Wouldn’t mind grabbing these one day if i ever see them for sale
Probably going to be a long time until a replacement for them is made though for people to want to let go of them

I never found Titans Return Topspin and Twin Twist. So I'm glad I grabbed these super cheap way back when from a local when I lived in Washington.

People complain when threads get necro’d; but I always find it interesting when it triggers a follow-up discussion, years later, about how the figures have held up.
These guys, for instance; how long ago were they released? Their limbs got a little floppy a few years back, but a bit of Kiki’s made them perfect again. Just a solid pair of guys. They still hold up great aesthetically, as well. I don’t remember a lot of QC problems in general and it seems like none developed.

I still love these two figures despite REALLY loving the TR figures as well.

They fit pretty well IMO.
I'll try to snap a pic or two tomorrow if I can remember unless someone else beats me to it.

How well do these scale with modern post-WFC Deluxe figures by the way?
Sorry for the bump.

Funny, I've had mine up for sale forever, and no one's bitten. Guess I'll post here that I'm selling the pair.

This will be my 3rd time owning these molds.
Now I need to keep an eye out for a decently priced Gauntlet.

One of the few times when I got the good end of the deal…purchased early in 2012…sold during highest demand a year or so ago… now they're making Takara versions!
