    made up of almost the exact same parts recipe as twintwist was with a few exceptions.instead of rotating rocket pods like twintwist's i opted for placing some original g1 chunks/wings on his upper shoulders and then added bigger guns to his forearms ala g1 but to the next level(i had to do it that way or else if i put those chunks on his forearms it just looked funny.i didn't make him a g1-ish styled gun because for now,he's got the arm cannons.base coated with automotive matte black enamel,then drybrushed with tamiya acrylics.clearcoat is krylon satin/matte.

    Very cool! I can't decide if I like Topspin or Twintwist better. They both look great.
