Elita-1 was one of the Autobots who fought on Cybertron, coming to Earth by space bridge.

Elita and Optimus Prime ambushed Swindle and his brother Hardtop at a trap set up by G.H.O.S.T.. When they pursued the two, an Arachnamech ambush allowed Swindle to escape, but Hardtop was captured and put into G.H.O.S.T. custody. Later, she joined Optimus and Megatron in informing Dot Malto about the Decepticon presence in Witwicky and convincing her to work with G.H.O.S.T. in fighting a new threat. Secret Legacy, Part 1

"There's a saying about warfare. All war is fought through the shroud of belief, but take it away and you'll see only a reflection."

When Wheeljack's drones found nothing, she rolled out with Optimus and Megatron to search the town themselves. In town, she saved Robby, Mo, and the Terrans from Arachnamechs alongside Optimus. Later, she was present when Twitch and Thrash were unknowingly taken by Mandroid driving a stolen G.H.O.S.T. truck. Upon learning of the Terrans' capture, she aided in their rescue and fought mind-controlled Decepticons to save the Terrans from Mandroid's lab Secret Legacy, Part 2

Elita gave Bumblebee advice on how to get the Terrans to listen to his training, advising him to get to know them better. Moo-ving In Elita-1 would later accompany Arcee in taking Soundwave into custody at a G.H.O.S.T. facility. Decoy

Elita performed cleanup duty with Megatron at a naval yard following a battle with Mandroid's giant mech fortress, lamenting it was less fun than actual combat. She was approached by the new Terrans, Jawbreaker and Hashtag, who were interviewing other bots in an attempt to find the perfect alt-mode for Jawbreaker. Inviting Jawbreaker to partake in her workout, she sat down with the young Terran and offered some guidance to him, telling him she had her own past history of struggling to find the right alt-mode. When he lamented he didn't think vehicles suit him, she expanded his worldview when she told him that Transformers could scan more than just vehicles. Appreciating the advice, Jawbreaker promised to make sure the conversation remained private and the footage he filmed of it wouldn't get out. Outtakes

When Grimlock turned up at the Malto farm, Elita-1 had the idea that he could try to train the kids, resulting in the Dinobot taking Jawbreaker under his wing. She was later helping Hashtag with some rock punching when Grimlock and Jawbreaker turned up. The Dinobot, flashing back to his time under Mandroid's control, reverted to dino mode and went on a rampage in Witwicky, which Elita and Hashtag did their best to kerb until Jawbreaker successfully talked him down. A Stygi Situation

Elita-1 joined Optimus and other Autobots in answering Hashtag's distress call, arriving at the Malto farm to battle Croft's Ghoid soldiers. Though they were victorious, Croft activated a Mandroid-supplied device that shut down Elita and the other Autobots present. The Battle of Witwicky They were still unconscious when Mandroid arrived back from space in a new semi-robotic form. The Last Hope, Part 1 Reactivated under Mandroid's mind control, Optimus and Elita tracked Bumblebee, Twitch, and Nightshade down. Elita pursued the fugitives in an attempt to retrieve Mandroid's control spear, but was defeated when Nightshade dropped a crane on her and used the spear to drain her energon. She and Optimus were later revived when Robby and Mo used their cyber-sleeves to reverse the effects of Mandroid's energon-draining superweapon. The Last Hope, Part 2

Elita-1 took part in a diversion, luring the Decepticons to the naval yard and fighting them while a stealth team attempted to sneak into the Decepticon base and steal the Decepticons' Embershards. Aftermath Following the dissolution of G.H.O.S.T., Elita-! was putting up an Autobot insignia in the base when Hashtag almost knocked her off the scissor lift she was using. She later attempted unsuccessfully to intercept Ravage as the Decepticon escaped the base following a spying mission. Control Alt Delete

Elita-1 was stacking boxes at HQ when Twitch introduced everyone to a new Chaos Terran, Spitfire. When Spitfire challenged Twitch for a place on an Autobot mission, Elita-1 attended the Polyhex Protocol event that Megatron insisted was necessary, and at one point used her wheels to pelt the obstacle course competitors with mud. Spitfire As part of an Autobot mission to move the Cyber Slayer to a more secure location, Elita-1 and Optimus were preparing Optimus's trailer when Twitch, inhabiting Spitfire's body, arrived to warn them of the Decepticon plan to ambush the convoy. Spitfire escaped the base with the Cyber Slayer, with Optimus and Elita-1 giving chase, only to be intercepted by Soundwave, Nova Storm and Skywarp. The Imposters Hoping to secure the Decepticon stash of Embershards, the Autobots and Terrans made an assault on the Decepticon base. Despite their efforts, Starscream managed to reassemble the Emberstone and used it to deactivate those present. They were later restored to life when Robby and Mo regained the Emberstone. Witwicky, Part 2

After Prowl's arrival on Earth, Elita-1 suggested maybe he should get flight lessons from Megatron. She was infected with Hate Plague thanks to Bumblebee, and spent much of the following time fighting with Arcee until Hashtag cured everyone by hacking the base's systems to drop the temperature to freezing. Fire and Ice Elita-1 turned out for the arrival of the Quintessons on Earth and ended up having to help evacuate Witwicky when the Quintessons destroyed the Chaos Dome, unleashing a storm of chaos energy. Judgement Day, Part 1 She was present for the revival of the Chaos Terrans and the escape of Robby, Mo, Twitch and Thrash from the Quintesson ship, subsequently taking part in a diversionary battle while Mo restored Terratronus to life so that the Titan could destroy the Quintessons. Judgement Day, Part 2

"You make it so hard to want to help you, Edalyn."
  • Elita-1 (Warrior Class, 2023)
Part of the first wave of EarthSpark Warrior Class toys, Elita-1 is a simpler toy with a manually-operated gimmick which switches her right arm between a hand holding a small pistol and an arm-mounted larger rifle. She transforms into an SUV in 15 steps, and her robot mode has limited articulation (no neck, waist, or properly-located knees).


  • Elita-1 (1-Step Flip Changer, 2024)
Part of the fourth wave of EarthSpark "1-Step Flip Changers", Elita-1 is a simple toy that converts from robot to SUV and vice versa in a single step. Her alt mode can be arrived at much faster by letting her fall face-down onto a solid surface.
Unlike previous One Step Changers, Elita-1 lacks any robot mode articulation.


  • DX Elita-1 (Deluxe Series, 2024)
  • ID Number: ESD-14
  • Release date: July 27, 2024
  • Accessories: Two guns
Released in the fifth wave of TakaraTomy's EarthSpark Deluxe Series toys, this release is a redeco and minor retool of the Hasbro Warrior Class Elita-1 toy—in addition to a more-show accurate deco, her right hand is retooled to remove the weapon-swapping gimmick with a normal 5 mm port-compatible hand. Her head is also retooled to give a simple swivel articulation on the neck. To compensate for the gimmick removal, Elita-1 gains a new pair of guns as accessories, based on the larger rifle from the original Hasbro release which can be attached to her alt-mode's roof.
