The Transformers: Age of Extinction toyline coincides with the fourth film in Michael Bay's live-action film series.
Unlike the toy lines of the previous three films, this line is divided into two distinct series:
- "Robots in Disguise", a series of simpler, more gimmicky toys aimed towards younger children. Included in this series are the non-transforming Titan Heroes figures.
- An Age of Extinction-specific version of Generations, featuring more complex and movie-accurate toys aimed towards older children and adult collectors. In Japan, toys from this line were sold under the "Movie Advanced" subtitle.
Toys
Robots in Disguise
One-Step Changers
One-Step Changers are smaller figures which, as the name suggests, can be transformed either direction in one step, more or less. Exactly how the transformation is accomplished varies from figure, ranging from Activator-style spring loading to complete autotransformation.
Wave 1
Wave 2
Future waves
Mega One-Step
Electronic Chomp & Stomp
Power Battlers
Spiritual successors to the Fast Action Battlers, Power Battlers are Deluxe-sized figures with basic transformations and a 'battling' action feature in robot mode.
Wave 1
- Bumblebee (Power Punch!)
- Crosshairs (Power Punch!)
- Autobot Hound (Quick Draw!)
- Dinobot Strafe (Spin Attack!)
Wave 2
- Autobot Drift
- Optimus Prime (Blade Strike!)
- Dinobot Scorn
Future waves
Dino Sparkers
Dino Sparkers each include non-transforming static figures of a Dinobot and a rider. The Dinobot is cast in translucent plastic, and features a pull-back-and-go motor with a sparking gimmick.
- Optimus Prime with Grimlock
- Bumblebee with Dinobot Strafe
- Autobot Drift with Dinobot Slug
Future waves
- Lockdown with ???
Flip & Change/Smash & Change
This assortment of larger figures focuses, like One-Step Changers, on simple transformations. All but the first wave's Optimus Prime use a form of autotransformation that has one flip the figure over itself.
Wave 1
- Grimlock (Flip)
- Optimus Prime (Smash)
Wave 2
- Bumblebee (Flip)
Future waves
Titan Heroes
Like previous toys under the 'Titan' branding, Titan Heroes are 12 inch tall action figures with a basic five points of articulation.
Titan Guardians
Much like the Titan Hero assortment, but with a larger 16 inch height and each including a weapon accessory.
Generations (Series M4)
With Hasbro's renewed focus on simpler toys for children, the "traditional" Deluxe, Voyager and Leader Class assortments were explicitly split off under the Generations banner, receiving a much reduced focus in marketing and even being entirely store exclusive in the United Kingdom.
