Animated Series[]
Spinwit first appeared in the series as a member of the Galactic Guardians, but the later episode The Galactic Guardians shows in flashback how he joined them.
In the episode "The Tornadoes of Zil", He-Man and Spinwit find a tornado-surrounded planet called Zil, whose inhabitants declare Spinwit as their champion due to a legend. They deactivate the tornadoes out of trust on Spinwit's protection. Spinwit initially lets the fame go to his head, but he gets shocked back to his senses due to an attack from Skeletor, BH and Quakke.
