    I'm guessing it's because it's on the same parts tree as the waist, hips & upper legs, which are also white on both toys.

    I like the cut of his jib! For some reason I really adore how his catepillar legs form shoulder pads thingies in robot mode, it really compliments his already beefy physique.

    I might be in the minority here...but I think I actually preferred the more angular, robotic face of the G1 toy over the softer features here. Still buying it...but those cheek bones will nag at me.

    I'm of the opinion that Transformer faces generally look better when they skew more robotic than organic, myself.

    The lips on the face sculpt bother me a bit, as do the lips on Top Spin, so you're definitely not alone in preferring the G1 face.

    Hahaha!!! I love that! Topspin has forks just like one. (Ok, I know you said TWINTWIST but I could how as a kid you would come to that conclusion).

    Makes perfect sense too. A Cybertronian forklift.

    I had planned to pass over Top Spin in favor of buying two more of the IDW Scavengers, but now that I've seen Twin Twist side-by-side with his brother I'm starting to change my mind. I can picture them, guns akimbo and flanking Voyager Springer... "Wreck and Rule!!!"

    I wish there had been a tiny bit more retooling, like a new chest or something. But I'm still excited for him!

    Yeah, I really hope TT will do justice for the poor titanmasters. I just don't feel like wasting my money on lazy/cheaply made toy that cost that much. I mean the titan master isn't some lousy accessory, he's figure on itself, he needs to be painted too and they done it in the first wave. I will not support Hasbro' cheapskate ways and cutting corners while keeping the price in the same range.

    I only like it when they give lips to fembots and handsome robots like Blurr. Maybe TT give them different heads?


    P.S. Shame Twintwist drills don't SWIVEL

    He doesn't need it. He works fine just the way he is with the right amount of necessary retooling.
