I think the scale between Soundwave and Blaster is pretty accurate. In the show and I believe the comics, Blaster is actually shown to be a bit taller than Soundwave.
That is NOT a Shockwave experiment... Twincast was the rebuilt Blaster from Transformers Headmasters after he and Soundwave killed each other in a duel. Blaster was rebuilt into Twincast and Soundwave was rebuilt into Soundblaster.
The colours is kinda growing on me as it's like a sporty theme you see on Adidas, Puma or Reebok etc! Granted I can easily buy Blaster for £15 over here in the UK!
In the original story from Headmasters Twincast and Sound Wave got blown up so only their heads remained. The Headmasters from planet Master were able to build new bodies for them and with those new bodies came with the new names.
Here's hoping we get a Gen Selects (or whatever they're calling it now) four pack of cassettes, featuring Eject, Rewind, Ramhorn and Steeljaw. Even better would be them remolded in solid plastic.
Fantastic review PrimeVsPrime!!! I have been waiting for years for a modern day Twincast figure, and this repaint of the Kingdom Blaster figure is beyond impressive, worth the long wait. :D Keep on being amazing.
To be honest, I have this in my list. Not only I skipped Kingdom Blaster, but I want to reunite a main scale collection of all the Lost Light crew, which means this is the perfect chance to get a Rewind
Not even upset by it not having room for 2 Cassettebots. Finally can get a version of this guy. Already got TR Leader Blaster, nice to finally get a Twincast. We need more obscure characters getting their due, less gimmick toys of the same few Core Characters.
just got him and i love it! after months of search for any cassette player Transformers, i found this. paid 40$ but definitely worth it. i also wish there was more mini-casettes though.
Twincast look amazing. I never knew that Shockwave cloning this robot 🤖 that supposed to be as Decepticon, however, unfortunately Twincast become as Autobot similar to his original counterpart, Blaster. I love the reverse transformation because this segment does help me to remember to transform my Transformers figure turn into robot mode and alt mode 😁. For Rewind, i love Rewind in Shattered Glass version. Yeah, Hasbro and Takara Tomy should be give us Steeljaw and Ramhorn 🦏, not give us another Rewind 😅. I still choose Blaster because each area on Blaster it's always painting 🎨🖌️ compared to Twincast some area is not painting, so terrible. However, i try my best to pick up this clone in near future rather than later, great video, PrimevsPrime 🤗.
idk where that Decepticon clone story comes from, but Twincast was the rebuilt form of Blaster from Transformers: The Headmasters after both he and Soundwave killed each other in battle (with Soundwave being rebuilt into Soundblaster)
In The Headmasters anime (part of the Japanese G1 cartoon continuity), Twincast was a rebuilt Blaster rather than a failed clone of Blaster, due to Blaster and Soundwave having a battle that costed their lives, causing Soundwave to be rebuilt into Soundblaster and Blaster be rebuilt into Twincast. However, he is a good figure despite his flaws.
If you’re a fan of the Japanese G1 Headmasters you will pick this up in a heartbeat if not I could see why this is a pass. I have Blaster and the Decepticon Sound Blaster so to have Twincast in the collection will be awesome.
The poses you can make are amazing, no matter how much the transformers community complains about articulation we can still, (to an extent) get some pretty incredible poses out of them that far differentiates them from regular toys. Great review as always PvP!!!
Twin cast is actually a rebuilt version of blaster after his death in the Japanese version of the G1 cartoon. Soundwave also dies in their final battle to be rebuilt into Sound Blaster. I’ll be perfectly honest I much prefer Sound Blaster being a different character, separate from Soundwave. I personally like to say that Twincaster is the brother of Blaster who looks like him but has a slightly different personality. Xx
You know me bro cassettes equal must have always for me lol. I'm enjoying this recolor but we need MORE cassettes. I only have 40 wfc sized cassettes lol good review man.
Twincast is the regenerated/repaired Blaster after his final battle with Soundwave in the Japanese Headmasters. That ended in a stalemate. Soundwave became Soundblaster, and again, Blaster became Twincast.
I’m not gonna pick this up even though it may look a bit better than blaster because I don’t really want to buy another voyager that’s just a repaint and minor remold but maybe if it’s on sale
Twincast is just Blaster upgraded. In the Headmasters anime, he and Soundwave had a battle that destroyed them both, leading to each of them being revived and upgraded/recolored.
Absolutely adore this mold for Blaster in G1 accurate it is. Missed the Kingdom release but ordered the Legacy as it's about as good an update as Blaster has ever gotten. Twincast is a really nice repaint though I know next to nothing about the Headmasters timeline. Definitely would get on a deep discount but for now I'm good with the solitary Blaster.
I've already got Blaster and love him. He's a fantastic figure. I'm not a fan of recolors (except for seekers) unless I like the character, and I have no such connection to Twincast. I do like the headsculpt, with the smirk and slight expression in the eyes. I'll pass on him though. I, like PvP and others, really do hope they release a new Soundwave. I'm not paying for that Netflix version and we deserve plastic that won't discolor so badly.
In Japanese headmaster series twincast is the reborn version of blaster after his legendary battle with soundwave. Blaster here like optimus prime had suffered heavy injuries, but in this case soundwave is blown up in pieces.
Actually twincast is from the headmaster line where soundwave and blaster pretty much kill each other ala prime and megatron then blaster get rebuild as twincast and soundwave get rebuild into soundblaster
I'll be picking this up as I have a big Headmaster shelf with Soundblaster on italready, but I think some fans would be upset if they gated access to his other cassettes behind buying an obscure redeco of Blaster that they would otherwise pass on. His other cassettes are probably better reserved for core class releases.
…Rewind isn’t red because Rewind is black. Besides, SG Rewind is already red. No point having two red cassettes. And he’s the main choice for a repaint of Eject. He’s a main beloved character in IDW’s MTMTE. Not all toys can have equal amounts of remolding. New molds will come later.
I don't get why they feel the need to recontextualize Soundblaster and Twincast as clones rather than the rebuilt forms of Soundwave and Blaster, what's to gain from that?
I just wish there's going to be SS86 leader class blaster and soundwave with having all their cassettes Or they could just sell core class blaster's cassettes like soundwave's
Shame he cant hold 2 cassettes like the original. Also would have been awesome if theyd given us steeljaw with the special sticker that revealed skorpinoks weak spot
Why would they have cast Rewind in "smokey red"? Rewind is black. If anything I wish they'd have cast Rewind and Eject in solid black and blue respectively.
Twincast and Soundblaster are the remade versions of Blaster and Soundwave after they died killing each other
But Soundblaster was released only (for now) as a Core Class
@@varonman7283Soundblaster was already released in Siege.
Thanks Mr Obvious.
@@SuperMookles 🤣🤣
He is a clone in the Dreamwave comics. In the Headmasters cartoon he's the rebuilt form of Blaster
I think the scale between Soundwave and Blaster is pretty accurate. In the show and I believe the comics, Blaster is actually shown to be a bit taller than Soundwave.
Probably because the original blaster figure was huge
i thought the same..
always felt like Blaster was taller.
Almost the same as Optimus Prime.
@@goatintuxedo2206 hell, in toy scale, blaster absolutely towers Optimus
That is NOT a Shockwave experiment... Twincast was the rebuilt Blaster from Transformers Headmasters after he and Soundwave killed each other in a duel. Blaster was rebuilt into Twincast and Soundwave was rebuilt into Soundblaster.
Actually it depends on the continuity in Headmasters he is a reborn Blaster in some of the comics Twincast IS a Shockwave experiment
He is a clone in the Dreamwave comics. In the Headmasters cartoon he's the rebuilt form of Blaster

