The box looks fantastic takes me right back to 1987
It’s really nice! I’d love to see this make a return for the mainline
So happy to find this guy today at a fleamarket while visiting my hometown for $25 still in package from the titans return line. As soon as you showed the loose head I knew which one I should go for. Thanks for helping us all out with these reviews!
I like how the actual bat wings fold into the legs and the toon batwings show in robot mode..pretty cool feature! I might get him; my best friend had him back in 87
He is very nicely done IMO.
I would get this if it was the og toy oof. Nice looking toy tho. Neat review
Thank you very much!!
Wow, I would *not* have gotten this guy if it was a G1 reissue.
Absolutely, this is just a dumb gimmick IMO
@@PrimeVsPrime Hey when are you going to review Hades Megatron. That figure looks dope.
Thanks!!
I don't quite get it, why the G1 packaging? Is that supposed to be a "gimmick"?
Yeah it’s a bit odd lol. I would’ve liked the OG toys too
They are trying to trick us!
Tugging on nostalgia. Own the JP version aka Legends. Fig would have been awesome if the wing materials were changed.
@@PrimeVsPrime the power readout.
@@PrimeVsPrime Besnik to PrimevsPrime, do you copy over?
very tempting to re-purchase these TR Headmasters. i actually sold off all my headmasters both hasbro and takara tomy versions ages ago and i’m not sure i want to dip back into this hole...
well done as always bro 👍🏻😀
Man just imagine having this in 1987
Imagine being born in the 80s 😍🤩
@@PrimeVsPrime oh now your talking
@@PrimeVsPrime my dad was. He introduced me to transformers :D THE ORIGINAL 80's transformers and I'm so glad! I have the four seasons on DVD along with the movie :D
@@BurntTM yea cause the 80’s toys are so PRECIOUS OH so so precious
@@lordbrickmasterproductions3531 yeah my dad a few years ago got me G1 Reissue devastator, that was at 12 years old. I still love it to this day I'm 14 at the moment going on 15 with my love for transformers. ESPECIALLY G1!
Love the review!
I slept on Titans (like PvP) and I can’t wait to find these. I was introduced to the character from ROTF (still own it 😜) and have been intrigued ever since!
Haha literally me too!
Used to have this, years ago; probably passed onto the next generation like a lot of old toys were.
Nice review! Keep up the hard work.
THAT'S A NEW BAT HEAD!!!! The original TR version had more of an organic head and wings, but the new head and wings are new molds I swear take a good look!!!
Nice Review! Glad that we are getting the Takara Versions of these figures in the rest of the world now.
Thank you! & me too!
I love how the cockpit door on the bat stomach is sculpted to look like a coffin. So vampire-like!
Haha ikr?! Very fun figure overall
I really hope apeface and snapdragon get this treatment down the road
I missed out on the TR Mindwipe, so I'll definitely get him
Finally with the this last lockdown event is over here at Walmart in Ancaster I managed to get a few of the headmasters toys
Nice review and this is a definite Titans return throwback nostalgia feel
Thank you! & indeed!
The phrase "Titans returns throwback nostalgia" sent me 15 years into the future.☠
Wut
@@nannamatt0844 that line is like 4 years. Having nostalgia for has me made me lose track of this timeline.
I really like the titans return headmaster mold.
They’re very good!
@@PrimeVsPrime I just bought HARDHEAD two days ago 😁.
I have only three of them including wolfwire and skullsmasher.
Love this..it completes the circle for us geewunners.
So it's the "Netflix" line for titans returns season 4 g1 huh
Haha yes basically lol
Heres a fun way to store the weapons in bat mode. Plug the gun onto the outside of the claw cannon, then slide it onto the back, between the robot mode wings. Take the peg and push it into the lower gap on the back of the bat head, its soft rubbery plastic and will let it slide in, the friction will hold it in place. I can't say if it could cause damage in the long run, so do at your own risk, but it does look really good on it, and weapon storage, yay!
I’m going to have to pick some of these up, I started collecting transformers at the very end of Titans return
i just got one and I wish the bat head had a port on the back as the claw gun makes a good jet pack, luckily the space in the back of the head is big enough the make it work, but I wish it could be more secure
Awesome review man! Looks like a great figure
Thanks so much!
@@PrimeVsPrime No problem!
Imagine going back in time with this in hand.
It would be like going back with the IPhone 😍
Primevsprime can you do chrome dome next? These figures are actually pretty cool and I’m excited to get chrome dome
Yes :)
OMGGGG thanks for responding and fulfilling my request :) happy holidays :)
@@PrimeVsPrime can you do triggerhappy , misfire , slugslinger?
