    i feel like they could pull this of as twin twist if his robot mode hias blue in his torso. that way top spin and twin twist can look g1 standing/parked next to each other on my shelf.

    cool, if it's got a new head, i may pick him up as Twin Twist (unless he is actually Twin Twist already) but i'd like to see how the robot colors line up first.

    by the robot mode I would say it's ARMOR topspin, mainly 'cause of the black and red type armor he has, but let's wait confirmation
    :p

    Found it on Facebook actually. It was on someone's album.

    But Facebook isn't a valid source for news so I didn't bother.

    I have to admit, I'm not thrilled to see that dull grey plastic pulled out again for another car... but the robot mode does look nice.

    Mayyyyyyybe.....Hasbro space out new molds, and throw in repaints in between because retailers won't pay more than price x per unit in a time when production costs are spiraling.

    Unless you want to pay more for new toys?

    NO! I thought Armor Topspin was going to be the normal NASCAR vehicle! Hasbro, make up your mind! Give us one size class where they are either normal or Stealth Force!

    Cyberverse
    Roadbuster - Stealth Force
    Topspin - Normal
    Leadfoot - Stealth Force

    Deluxe
    Roadbuster - Normal
    Topspin - Stealth Force
    Leadfoot - N/A

    Human Alliance
    Roadbuster - Stealth Force
    Topspin - N/A
    Leadfoot - Normal

    COME ON!

    That color scheme is extremely unappealing.

    I'm holding out for the Human Alliance versions of Topspin and Leadfoot. Do we have any release dates on those?

    I'll have to admit...part of me actually may like this repaint more than I do the original. It looks really good.

    Now what's Leadfoot's repaint going to be? A Walmart-themed car? :p

    Seems Hasbro will do anything these days to sell characters that were hardly in the movie and have little to do with anything to boot.
