Elita-Infin1te
From MediaWiki
- Elita-Infin1te is an Autobot Combiner from the Power of the Primes portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
When Elita One combines with four other of her fellow Autobots, she becomes the mighty Elita-Infin1te! Or maybe four other Decepticons, or a mix, it's not really clear.
Elita One can also form Orthia by combining with a specific few of her Female Autobots.

Power of the Primes
- Elita-1 (Voyager Class, 2018)
- 4 x compatible Deluxe Class figures
- Known designers: John Warden (Hasbro), Emiliano Santalucia and Ken Christiansen (concept art)
- Power of the Primes Elita-Infin1te can ostensibly be formed by attaching any four Combiner Wars-style Deluxe Class figures to Power of the Primes Voyager Class Elita-1. As a Power of the Primes combiner, a Prime Master, Matrix core, or Enigma can be installed within Elita-Infin1te's chest, hands, or feet, such as the "Autobot Enigma" that comes packed with Elita-1.
- Elita-1's instructions depict Elita-Infin1te as formed using Sludge and Snarl as left and right arms, and Moonracer and Jazz as left and right legs, respectively. TakaraTomy stock images (shown to the right) differ slightly with Slug replacing Sludge as the left arm. Meanwhile, the lateral packaging art for Elita-1 and Moonracer/Jazz/Novastar depicts Moonracer as her left arm and Jazz as her left leg, along with (a heavily obscured) Ricochet as her right leg.
Notes
- Elita-Infin1te was verbally named by Hasbro at their New York Toy Fair 2018 panel (though this name never appeared on any printed material). By contrast, the Starscream Combiner and the Inferno Combiner had no such luck.
- Deluxe Class Novastar's packaging showing Elita Infin1te's art[1] pointed to Novastar being the out-of-frame right arm, but this was not confirmed until line-artist Robby Musso posted an uncropped view.
- The difference between Elita-Infin1te and Orthia (the former being any random combination that has Elita One as its torso whilst the latter is a combination of Elita with four specific female Autobots) mirrors the distinction between Ultra Prime and Optimus Maximus, and possibly also between Betatron and Computron.
