*"What is an Autobot? A MISERABLE LITTLE PILE OF SECRETS!"*
But enough talk. HAVE AT YOU!
Cybertron ill needs a savior such as you
STFU! Dracula is more than just castlevania you fkn geek
Give me the Matrix you BITCH !!
Ooooo I get that reference!!😂
Obviously they can easily reuse Weirdwolf for a Wolfman crossover.
omg yes
This men used all 2 of his brain cells
No way man, a remold and recolour of the WFC: Kingdom Optimus Primal would be the best for wolfman. Gorilla mode could be changed to a werewolf mode instead, with his robot mode being the "human" mode
@@SagaDraws, Wheelwolf or Mechanthrope could be good names.
Now I know the homies' got a time machine hidden somewhere!
It's available here in Australia too
I preordered this first day and scheduled to arrive in December. Sure would have been nice to have for Halloween
Autobot Belmont: "Die, monster! You don't belong in this world!"
Draculus: "It was not by my hand that I'm once again given protoform. I was called here by cybertronians who wish to pay me tribute."
A. Belmont: "Tribute"?! You steal bot's sparks and make them your slaves!"
Draculus: "Perhaps the same could be said of Allspark."
A. Belmont: "Your words are as empty as your spark! Cybertronians ill needs a savior such as you!"
Draculus: "What is a bot? A miserable little pile of energon and secrets! But enough talk! HAVE AT YOU!"
Sorry I couldn't resist writing this)
WHAT IS A BOT
A MISERABLE PILE OF SCRAP
Alt mode for a Scourge retool? Obviously a coffin!
I suppose the team at Hasbro have some restrictions on certain depictions of death.
But I'd definitely jump at the chance of a Dracula-scourge that transforms into a coffin.
Oh wow yes that’s a superb idea! But like you say may have been a restriction for Hasbro
@@PrimeVsPrime I wonder if any third party designer is listening....
Depictions of death? Dracula is the ultimate bloodsucking definition of death! surely...?
@@DicePunk I hope so. That’s a great idea.
@@MrPooPooJohn Should I leave my Doge address for all the fat royalties I get?
So, obviously, The Wolfman will be Weird Wolf/Wolf Wire. But what is your best guess for The Frankenstein monster...
But more importantly! will The Creature From The Black Lagoon get recognized in this series?
Oooo yes werewolf would be cool!
Rippersnapper would be my first guess for Gill Man.
Frankenstiens monster might need to become a vehicle
Weirdwolf? Nah they should go with the Fangry they made for that world's collide set they had at Target. At least Fangry looks the part looking like an anthropomorphic wolf
Make frankinstein a modulater.
If they used SS86 Scourge they could've redone his alt mode into a (flying) coffin.
And couldn't reengineer this mold to flip the robot head into the empty Titanmaster cockpit? But the tomb idea is pretty nice.
Unrelated but curious, what came first, the linkin park fan or the name?
That would’ve been such a cool idea! Wow!
@@angusmcnay5449 The LP-fan, but the name is a total coincidence. I think I only realized it after somebody mentioned it ^.^
Might have been subconsciously =P
@@PrimeVsPrime I know, right!
Customizers, get on to it!
Looks like a fun figure. Draculus reminds me of the Dracula from The Batman (2004) cartoon, I know both characters are based off the classic Count Dracula character.
i gotta say, at first i thought this was meh and was not interested in it at all. But looking at those initial poses you had him in and man this thing looks pretty good. I kind of regret passing on it. I'm glad they removed the headmaster gimmick. If they want to bring that gimmick back, it better be for some G.I. Joe crossovers.
Glad you liked the poses haha! That would be a cool cross over idea!
If I had to pick a pre-existing figure to be the basis for a Frankenstein's Monster inspired Transformer; I'd go with Titan's Return Overlord. I can easily see the spikes on Overlord's shoulders being replaced with gigantic Tesla coils and his fortress mode made into Dr. Frankenstein's laboratory. Unlike Draculus, I want Frenkention to retain the HeadMaster gimmick so we can have figures based on Dr. Frankenstein and his assistant Igor. I envision these two combining to form the iconic Frankenstein head.
They can use Kevin McHale (former Boston celtic) head to use as a Frankenstein mold.
This idea was way better than what we ended up getting
wait this figure remind anyone of that transformers prime episode where almost everyone on the nemesis becomes a vampire.
best episode ever
Dig through the ditches and burn through the witches. I slam in the back of my Dragula!
4:07 Sadly? Hah. Some folks actually *hated* the headmaster gimmick. What was neat is some TFW Radicons actually de-Headmastered several bots.
