He's gonna make a great Overlord.
Can't wait for Top Spin either

As part of the set of images showing the upcoming Leader Skyshadow figure, we also have a visual sighting of the Transformers Titans Return deluxe Autobot Topspin, from the back of the big bad Decepticon Phase Sixer's box. You can check out the Wrecker twin below!

Well, now we know one more that will be in Perceptor's wave. I'm guessing that Twin Twist will follow at some point. I just can't figure out if Topspin is a new mold, a heavy retool, or a mold that just shares engineering with another figure.

That transformation is quite simple though. But he looks good. I am curious to see how much of a retool Overlord will be.

We told ya, it's Sky Shadow, not Black Shadow as first announced. 
[/gloat]
*ahem*
So, Topspin eh? I'd wager he's an all-new mold, to be shared with Twintwist as a major retool. We'll see once we get a look at his Titan Master.

I'm thinking he looks like a retool of Highbrow.

I dont know why anyone thought it wouldnt be sky shadow, that was the name on the listing since day one: http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/ ... dow/36300/
Anyways about topspin, the first thing I thought of was Twinferno actually. With those weapons on his shoulders going voer his hands to look like the twin cockpits.
But I always hope its a new mold so let's see

Actually, you guys think it's reasonable to disqualify confirmed part-sharing molds from the list of potential retools? Namely:
Blurr & Chromedome
Alpha Trion & Broadside
Scourge & Highbrow
That said, I am willing retract all this, once it's confirmed that Topspin's Titan Master resembles Nightstick *hint hint*

Sky Shadow looks freakin epic!
Topspin looks very interesting. I wonder if they'll use that mold for Slugslinger.

I don't like to jump on the whole this-figure-is-a-retool assumption immediately (a trend I absolutely hate), but does Top Spin look a little like Rook to you guys? Something about the chest and also the fact he has wheels on his body near his armpits.

I think you mean Blurr and Brainstorm? Chromedome shares some similar engineering with Dead End from Combiner Wars, though not parts.

Well yes, but the only thing Blurr and Chromedome share at all are the one gun.

Blurr and Chromedome share a few minor parts, like the gun, kneepads, thighs, and most importantly, the Titan Master Stylor. In my book, they've been paired up.
Speaking of sharing parts, I thought of another suspect for Topsin. He's the jet of the two Jumpstarters, the drill tank is Twin Twist (because, you know, drills twist), so I did some quick comparing with Triggerhappy. The feet and hips share similar detailing from what I can tell, what do you guys think?

Sky Shadow looks awesome. Even if Overlord is only a minor retool I'll probably get both. Topspin looks neat but the posing is throwing the proportions off for me. Kinda reminds me of the upcoming RID Soundwave. Since SixShot is on the cross-sell can we assume that he'll be packed in sky Shadow's case?