im not a fan of Twincast's colours. but i still want to get him for Rewind.
Yup, im going to get it for rewind and sell twincast
i wish they would release a pack for the cassettes as well
Really?
@@b-retrogamer2324 yeah, so you can pare Rewind with Chromedome
Here's hoping we get a Gen Selects (or whatever they're calling it now) four pack of cassettes, featuring Eject, Rewind, Ramhorn and Steeljaw. Even better would be them remolded in solid plastic.
my rewind’s joints cracked n broke like 2 months after i got blaster, so both his arms just fall off at slight touch. I love clear plastic!!!!
@@kaboomerty1638 Clear plastic looks cool but should never be used on moving parts.
Rewind matches his original G1 colors.
Fantastic review PrimeVsPrime!!! I have been waiting for years for a modern day Twincast figure, and this repaint of the Kingdom Blaster figure is beyond impressive, worth the long wait. :D Keep on being amazing.
If they had to make up an evo fusion gimmick; I think having rewind fit in the chest compartment would of made a more plausible one
To be honest, I have this in my list. Not only I skipped Kingdom Blaster, but I want to reunite a main scale collection of all the Lost Light crew, which means this is the perfect chance to get a Rewind
Love the reverse transformation segment, helps a lot
Yes
Not even upset by it not having room for 2 Cassettebots.
Finally can get a version of this guy. Already got TR Leader Blaster, nice to finally get a Twincast.
We need more obscure characters getting their due, less gimmick toys of the same few Core Characters.
So excited for Rewind! My poor Chromedome has been so lonely.
Why wasn’t Soundblaster in the video, they were arch enemies 😭😭😭
cuz the video would have been double length.
pretty sure it was covered in another video.
Love the reverse transformations sequences. Keep it up!
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
It’s basically after heavy damaged from Soundwave now Soundblaster.
He is a clone in the Dreamwave comics. In the Headmasters cartoon he's the rebuilt form of Blaster
Love the reverse-transformation. I think that would be especially helpful on the MP-scale figures, even though that might be a hassle to film.
Already pre-ordered him. Got Kingdom Blaster and Shattered Glass Blaster, so it's only right 😁
Beautiful repaint of already a great mold
Love the reverse transformation as well. Would like it to be a regular feature
Absolutely love the reverse transformation segment you have becone my main source of transforming my own collection please keep them going
He's doing the dreamworks face
Your intros are always great
Fun fact, Soundwave is actually supposed to be about a head shorter than Blaster.
Legacy Evolution Twincast looks terrific.
just got him and i love it!
after months of search for any cassette player Transformers, i found this.
paid 40$ but definitely worth it.
i also wish there was more mini-casettes though.

