The Transformers: Dark of the Moon toyline coincides with the third film in Michael Bay's live-action film series. The line is divided into three brandings: the MechTech line for Deluxe, Voyager, Leader, Ultimate and Human Alliance class size toys; the Cyberverse subline featuring Legends Class characters, Commander Class (new price point, effectively replacing Scouts) and play sets; and Robo Power, a catch all line for various merchandise including role play.
The figures also come in 3 transformation difficulty levels, changed from the original 5 in the Generations and 2010 Transformers toylines.
Due to a combination of factors, a number of named characters from the film did not receive "mainline" toy releases, an issue noted by many frustrated fans. Examples include Deluxe Que and Soundwave never seeing a North American release (apparently an issue with retail orders), Dino not receiving a transformable toy at all until 2014 (due to lack of licensing for his vehicle mode), and only one of the three Dreads receiving a Deluxe-or-larger sized toy (likely due to Hasbro not wanting to release three identical black SUVs, even if they do turn into different-looking robots.)
