retools who don't really resemble the figure they come from (and in the case of Ectotron, I think he was just a case of shared parts?). Whereas this is still very recognizable as Mindwipe, just with a remolded chest and head. From the little bit of the bat head you can see sticking up, I think it's the same bat head as Mindwipe uses, just colored differently.
Gotta say - I actually like this one. First Collaborative figure I want to buy, the headsculpt is really cool.
Hmmm not for me, but glad for those who are pleased. I personally will probably stick to the "famous movie vehicles" category.