Good job man can’t wait to get him👍 , do prowl next, we know you already have him because you teased him a while ago lol 😁

I hope we see blaster/twincast minions in the 86 line
I really like the new headsculpt and colors👌
Can't wait for 86 Blaster and Soundwave
I might get this figure PrimevsPrime but idk man
If you’re a fan of the Japanese G1 Headmasters you will pick this up in a heartbeat if not I could see why this is a pass. I have Blaster and the Decepticon Sound Blaster so to have Twincast in the collection will be awesome.
He’s not a Clone, he’s a rebuilt Blaster

This is absolutely incredible!
Reverse Transformation FTW!
Im gonna buy him!!
Congratulations about Transformers Legacy Voyager Class Twin Cast and Rewind Accurate Figure Toy
The "Evo-Fusion" "gimmick" for this guy is that the gun acts like an antenna that you would see on boom boxes, which is kinda neat!
As for a fourth use of the mold, I’d go with Toaster who would be a purple repaint. He’s super obscure though so check the TFWiki.
Twincast & rewind review looks like a radio boombox cassette player deck. The transformation to robot mode from boombox mode.
Found him and metalhawk at Walmart here in the USA 2 days ago … guess distribution is getting better
Yknow honestly I’m not fond of twincast but jeez I need Rewind
Twin cast is actually a rebuilt version of blaster after his death in the Japanese version of the G1 cartoon. Soundwave also dies in their final battle to be rebuilt into Sound Blaster.

“Evo-fusion” hahahaha. Ya, right 😂😂😂

Amazing recolor of a Great figure!
Twincast is the regenerated/repaired Blaster after his final battle with Soundwave in the Japanese Headmasters. That ended in a stalemate. Soundwave became Soundblaster, and again, Blaster became Twincast.
The sound you made after "EVO Fusion Capability" made me LMAO
Rewind is supposed to be colored black. That a lot like his g1 which I love. The only reason I bought twincast is to have rewind for my blaster.
Tom Jones quoting Think I'd better dance now...
I’m not gonna pick this up even though it may look a bit better than blaster because I don’t really want to buy another voyager that’s just a repaint and minor remold but maybe if it’s on sale
The blue cassette that came with blaster is actually eject. The black one is rewind
Twincast is just Blaster upgraded. In the Headmasters anime, he and Soundwave had a battle that destroyed them both, leading to each of them being revived and upgraded/recolored.
Started rewatching the Japanese Headmasters series so to see Twincast figure is awesome timing.
Absolutely adore this mold for Blaster in G1 accurate it is. Missed the Kingdom release but ordered the Legacy as it's about as good an update as Blaster has ever gotten. Twincast is a really nice repaint though I know next to nothing about the Headmasters timeline. Definitely would get on a deep discount but for now I'm good with the solitary Blaster.
BETTER THAN BLASTAR😀 in my opinion i like the blue!
Who wants a repaint of Blaster for an actual boombox version of Soundwave?
I’m sticking with the Japanese season four Headmasters for Twincast’s backstory. The Shockwave clone was a single panel cameo in a Dreamwave comic.
Man I would love an 86 version of sound wave
I've already got Blaster and love him. He's a fantastic figure. I'm not a fan of recolors (except for seekers) unless I like the character, and I have no such connection to Twincast.

