- Sea Spray transforms into a transport hovercraft, with rolling wheels underneath. The rear deck (featuring a fold-down ramp) can carry most Scout class vehicles, though it is intended to be used with Breacher. Sea Spray's turbofans can rotate and tilt at several angles, and feature little fans inside that can spin (only by manual manipulation, as there is no gimmick mechanism linked to them). Sea Spray's harpoon launchers attach on the sides of his air cushion skirt.
- In robot mode, Sea Spray's design resembles that of a scuba diver, with a breather mask and "goggles" on his head, details resembling scuba air tanks (actually part of his vehicle mode air cushion) on his back and fold-out flippers on his feet. His harpoon launchers, using 5mm posts, can be left attached to the underside of his arms as they were in vehicle mode, or placed in his hands.
Notes
- At Toy Fair 2010 and in the March 2010 answers to tfwiki.net's questions in Hasbro Q&A, Hasbro representatives were adamant that Sea Spray is the same character as Generation 1 Seaspray, being a Classics-style upgrade of the Mini Vehicle placed in the adjectiveless 2010 Transformers toyline because they felt he should be a Voyager and Generations was only Deluxes. However, since his packaging bio places him versus live-action-styled guys who seemingly operate in the live-action-style universe, that initial inspiration can probably be filed under authorial intent.