...this de-Headmaster didn't work so great.... He's a literal butt head in Bat form ...
Yeah. A Headmaster gimmick definitely would not work to the benefit of this figure
Mindwipe basically is an Energon Vampire anyway so they couldn't have possibly chosen a better mold to do this with. I am surprised that they did the remolding to remove the headmaster gimmick and make that a permanent attachment to the figure but they left the compartment on his chest in beast mode which is only there to store the Headmaster he no longer has. I would of thought that compartment would also be remolded to go with the new head sculpt.
My only real issue with the cape is that it should be red on one side. Kind of like how they did the bat wings where it's red on the inside. I do also kind of wish the packaging was a coffin rather than a VHS tape. I'd make for a much better display if you could actually have him in a coffin with the lid partially raised open.
I hope they make a Dr Hyde/Jekyll rendition
Edit: oh yes I forgot, maybe the sleepy hollow’s headless/pumpkin horseman
Dr Jekyll/mr. Hyde= Punch/counterpunch. Headless horsman= any Headmaster without the small robot. :-)
Who would be the Headless Horseman? That is if they don't make an all new mold
You forgot about the invisible man
As I did never get Mindwipe, I just had to get this mold. I really dig whole black & white look with red accents...
And let's be fair, what's a villain without cape?
The Retro Headmasters version of Mindwipe should still be out, shelf warming tho
I wish Hasbro would remold Triggerhappy, Slugslinger and Misfire the same way they did this guy in terms of the way the head folds in.
toy 1976 and 1980
I know this is kind of unrelated, but did you guys see the new reveals of the new 3rd party alien attack figures coming out next year. Apparently they’re releasing dotm megatron in February and the Dreads from dotm in August. The alt modes look amazingly clean, and you can’t even tell they can transform, which isn’t surprising. They actually are meant to scale with mpm and leader class movie figures as well!👌🏾
Yes I saw it and I can't wait
@@cybertroniccustomz998 hell yes, it has me very excited
They look fantastic! Really excited for them!
@@PrimeVsPrime yes, can’t wait to see what unique toys and alien attack are going to do in the future.
I did not. Thanks for the heads up!
it would be funny if someone made custom head of robot count von count purple face for this hahahaha
If there is gonna be a Frankenstein's Monster bot, there better be a homage of Lockdown lol
Once again terrific review! :D Yeah, looking back, I agree that they made the right decision of reusing the Mindwipe mold from the Return Of The Titans line as opposed to reusing the recent Scourge figure because of the bat motif. The package is very cool in terms of a VHS tape-like design (even if I feel like it was a missed opportunity to design it like Dracula’s coffin)! The only thing I think they could’ve done to make the figure even better is by keeping the Headmaster gimmick, and designing the little robot like Dracula himself since the Bat Mode’s chest resembles the famous vampire’s coffin from the original mold, that, and make the claw clip into either of arms instead of a lame peg where the weapon sticks out so far, and have said claw be able to clip into the back of the mode, and the blaster could act as the tail instead of the 2 combined weapons (like how I do with my Mindwipe figure minus the ability to connect the claw on the back besides resting it there). Otherwise, this is another fantastic crossover figure, a perfect way to start October, and hopefully we’ll get even more Transformers, and popular monster crossovers in the future! :)
Thanks so much! & yeah I agree!
The remolding on this guy is wonderful, that's a reason alone to want it.
So... Wirewolf or wingless Fangry for Wolfman?
I personally think a recoulour and a remold of the WFC: Kingdom Optimus Primal would be better, since both his mode are made to have humanoid posture and articulation. I could definetly see his gorilla mode being remolded into the werewolf mode with his robot mode being the "normal human-like" mode.
I love this guy. Always the fastest to review the latest transformers
New drinking game, drink every-time Prime said Draculas
Draculus: You don't tell Draculus what to do! Draculus forged knowing what to do!
Draculus is a really cool and Frightening Decepticon which he'll be the Main Villain of Season 3 of my Transformers Synergy series.
Paramount made some copies of the Bumblebee movie on VHS for a contest in 2019
That’s very true!
Head master with the name Igor would’ve been kinda cool lol
Indeed!
finally cybertron crosswise has an actual monster to hunt
Nice to see you have him awesome! I really like him a lot odd my legs are not as loose as yours seem but a known issue with this mold. I think he displays great with Covert Ravage and Black A! Hope we get more universal monsters!
Thank you for checking it out! Yeah it’s pretty awesome! :)
This guys really cool, hopefully we get more. I know it wont happen but a titan class godzilla cross over would be awesome
They could have made him a Headmaster and named the little guy R. M. Renfield. That would of been cool. What a missed opportunity
Definitely
To me, this looks really cool! I just hope we don't have to wait for next halloween for the next monster and so on.
