EarthSpark

First unveiled at San Diego Comic-Con 2022, Transformers: EarthSpark is a toyline for the accompanying cartoon, primarily aimed at a younger demographic. It is largely similar to the previous Cyberverse toyline, with many toys revolving around a gimmick, as well as sharing three size classes: 1-Step Changer (now renamed to "1-Step Flip Changer"), Warrior Class, and Deluxe Class. The two new size classes, Tacticons and Spin Changers, are the smallest and largest size classes, respectively. EarthSpark also includes redecoes from the previous toyline, Cyberverse.

Toys

Tacticons

The smallest size class, the Tacticons are bite-sized toys that can transform while on your finger to "forge a connection with Transformers robots like never before."[1]

1-Step Flip Changers

Carried over from the Cyberverse 1-Step Changers, the 1-Step Flip Changers have a greater emphasis on "flipping the bot in the air."[1] Of course, this means multiple toys have the 'switchblade' transformation used since Age of Extinction.

Warrior Class

Much like Cyberverse, the Warrior Class toys are more articulated than most size classes but with a focus on an attack gimmick.

Deluxe Class

The Generations-esque Deluxe Class toys focus greater on show-accuracy, accessories, and articulation. Each toy includes a piece for a Build a Figure of Mandroid, with one swappable arm. While similar to the Cyberverse Deluxe Class, these debuted at the start of the toyline. Befitting the more collector-orientated designs, the Deluxe Class toys are available on Hasbro Pulse.

Spin Changers

The largest size class, the Spin Changers each include a human figurine that can interact with the larger robot, via a circular base or an accessory.

Notes

  • EarthSpark is the first cartoon tie-in toyline to use the plastic-free packaging first introduced in War for Cybertron: Kingdom for every toy. Each size class has an open window except for the Tacticons, which use closed boxes.
  • The deluxe class packaging features Autobot Script on the inner tray, reading "Earthspark".
