- Infernac Universe Shard (Deluxe, 2024)
- TakaraTomy name: Shard (シャード)
- TakaraTomy ID number: TL-74
- TakaraTomy release date: 2024 October 26
- Accessories: 2 turbine cannons, 4 rotor blades/swords
- Known designers: Mark Maher (Hasbro), Takio Ejima (TakaraTomy)[1]
- Released in the second wave of Legacy: United Deluxes, Shard transforms from rocky robot to a rocky helicopter.

- As an Armorizer, Shard can also disassemble into a variety of rocky chunks, forming weapons and armor to attach to other figures via 5 mm post.
- Her shin armor comes detached in box and her instructions neglect to inform you that they go on her shins, though her legs are shown with the shin armor already attached. The instructions do show the parts being removed for armor modes, however.
- Stock photography of the toy depicts a non-final color scheme lacking the bluish teal sections.
Notes
[edit]- Shard is inspired by the Rock Lord Solitaire.[1] Seeing as Solitaire was a blue and white diamond rather than a green and yellow helicopter, though, the inspiration would appear to have been incredibly loose.
- She was the subject of the initial pitch for the "Armorizer" gimmick as per her designer Mark Maher.[1]
- An early name for her was "Ruinatia".[2]
Foreign names
[edit]- Japanese: Shard (シャード Shādo)
