    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!

    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.

    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

      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

    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.

      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.
