This article does not establish notability. The reception link, even if it was active, looks like it's probably just trivial fluff.

Merge to
List of Autobots. I'll go along with a merge. Topspin was apparently in several forms of media, including the films, but the coverage seems limited to fan sites,
listicles, and price guides.

Redirect to
List of Autobots, per NinjaRobotPirate. I agree that the coverage on the character is mostly from unreliable sources, and the bit that is not is trivial, at best. Thus, merging wouldn't be very appropriate, as we would only be able to merge non-sourced information. The List of Autobots seems like an appropriate target list, as the various incarnations of the character are all included in that list, making it a simple place for this page to redirect to.

Actually the
List of Autobots is a horrible choice for merging, and should be the last choice. There are CLEARLY pages with more detailed informaiton on Topspin on wikipedia that that one, which is merely a list of names. Please see the several suggestions I made above.

Merge as above. I'm not convinced that we need a disambiguation page.

There already is a disambig page, here:
Topspin_(disambiguation), we just add an extra line to that. I would say simply redirect Topspin (Transformers) to that disambig page, then on that page you provide links to the three pages I listed above which contain information on the three different Topspin characters.

Delete and Redirect instead as we've established as it is that all of these characters are not specifically notable for their own article, and there's nothing else to suggest otherwise better for an encyclopedia, hence delete.
