Top Spinner was one of the first ThunderCats action figures produced in the second series of ThunderCats toys by Al-Es. The figure was based on the original 1980s cartoon version of Top Spinner.
Standing a solid 5 inches tall, the Top Spinner figure had action features as well as poseable arms and head, thanks to 5 points of articulation.
Top Spinner was released as a member of the ThunderCats "Berserkers" sub-line which included Hammerhand, Cruncher, Top-Spinner, and Ram-Bam. All the Berserkers had a unique packaging which consisted of a backing card which was hollow in the center. The figure was placed in this cut-out section and enclosed in a clear plastic bubble from both ends. The bulky size of the Berserker figures necessitated this type of packaging.
The backing card of each Berserker featured an illustration showing the figure in action. Top Spinner's backing card featured an illustration of him spinning wildly.
Al-Es made and/or repackaged the LJN ThunderCats toys for the Italian and French markets. In France, their toys' packaging had "Cosmocats" printed on them instead of "ThunderCats".
Features[]
1. Battle-Matic Action: Top Spinner's action feature was controlled by a lever located on the figure's back. Pressing this lever would make the figure spin rapidly, knocking down any figures nearby with his spiked mace.
2. Poseable limbs and head: The Top Spinner figure had 3 points of articulation, 2 at the shoulders, and 1 at the neck. These points allowed the figure to be posed in a variety of action poses.
