- Hardspark is an Autobot Sparkdash from the Super-God Masterforce portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Hardspark (ハードスパーク Hādosupāku) is the heaviest of the Autobot Sparkdash. His massive bulk lets him perform devastating body blows, but hampers his vehicle-mode maneuverability. The force of his own weight creates sparks between the ground and his treads, leaving trails of fire behind him, an attack he's dubbed the "Caterpillar Fire".

- Hardspark (Sparkdash, 1988)
- ID number: C-313
- Known designers: Takashi Kunihiro (TakaraTomy)
- Sold during the Masterforce portion of the Takara Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers toyline, Hardspark is a redeco of the Sparkabot Guzzle, transforming into an ROF Challenger 1 Main Battle Tank with a slightly elevating cannon. By pushing him forward in tank mode, "cold" sparks shoot from his back end thanks to a friction-motor that also propels him forward when released.
- Bizarrely, even though his arm-treads have spaces for small wheels to assist in rolling, he doesn't actually have the wheels, which can lead to the plastic being scraped off his arms and chest by pushing him along the ground.
Notes
[edit]- The Masterforce pack-in toy catalog photo for Hardspark actually shows his Hasbro counterpart, Guzzle.
