Mindset (TF 2010)

This article is about the movieverse Autobot. For the Generation 2 Cybertronian, see Mindset (G2).

Mindset is an Autobot from the movie continuity family (via the 2010 Transformers toyline.)

What's the matter with the crowd I'm seeing?

Mindset hates change. If it was good enough nineteen hundred and eighty-four vorns ago, it's good enough now. He's a traditionalist whose main goal in the war is to prevent things from being different from how they used to be.

All that being said, you can never have too many devastating explosions.

• Mindset (Deluxe Class, 2011)
  • Accessories: 8 missiles

• Known designers: Andrew Scribner (deco artist)

Part of the fifth wave of the 2010 Reveal the Shield toyline, Mindset is a redeco and new-head retool of Hunt for the Decepticons Hailstorm, who was designed as a homage to Generation 2 Mindset. He transforms from a robot with massive rocket launchers on his shoulders into a light blue multiple rocket launcher. He comes with eight pressure-launch missiles. Each launcher also has a C joint bar on it to mount extra accessories onto.

As part of the first wave of the Reveal the Shield promotion, he sports a rubsign.

Notes

• Mindset's original reveal at BotCon 2010 showed him with a massive Autobot symbol on his launcher. This bit of deco was removed for his retail release, presumably as it would have defeated the whole symbol-rubbing thing.
