This article is about the Autobot from Generations. For the Autobot from Generation 1, see Twin Twist.
Twintwist is an Autobot from the Aligned continuity family.
Calgon, take him away.

Twintwist is one of the last Transformers you'd expect to see fighting for the Autobots. He sometimes seems to be less an individual and more a metal box of seething rage. Maybe Optimus Prime is willing to give anyone a chance. Maybe Megatron has already turned him down. In any case, as much as his teammates hate having him around the base, where he is a bottomless well of antagonism, they love having him by their sides as they rush into battle, because even among the Wreckers, Twintwist is a pitiless killing machine.

He combines with several of the other Wreckers to form Ruination.