Cool stuff
Between the titan returns and this, which one would you call the superior ver.?
Love all your reviews, thanks. I expect to purchase one of these headmasters. Which one would you choose in the first place?
That box is awesome!
No way I want these so bad, The G1 packaging is like crack to me! I’ve got the originals, the boxes are so big and the figures were so bad and blocky lol
My Titan Returns copy of Mindwipe is still very tight in every joint. But I do missed Wolfwire, so I'm probably going to buy Wolfwire.
Every G1 classics needs to be in vintage G1 style box/pkg
I agree! I think it looks awesome. I wouldn’t mind this being the standard box design for even the mainline
Nice Reissue of this toy! Fantastic 👍👍👍
Thanks!!!
I would buy this if I find it have a good time and may we get the ones we want from these rare exclusive figures that they have made lately
Great review PrimeVsPrime!!!!! :D I'd get this if I did not have the Titans Return Mindwipe figure. :P Keep on being amazing, Double Thumbs Up. ;D
Thanks so much!
@@PrimeVsPrime You're welcome. :D
Love the look of them i should by one for christmas this year but im from the philippines anyways nice figure
just got him today from walmart. it looks alot better than the original mass release. i have a QC issue with him. he has two right feet lol so its time to get a hold of Hasbro. good review.
Cool!
I just bought this yesterday in New Zealand....
Imma try looking for this guy.
This is a figure I was a little disappointed about missing the first time around, but now I'm worried about how expensive these will be. The past G1 box reissues have been Wal-Mart exclusives here in Canada which means you won't be able to get em cheaper through TRU sales, and a $40 deluxe is hard to justify.
Awesome
Just once I’d like to get a Just Transform it video of a Headmaster I get.
It was just his I got mine yesterday and it was flawless
I dont understand, is this a reissue? or a new mold entirely?
This thang is heIIa fawking cool...🤘🏼💯✔
If your wondering about these figures, they are supposed to be toy accurate figures, instead of comic or show accurate like the Titans Return version. The Headmasters will be the Takara mold they did more toy accurate figure when they released them in their markets. So basically, they are light recolours of the Takara figures to be more toy accurate compared to the original TR figures
Ah thanks for the insight! :)
I had the blue and yellow car and loved that thing. Not even sure what his name is, but I hope he gets a reissue.
Punch-Counterpunch?
Hot shot?
I have all of the TakTom versions of these Headmasters....but the G1 retro packaging will be getting me to re-buy them all!
PrimeVsPrime,do you think we will be getting more 86 Studio Series Autobots/Deceptions?
Yes :)
How much bigger are these figures than the WFC line? I’ve heard they scale pretty close but I didn’t know how bad they stand out.
Technically these are the same size as the old Titans return and takara legends versions before they unified all the scales. These and the rest of the headmasters are deluxe class and in the new WFC scale they should all be voyagers. Here’s to hoping they remake these someday
i think i like the over all look of the original release. The head sculpt looks alot better unless they are going to an original headmaster look. the only thing i think this figure does better than the original is the inside of the bat wings in bat mode. looks alot better.
Did they reissue Grotesque? He was very hard to find before
Would've wished for s better leg Transformation as it looks kinda fiddly but is a very good looking fig
Nice
Hey PrimeVsPrime, you can turn the Titan's head 180 degrees for the robot mode, the head will connect better that way! :)
Hey! Thanks for the tip, but unfortunately it’s the ball joint itself that is loose :(
Was on the fence about these reissues since I have the TR and LG ones but the G1 style packaging definitely looks great. Ugh. So what's the retail price on these? I'm sure they are at least $20-$25, right?
I think it’s more $30 but not 100% certain
@@PrimeVsPrime Ok. That would be on par with the prices for the LG versions when they were released. I think the TR ones were retailing for $15.
i hope they do one of the jump starter dude..i need him so i can complete the set.
Sadly he was not a G1 headmaster, so it is unlikely
Hope to find mine here in Hamilton Ontario Canada
VERY COOL 😎 🔥😈🔥
Yes man
I totally missed out on the headmasters, and this beats trying to get them through ebay
Exactly my thinking too!
Every Titans Return Deluxe has a base mode. I learned this when I realized TR Highbrow’s chest folds down and is obviously meant for his TR to stand on. Perceptor has a great base mode too. It’s really fun to figure them out.
