    Default Review - TF2 ROTF Mindwipe



    Review - ROTF Mindwipe
    Series - Hasbro TF2 Revenge of the Fallen
    Size - Voyager
    New/remould/redeco - New
    Wave -
    Released here - Soon
    Approximate Retail Price - Voyager class price point
    Approximate Size -
    Allegiance - Decepticons
    Alt-mode - Stealth Fighter Jet
    Main Features/Gimmicks - Mech Alive (extending micro-blades on wings and flip down knives), can combine with Scout Class Skystalker
    Main Colours - Dark grey and red
    Main Accessories - None removable
    My Difficulty rating (out of 5) - 3
    Stability - Very good in both modes
    Poseability/articulation - Very good
    Playability - Nice transformation. Quite playable in robot mode.
    My Thoughts - Very good looking vehicle mode. Robot parts are exposed underneath but you can hardly tell buy looking from the side. Good looking bat-like robot. Poseability is decent. Recommended.
    Overall Recommendation Rating (out of 10) - 8 (Buy it)

    I got mine from eBay along with Arcee, Ratchet and other toys to save on shipping.

    He can be put in some nice ninja poses. I'll take more pics later.

    That looks rather nice actualy. i wont pay the big bucks for him, but if i see him on sale I might have to get him. i do love the abundance of jet alt mode TF"S the ROTF line has spawned.

    I got Mindwipe on Saturday and i think it's fantastic
    he has decent poseability and can stand quite well and he looks really cool
    before i bought him i had to ask a friend if they were ok with me buying it since they also wanted mindwipe, he was busy looking at gundam models at the time so he just siad he didnt care, we get back to my place later that day and open the stuff we bought and when it came to opening mindwipe every few seconds my friend would say things like "ok i'm starting to care" "im starting to care more" "I really want mindwipe" "he's so cool, i want him!"
    haha ... uhh so yeah mindwipe is cool buy it definatly

    I don't like how the knives can't be put away or repositioned upright. Otherwise it's a neat toy. I like the automorphmech alive gimmick on the wings - simple yet elegant. I also like the overall sculpting, particularly on the head (for which the box art and pictures don't quite do it enough justice).

    I got him from Minotaur in Melbourne last week for $60 (imported from America) but now most Kmarts have begun stocking Mindwipe for $50, saw them at kmart northland today

    So does he actualy have any sort of interconectivity with Sky Stalker, who is also quite sinister and bat like.
