G.I. Joe Dr. Mindbender Goes Classified!
Story by Mitchell Smith
Welcome to the Outpost. Today I’m taking a look at the new G.I. Joe Classified Dr. Mindbender. This is one of my all time favorite Cobra characters and I lost my original in 1986 but soon replaced him with a clone. When I saw this one announced I was super stocked. “Arise Serpentor Arise” is one of my favorite mini series in the GI Joe franchise, so I got my hands on this figure as soon as I could.
It has taken a while to sit down and do a write up with some pics. He comes with a lot of accessories which to me I could have done without them, but they are pretty cool if you are into extra goodies. I could have lived with just the figure, that’s how much I love him. The box art is exquisite as you can see. One thing that did disappoint me was the lack of the Cobra symbol on his cape. It was so cool on the original, and it would have been so easy to put on this figure.
The accessories are cool though and over all this is still my favorite Cobra figure with a close second being Scrap Iron and the Crimson Twins which I will soon be doing a review on those figures. Who loves This Dr Mindbender? Who is holding out on this awesome figure and who has added it to your collection? Sound off with your comments below and let us know. Make sure to check back for my next review and Joe discussion.
