While Springer was the hot new preorder of the day, Hasbro also revealed Twin Twist today, prematurely, on Instagram. But we got the images of the reveal below. We will update this post with the proper preorder links when we have them. There is no news or evidence that there will be a Top Spin to go with it.
Also, fans have been asking why we are not seeing the "BAF" Hammer pieces these sets come with and that is because it is not an actual "BAF". The hammer isn't an accessory you put together for a bot to hold, it's just pieces of cardboard you put together.

twin twist and topspin are great figures with a real heft to them, they are definitely worth checking out if you haven't yet

Any thoughts about what these figures are standing on? Is it a figure/set that has already come out or might this be alluding to something?

Curiously, what they're standing on is Earthrise Scorponok.Seibertron wrote:Any thoughts about what these figures are standing on? Is it a figure/set that has already come out or might this be alluding to something?

Pretty sure it is judt scorponoks tail folded up weird.
Also, if the hammer is just a piece of cardboard, they just saved me a lot of money. Looks like I can cancel and hold off on some of these now.

BTW apparently there isn't going to be a Topspin in this line, it's just Twintwist and Bulkhead left. Odd decision

Maybe Wrecker "Diaclone" Top Spin will show up in the Buzzworthy Bumblebee line instead? Or as a Generations Selects release later on? I think it's more likely than not that he'll show up sooner or later in some other line or collection.

That… makes me a lot less excited for this Twin Twist. I don’t hate the deco and I am not against diaclone characters as generic soldiers in the Autobot army, but Not having both cuts the appeal for me.
I will probably pre order though because I am a sap

That just seems kind of odd to me. There have been 2 pairs of deluxes already, 3rd pair only seems logical, and 2 Voyagers ( one revealed today and one left).
If there are 2 deluxe pairs
2 Voyagers and then
A single deluxe....that would be very disappointing.

I missed out on Springer in WFC: Siege, so I’m all over this, even if I’m not a yuge fan of the deco.

Look at the pic with the boxes. That top box is smaller than the rest.

The Wreck N Rule line is an odd duck. It uses characters that were all part of a Wreckers team at some point but many of these releases get a deco referencing something else. Today's reveal is Bulkhead, who was a wrecker in the Prime cartoon. His deco, however, references movie Hound which does have a similar alt mode in camo deco in Age of Extinction, though not as bright.
Interestingly enough, the toy comes with an extra accessory, a small hammer, which Breakdown had in the Transformers Prime show.
Here are the preorder links:

Pulse (in very limited quantities and only open to premium members): https://hasbropulse.com/products/transf ... e-bulkhead

What the heck are they doing?
I've said it in the past...repaints are the wimp's way out. The problem is that Hasbro has figured out that Transfans aren't the brightest bulbs on the Christmas tree and that they will snap up just about any repaint as long as there is a good backstory or something relating directly to G1 lore (*cough* *Seekers* *cough*). Is this line worth it? It it even really a "Wreckers" team? Eye of the beholder...but until we stop simply snapping up repaints, HasTak is going to continue to be LAZY and not really give us anything new or creative.

Further evidence that this toy should have been a G1-ified AOE/TLK Hound instead of Bulkhead.

Not really and not like it matters since live action hound is more like a live action bulkhead anyway.

Does not having bombshell and Shrapnel make it less exciting to have kickback? Does it mean they won’t make the other two? The powerdashers were spread out and were not all in one line. It took nearly a decade to get all of metroplex’s companions. It’s not the end if only twin twist is released by himself. It was a good 6+ wait to get both in titans return.

I actually kind of like this, though a head remold to give Bulkhead a big bushy beard would have really put this over the top as a live action movie Hound homage.

Slightly off topic, but people keep saying this and I just don't get it. The only things they really have in common are being fat and green. It's like saying DotM Sentinel is like a live action RID Optimus because they're both tall, red, and turn into fire trucks.

The colors definitely look better here than the original, but I can't double dip for a figure I just got and only mildly enjoy
