Is it just me or how come the renders look so damn good and detailed but then the final figure in full color seems to be missing something and the details drop? It's almost as if the render is 100% but the final only comes out to be 75%

Yes there was but we are still a bit away from those coming out. Probably will be fall or early 2023 reveals. I dont expect them to be shown at SDCC.
Shown below are new digital renders of the G.I. Joe Classified Dr. Mindbender figure from Hasbro. These images come via 2dsculpts who has been working on with Hasbro on the Classified line.People who attend the SDCC next week will get first crack at pre-ordering this figure with it being available for pre-order to everyone else at a later time on the HasbroPulse website.

Good question. Probably waiting on the movie.

Ha. Ive never really put much thought into it but your totally right. No shirt cape wearing scientist with a monocle. Lol. He is crazy. Crazy cool. Ha.

I forget how difficult it was to get the color-change Zartan, but that was more or less a level playing field, and I'm guessing that "three-times as many" thing isn't going to make much of a difference and that they'll likely sell 1/3 to 1/2 of their Mindbenders already at the con.I still have no doubt, however, that like with many of Hasbro's past San Diego Comic exclusives, Mindbender will be available in the main line in the near future but without the fancy packaging and extra accessories.
I'm not interested in the figure but Hasbro claims to have it after the convention. This is if you sign up for the Hasbro service of getting it ahead of time before everyone else and they will be selling whatever is left from SDCC and anything that is damaged. My guess it will sell out before anyone has a chance at really getting it after the Con...
Hasbro has confirmed that folks not attending SDCC next week will have a crack at getting Mindbender on HasbroPulse After the Convention:
Hi friends! The Hasbro press release about SDCC came out today and I've gotten quite a few messages about Dr. Mindbender being a convention exclusive.Here's my clarification:So yes, Dr. Mindbender will be an SDCC exclusive item BUT only from July 20-24. If youre at the convention, come to the Hasbro booth and you can get a code (one-time use!) to pre-order online during the convention. Hasbro is not selling any physical product at the con this year - everything is going to be online only.BUT if youre not at the convention or somehow miss getting a code, limited quantities will go up on HasbroPulse.com after SDCC is over. Legal will want me to say that its a limit of one per customer and only while supplies last.I will also tell you that were making more Dr. Mindbender figures than we made of Zartan last year. How many more? Approximately three times the amount! That's a lot of evil orthodontists to go around.As always, let me know if there's anything else that you're curious about and I may address it in my next rumor post!PS. This isn't actually GI Joe related but I am very happy that I don't have to keep the other project that I've been working on a secret anymore! Super excited to be part of the team bringing the first D&D movie-inspired toy line to life ?