I hope the wings are more durable
They feel very durable!
Robot mode is nice and love that retro box but ugh, that bat head. Would have liked a more G1 style robotic looking bat head on this version. Think I'll stick with Mechfanstoys 'inspiration bat' mindwipe.
I need this...
nice bro
Really wish you could have done a comparison with the Titans Return version.
I don’t own any of them I’m afraid
I own a titan’s return out of the box, a titan’s return in box and this reissue in box.🤘
Cool
Just for the box~
I might get chrome dome
Mines head is ok no floppy but on a different head master does suffer from a bad neck hole so it don't fit right
Hmmmm I feel like this is a Titans return
Hmmm i wonder🤔
It is using the JP head.
It is, juat its recolored and uses some of the takara versions pieces
Neat
I wonder if they'll ever do a reissue for misfire...
I wanted to buy a Deluxe Class Huffer, but Wal-Mart didn’t have him.
I wish Hasbro would do this with the Targetmasters and Powermasters!
love the box, far superior to the modern ones.
Ugh all my transformers have been coming broken out of the box lately!!! What is that all about??? Literally spent 6 hours fixing my thrust figure.. his nosecone was broken out of box. The thing his head was tabbed in on wasn’t tabbed in on one side and the bar in front of it wasn’t tabbed in so I had to remove the cockpit and pry the nosecone enough to push them into place. What’s with hasbro and their figures being broke out of box!!!
Oh no seriously?! Especially as the figure is an exclusive
was hoping to learn wether or not the problem that caused the original TR figure to self-destruct is still present.
What was the issue on the original? Maybe I can help
I would’ve liked it if they could’ve just made new molds for these characters that are actually G1 accurate.
Yeah that maybe would’ve been a little more bang for your buck if you already had the previous ones
@@PrimeVsPrime I mean don’t get me wrong they still look amazing, but it just feels lazy to me
I'm Dec going to get him
I wish they'd rerelease this in blue for fans of the prime vs gator megatron two pack. Nyx needs a figure since the legends convobot figure is overpriced.
I had the original issue of the Mindwipe toy.
Why does every Headmaster review start with transformation of the head?
Yes the one I voted for
Hey PVP do you know when they are coming out in America?
I’m afraid I don’t :( I would’ve thought last week or this week
It might be in the US already :-)
@@nannamatt0844 .......I hope so
Imagine they re-release Fort max
Don't get me wrong. I like your vids and the transformer. But this is NOT a Reissue! Would love to have the OG Toy MIB or at least with the box. Remember seeing it in stores when I was young. Had to save my lunch money for a few months just to buy a Transformer I wanted. A lot of hungry days in school just to get 1 but it was worth even as a kid. I have collected Transformers on and off throughout the years. Hard hobby to have when your poor. Have over 100 on display and another 250+ unopen. Also having 2 copies of some figures. Either both unopened or 1 open & 1 not open. Sometimes I just can't help myself. lol. Even if it's a hard to find Transformer. As a kid Transformers really amazed me. Was like getting 2 or 3 or more toys in 1. Nothing was better than Transformers in the 80's. Not even video games which I have great memories of too. Thank you for your review. God Bless.
Well you are wrong. It's a reissue of a titans return figure.
Retro :>
Just like you said,if you already got this mold there is no need to get it again.The retro box is cool but is not enough for me to change my old TR versions plus I liked it more the toy versions than the animation deco and heads.
That’s completely understandable! Thanks for checking it out :)
Probably the only wave 1 figure I want 😂
It’s a great one too!
What if earthrise came out like this retro but painted better and upgraded quality...
That would fix some of my problems with earthrise, except that there are again almost no voyager autobots, or many good ones
My guess is that's what they'll do for the 40th anniversary in a few years. Sure, they could make all new molds, but they've put so much money and effort into these that I just can't see them going to the trouble of making brand new molds when these exist.
Mindwipe is by far my favorite Headmaster and I missed out on most of the Titans Return line so I'm definitely picking this guy up! I love the packaging but I feel like if they wanted to that, they should have reissued the original G1 figures like with others they've done lately. Nevertheless, this is by far the best figure of Mindwipe.
Ngl, While I prefer the RoTF Character more, this is a nice Design
Agree. Animated tho
@@uainjansun true, I overlooked him, Animated makes almost every underutilized character great
Just to be clear, you do think this is the best Mindwipe that we have ever gotten, do you not?
love the g1 but i do like the rotf design more ngl
What if they merge together👀
