Twisted Metal (2012)Edit

Reaper is a new vehicle in Twisted Metal (2012). It is a vaguely demonic custom chopper mototcycle associated with Mr. Grimm and his fellow stunt riders.

Reaper's primary special is a high-damage chainsaw that can be thrown at opponents and has slight homing ability. However, if you tilt the left analog stick down, you'll pop a wheelie and drag the chainsaw on the ground, temporarily setting it ablaze and increasing its damage significantly. This is the most powerful weapon in the game, able to destroy most light classed vehicles in one hit (it can even score an instant kill on Juggernaut if it hits a weak spot). However, the flaming chainsaw has no homing capabilities, making it difficult to use in hectic combat situations.

The secondary special is an RPG which causes Reaper to come to a complete stop and the rider to draw a rocket propelled grenade launcher which can be manually aimed and fired. The projectile "cooks" like a remote bomb while in midair and can be detonated before it hits an enemy or obstacle.

TriviaEdit

• Reaper's special attack is tied with Death Warrant for the fastest recharge rate, but it also has the weakest armor of any vehicle.
• It has the third-highest speed in the game (90/135 mph), behind Crimson Fury (120/155 mph) and Kamikaze (110/150 mph).
• Reaper's speed is the same as Death Warrant and Roadkill. Talon shares its base top speed, but its boosting speed is slightly lower (130 mph).
• The fully-charged chainsaw special can destroy five vehicles no matter their health: Kamikaze (150 HP), Talon (120 HP), Crimson Fury (110 HP), Reaper itself (90 HP), and Warthog if hit in the weak spot (300HP).
• Only Juggernaut (assuming that a weak spot is not hit) and Iron Maiden are able to survive two direct hits from Reaper's fully-charged chainsaw special. The Brothers Grimm may share this distinction, but Reaper is unavailable for that battle.
• Reaper was originally colored red in the beta stages of TM (2012), resembling Mr. Grimm's appearance from TM2 and TM:HO.
