Cyberworld

First unveiled at Toy Fair 2025, the Transformers: Cyberworld toyline follows the trend of the last decade's worth of cartoon tie-in lines by primarily targeting a younger audience with simpler and easy-to-transform figures. Unlike those previous cartoon toylines, however, which tended towards each price point being its own separate uniquely-gimmicked range of figures with characters repeating across the different ranges, Cyberworld is marketed on the premise of having "cross-compatibility at every scale".[1] Evoking the play pattern of classic action-figure-and-vehicle ranges like G.I. Joe, the toyline features a standardized four-inch scale for its core figures, thus allowing all of them to use the seats, gun turrets and other interactive elements found on the line's larger playset-style toys. In something of a rarity for any toyline released after the so-called "Unicron Trilogy", the toys aren't just based on pre-existing designs from a movie or cartoon; instead, the characters were designed as toys first and foremost, then embellished for their appearances in the cartoon.[2]

Character factions are given less prominence on the line's packaging than is traditional for Transformers, with each toy instead branded first and foremost with one of the four environments found on the titular "Cyberworld": city, desert, ocean and jungle. Some characters sport atypical alternate modes to tie in with their assigned environment, and when the same character has multiple figures within the toyline, they are given a unique design for each environment.

A subline imprint by the name of Energon Surge was later revealed at Toy Fair 2026, with a line-wide focus on clear plastic and glow-in-the-dark paint applications.
