Dr. Mindbender's character is far more popular than any of his figures would suggest. The original version looked like a circus strongman. This 1993 version features a solid sculpt. But, the colors are bright and really don't match with the mold. But, the good Dr.'s popularity prevails and he remains a top tier Cobra character.
Because of this, the 1993 figure is far more popular in Joe content than I would ever have guessed. There's tons of photos and write ups available on the figure. So, scroll through and check out all the great work that's been done with the 1993 Dr. Mindbender.

I think this ver. is popular because he is wearing a shirt. If i was a prisoner in V1's lab i would immediately think some BDSM stuff was about to go down.
ReplyDeleteYeah, the creepy sadist look was the intent the original "Interrogator" design before he was toned down to Master of Mind Control Dr. Brainwave...er...Mindbender.
DeleteThis one is a 90s classic. But I really wish Hasbro would do us a solid and re-release these figures in alternate repaints. A black and gold version, Iron Grenadiers, anything... Bring on better 3D printing.
