    That looks like it's the t30 mold, maybe a reissue is a future possibility

    Has anyone put together a list of Diaclone color Transformers that have been released since the start of the War for Cybertron toyline? I suppose most are Generations Selects figures.

    Lame, just like their Straxus. But also...

    He DO got the vent mouth! It's easiest to see in the hammer close up shots, but I am a little relieved to see it lol.

    Not really. While the show is based on the toy designs, the box art is not the same really

    Wow, I’m surprised at the negativity for Twin Twist, as I think he looks great and is only one of two figures in this line that I really like. It definitely seems like a missed opportunity to not also get Topspin here in Diaclone colors (and I personally would have been overjoyed if Topspin had been in this collection instead of the Fossilizers). On the other hand, the Diaclone deco for him is somewhat of a color inversion of regular Topspin and not as visually distinct as the Diaclone Twin Twist compared to regular Twin Twist, so if we only get one, Twin Twist is the one I prefer.

    Maybe we will get Topspin in a later line, maybe even in the Salt Man deco rather than Diaclone.

    I went ahead and cancelled pretty much all the Wreckers I would have double of, and just kept Twin Twist and Leadfoot. I mean we are eventually going to get a SS86 Springer and I'm interested to what they have to offer there considering SS86 Arcee.

    I\'ve already made up my mind about whether or not I\'m ordering this(the answer is yes), so I\'m gonna quickly mention the helicopter in the background of Twin Twist\'s packaging. Is that the Generations Whirl, or Earthrise Rotorstorm? Cause if it\'s the former, and they\'re gonna rerelease one of my favorite T30 figures, that\'d be great for anyone who missed out on it.

    Ooh! I LOVE that hammer more than i thought I would! Anyways, I decided to order 3 twintwists. 1 to keep as is, 1 to custom into saltman colors, and one to trade off when topspin shows up.

    In general, I wish Hasbro would release clean box art online more often.

    I'm still hoping he comes with Packrat. I don't know why, but I've always wanted those two after learning about them in the early 00s, but never wanted to pay aftermarket/fanclub prices for them.
    Yes, but it's T30 Whirl.
    It is T30 Whirl. And he doesn't have IDW legs if you rotate them at the upper thigh. You can have a straightened leg because of the double knee, and the normal heel is modeled after the ski-foot of the original, though it can't sit flush on the ground. The only major issue is that the weapon rails end up on the inside of the leg. Still, I think it was an intentional method of trying to have both leg styles.

    Pretenders being human sized has only been a thing in Masterforce (which was Japan only) and maybe one of the club stories decades after the concept was introduced. In all other fiction they're regular Transformer sized.

    Yes, that's the head the toy is based on.


    It's already being planned.