Going forward I think we'll see a werewolf and a creature from the Black Lagoon, the werewolf being a retool of Weridwolf (although I'll much prefer it being a retool of RiD Steeljaw, it will express much better going from human-made vehicle to a hidden bestial form) and the creature being either a retool of Skullcruncher or one of the Seacons, more likely Skullcruncher, I doubt they'll retool such expensive action figures as the Seacons.
I just hope an eventual "Invisible man" is not part of it, a figure made out of entirely translucent plastic is not something I'm looking forward to...
Would be much cooler if they approximated Bela Lugosi's likeness for the face sculpt.
Easiest way to open it would be to cut open the left flap of the sleeve and slide the box out that way. There is a lock that you can pull hard to "break" but you risk damaging the box. Enjoy!
Haha thanks for letting me know! I was wondering how to take him out actually 🤣
Just recieved mine today love how goofy he is as well as his fabulous cape
Haha me too! Super cool!
This is cool. He gonna stalk those femmebots😁
I'd probably keep him in the box for a display, already have minewipe plus that box is beautiful
Ah that’s a cool idea! It does look great!
Tried to seize every opportunity to say “Draculus” lol. Good review, as usual!
Haha thank you! :)
Total missed opportunity not to make him a headmaster to use the coffin belly lol
Ikr?!
I absolutely love the intro. Very fitting for 🎃
Haha thanks so much!
Does anyone have a good site for new on the mash up line? I seem to always miss the pre-orders on these. I was able to order one online from target today (arriving Tuesday)
I think they should make Frankenstein as a truck
I really hope they do completely new molds for Frankenstein, Mummy, Wolfman etc
Me too! They would be some great characters!
The head actually looks more like it should be for the Wolfman
I can see that definitely!
Just picked mine up today. I went into Gamestop to pick up a game and found this guy just sitting on the bottom shelf.
I heard the mind wipe mold is great and it’s not a head master so now I actually really want this mold
I think they should of made sure the robot mode head could go into the chest, it looks silly hanging off the back of the bat mode!
A quote that came to my mind seeing this: Draculus "I want to drink your blood, I mean, energon!"
Great review! I'm coming in two years later, having just picked this up. I got one used, and must have not paid too close attention - the figure is fine, but no box or weapons. I don't like when stuff is missing, but I also think the weapons were a bit superfluous anyway. He looks great without them in both modes.
I got him and Frankenstein at the same time. I'm hoping they use Fangry for Wolfman!
My dad has got it for me for Christmas and I was VERY exited for this crossover
For the Frankenstein's Monster crossover, somehow I think of the Hulk figure from TF-Marvel crossover many years ago.
Leave a like if PrimeVsPrime did an amazing job with the Dracula voice
Haha thanks so much! :)
@@PrimeVsPrime anytime!
Happy Halloween in advance
i remember when this figure first got announced and the leaks for it said it was gonna be a remold of mindwipe for some reason in my head it was gonna be ROTF mindwipe idk why
Great review!
I'm definitely adding it to my collection soon I love the character of dracula so this is an easy yes for me it has taken me a while to learn about this figure though
Regular mindwipe apparently has issues with soft / rubber plastic on his wings that damage the wing joints over time (or something like that). Any idea if Draculus has the same?
He does have rubbery wings but hopefully they won’t break
Theres honestly so many interisting directions with this "monster" line
theres Werewolf and Frankenstein of course, and something like The thing, The Mummy or perhaps the Invisble Man (although i presume thats very unlikely) but also something a little weirder like Phantom Of The Opera
what do you personally want to see in this crossover line?
I wonder who they'll use as the basis for CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON ?
It's a shame all these movie crossover figs are licensed, it'd be cool if they could appear more in comics and shows.
Ikr?! Hopefully one day haha
I have Mindwipe wouldve loved to see them side by side...wow...love it though.
Have you tried to reverse the top/bottom installation of the cape in bat form? I mean, if there are topside excess on the cape, why not try to install it so the excess is downside. Maybe it will look better if the excess cape is flowing down.
I shall definitely try that! Thanks for the tip!
I want to say I found a frankinstines monster at a goodwill 2 years ago
As a fan of both Transformers and Castlevania, I will be getting this !!
Good luck, it's been sold out since day one
The crossover of the century!!!!!
Haha for me the Jurassic park once is the best this year
Well, Finally we have a mold that is not a bird with a compressed robot in the chest, oh, Need more money, forget it
Draculus looks very cool!
