Twinstrike (Prime)

This article is about the Beast Hunters Predacon. For the Bot Shot, see Twinstrike (BS).

Twinstrike is a Predacon from the Aligned continuity family.

Shockwave had hoped that giving Twinstrike an extra head would result in a higher intelligence stat. Unfortunately, it just doubled the Predacon's violent rage and seething impatience.

Though Twinstrike isn't smart or particularly good at anything, he is amazingly courageous and strong, and his Piston Hammer isn't anything to sneeze at, either.

Go ahead. Shake my hand!

Introduced as part of the "Unlease the Beasts" event, Twinstrike was one of several Terrorcons cloned by Shockwave based on ancient CNA. When they proved uncontrollable, Shockwave sent Predacons Razorclaw and Divebomb to capture them. In the end they recapture the Terrorcons and return them to Shockwave's control. For now. Players who ranked high enough at the end of the event were awarded Twinstrike Ultra Rare cards.

• Twinstrike (Cyberverse Legion, 2013)
  • Accessories: Piston Hammer/Piston Cannon

Part of the first wave of Prime: Beast Hunters Cyberverse Legion Class toys, Twinstrike transforms into a twin-headed dragon, and comes with a "Piston Hammer" which can be held as a cannon. His dragon head hands can hold the weapon via the latter's multiple 3mm posts, and he and the weapon feature numerous 3mm mounting points. His instructions neglect to mention that his feet should be rotated during transformation. Though it is not called out anywhere on the single Legion release, Twinstrike combines with four other Cyberverse Predacons to form Abominus.