I always just saw Twincast as Blaster wearing Soundwave's colors. Not to say I hate it though.
I'm getting him for Chromedome's bf .
In Japanese headmaster series twincast is the reborn version of blaster after his legendary battle with soundwave. Blaster here like optimus prime had suffered heavy injuries, but in this case soundwave is blown up in pieces.
He is also called billy
@@prithvishyamalan824 please don't remind of the English dub. It's mankinds worst atrocity
Has PrimeVsPrime never seen the Japanese Headmasters series? Twincast is Blaster reformatted after being killed by Soundwave.
Actually twincast is from the headmaster line where soundwave and blaster pretty much kill each other ala prime and megatron then blaster get rebuild as twincast and soundwave get rebuild into soundblaster
Jazz would be jammin with this guy.
Kinda peeved that they insist on clear plastic for the cassettes.
I'll be picking this up as I have a big Headmaster shelf with Soundblaster on italready, but I think some fans would be upset if they gated access to his other cassettes behind buying an obscure redeco of Blaster that they would otherwise pass on. His other cassettes are probably better reserved for core class releases.
Remember when Transformers had actual gimmicks to sell the figures. This whole Evo Fusion really blows tailpipe.
We need a mainline 86 Soundwave in my opinion. It would especially make sense because we've already gotten the 86 Rumble.
Hey Prime, do u know when the RoTB tv spot is coming out
I think you should start with alt mode and transform to robot mode.
I'd always used Blaster's gun as his antenna in boombox mode; them trying to pass that off as "Evofusion" for this one is hilariously weak sauce.
…Rewind isn’t red because Rewind is black. Besides, SG Rewind is already red. No point having two red cassettes. And he’s the main choice for a repaint of Eject. He’s a main beloved character in IDW’s MTMTE. Not all toys can have equal amounts of remolding. New molds will come later.
Personally I thought thismis what blaster would look like as a decepticon and reverse transformation section yes yes one thousand times yes
Shattered glass eject all day
Crazy thing I have all three of them 😂
I don't get why they feel the need to recontextualize Soundblaster and Twincast as clones rather than the rebuilt forms of Soundwave and Blaster, what's to gain from that?
I just wish there's going to be SS86 leader class blaster and soundwave with having all their cassettes
Or they could just sell core class blaster's cassettes like soundwave's
Shame he cant hold 2 cassettes like the original. Also would have been awesome if theyd given us steeljaw with the special sticker that revealed skorpinoks weak spot
Twincast used to be blaster
He is a clone in the Dreamwave comics. In the Headmasters cartoon he's the rebuilt form of Blaster
@@antiseize11 thats what i meant but yeah
I have all three and think they’re all great.. I don’t see why there’s so much dislike for Shattered Glass Blaster.. 🤷🏾♂️
The Shattered ass line
You forgot to answer the most important question in this review, can Blaster and SG Blaster also do that awesome Evo-Fusion gimmick??? Hahaha
I might just get Twincast for the rewind 🤷🏻
1:38 no in transformers the headmasters blaster had a brutul fight with soundwave and both died and got revived as twincast and soundblaster
Awsome figure 🔥❤🔥🐈
im only gonna get it for rewind
@PrimeVsPrime thank you for your wonderful review. Question: Does the shattered glass has the same plastic quality as Twincast?
This review is booming!
His name is Billy!
Why would they have cast Rewind in "smokey red"? Rewind is black. If anything I wish they'd have cast Rewind and Eject in solid black and blue respectively.
Sucks that they couldn't even pack any of these Blasters with the alternate head.
All they had to do was make the gun extendable like an actual antenna and that would have actually been kinda neat