I hope Frankenstein is a retool of Grapple into a electric company truck
this line has just made me think of something what if transformers had a lego idea's style thing where a fan made idea for a figure gets published it gets backers by the community and if it makes that amount before the expiration date hasbro can see about making it pictures or ideas would include 3D models of figure ideas one of the robot and the vehicle and one of the requirements is that it has to be based off a pre-existing mold for a figure
Frankenbot for frankenstien
now if they were head masters.
vlad for dracula
and
Victor for frankenstien
's monster
I want like a werewolf. Has like wolf beast most then go like half bot and half wolf.
That would be pretty cool!
This figure kinda represents how Dracula can shapeshifter into a bat. They should Make the cape a very thin but study material so if you fold the Cape up really tight you can fit it into the belly of the bat.
Oh yes that would’ve been awesome!
i´m just fine with retro mindwipe, he´s already got the vampire theme going on, but draculus looks pretty awesome nonetheless, and the packaging as great as well. might get it though :). i bet they make weirdwolf or cheetor into the werewolf.
Bookmarked this one and sent it to my dad as a hint for Christmas presents he looks cool.
Haha nice one!
@@PrimeVsPrime got my eyes on this the jurassic park two pack and t wrecks so I've got all three versions of that mold I bought kingdom (beast wars) megatron
Does anyone know if the gun is blast effect compatible
I have the MMC(?) Lambda headmaster version of Mindwipe in the Reformatted series, excellent figure!! It does the coffin gimmick with its own Headmaster which is super cool. You could try fitting a Lego Dracula in the chest cavity of the bat mode. Have you tried putting the cape on the bat mode 'upside-down' to give the wings a fuller longer look? I'd love to get this figure.
Bruh the blaster looks like something that would extract energon from another bot i mean vampires drink blood so... draculus should drink energon? Idk
Omg wow haha it does lol! Nice catch!
Fingers crossed for a Transformers x Devilman crossover. Probably would never happen but its possible.
The Scorge Boat mode would have served well as a flying coffin especially in the black color scheme..imo.
If they do a Frankenstein, it should be a combiner
I already have Mindwipe so I definitely didn't have any desire to pick this guy up. But if they do make Frankenstein,the Creature,or the Wolf man I'll pick them up.
Anyone noticed that his head is more like a reminiscent of Hot Rod's G1 head ??
he reminds me of one of the Decepticon leaders we see in the Hall Of Heroes in the '86 film.
Saved me money since I already have Mindwipe
Looks really cool!
Ikr?!
you can put the cape into his chest for storage?
Not that I’ve found :(
Love if they done a creature from the black lagoon with one of the sea monsters transformers got the name forgot at the moment
Oh yes! Cool idea for sure!
I love the look of this fig. I'm going to try and hunt down this one
Happy hunting!
It's either a VHS as a 'dead media' joke or because that was the only way to enjoy these classics for the longest time.
Scourge would have worked if the altmode were remolded as a coffin.
A coffin would’ve been so cool but I doubt they would’ve done it because it’s hasbro haha
Scourge's altmode instead of Mindwipe as Dracula? A coffin, not even to think about it, he already wraps around the wings, you just have to square them up.
For the Canadian price, they can shove that toy deep where the sun don't shine.
Elsewhere in Canada?
Haha fair enough!
@@PrimeVsPrime Ready to have your mind blown? Dracula is the SAME PRICE as the Kingdom Agent Ravage set at E.B. Games!
The head looks like a remolded Hot Rod noggin. 😉
It makes you wonder who they going to use for Frankenstein's monster the creature From the Black Lagoon The Mummy any ideas
Perhaps Megatron for Frankenstein
@@PrimeVsPrime wish your figures box sealed in plastic
While the coffin mode is good option, but I prefer if he had a triple changing mold rather than reuse 86 scourge or anything, like transforming from bat into wolf/dog like in the movie and the novel, while keeping the headmaster gimmick and naming the headmaster "Lugosi" and giving him a battlemaster/targetmaster named "Renfield"
I do enjoy that mindwipe transformation
It’s fun for sure!
The coffin is a cool idea, but Dracula turns into a bat, not a coffin - I know splitting hairs. I got this figure from a friend, and it is fantastic - for a Deluxe. I think they could have done away with the cape and made it a few dollars cheaper, though.
In bat mode, I believe the cape doesn't fit right because I think you have it upside down! But other than that, pretty awesome figure! 💯
They really missed their opportunity to make him transform into a Chevy Impala and name him Vlad the Impala.
this is cool unexpected I like it and the Jurassic Park set I want that but don't know if I will be able to get it
Cool vid
Very fitting for the start of October, the countdown to the big day officially begins 🎃🧛🏼♂️
Haha ikr?! Perfect time!
