- Twin Mill (Deluxe Class, 2025)
- ID number: 01
- Accessories: Left & right engine guns, 2 air intakes/pistols, left & right exhaust pipes, 2 exhaust Fire Blast effects
- Known designers: Brian Parrish (Hasbro), Koki Yamada and Hisashi Yuki (TakaraTomy)[1]
- Collaborative Twin Mill is a Deluxe Class figure that transforms into a new version of the 1969 Hot Wheels original-design "Twin Mill" racer, cast in a slightly-metallic blue plastic to evoke the toys' original (and now outlawed-cuz-of-lead-paint) "Spectraflame" sheen. The twin engine blocks of the car form arm-mounted guns for the robot mode, complete with flame-exhaust fire blast effects that slot onto the long exhaust pipes (and are curved so they go around Twin Mill's wider-at-the-back contours).
- Undocumented in the instructions, but depicted in the card artwork, the air intakes of the engine blocks are attached by 5 mm posts and can be held as pistols (or mounted wherever else you like that's 5 mm compatible). The exhaust pipes are also removable 5 mm-post attachments, though they also have long, low stabilizing bars at the base to keep them properly positioned on the car-chunks, which can interfere slightly with their use as hand-held weapons given the shallowness of the pegs.
- Twin Mill (Deluxe Class, 2026)
Now with extra Cajun Spice and everything nice!
- ID number: 03
- Accessories: Left & right engine guns, 2 air intakes/pistols, left & right exhaust pipes, 2 exhaust Fire Blast effects
- Twin Mill was re-released in a red deco the following year, matching the red variation of the 1969 Twin Mill car (one of seventeen colors for the model that year!). The figure retains all of the features of the original.
- This release was exclusive to Target, with limited quantity on Hasbro Pulse.
