Takara Tomy Earthspark Toyline Revealed with Several Deco Changes

Yeah it will so epic once this lame @$$ line is finally gone....freeing up some shelf space of course for something much better hopefully! .......

This is a dilemma for me. I want the show-accurate decos that Takara's Deluxes have, but I also want the Mandroid build-a-figure that Hasbro's Deluxes have. Couldn't Takara figure out a way to release Mandroid on his own?

I'm sure they will

I dunno, there's been a lot of figures Hasbro released that Takara didn't.

When it ends they're just going to replace it with another line like this one replaced Cyberverse and that replaced RID.

Yes this is true. ....

It's been a while since I bought Japanese TFs. Where's the best place to get them these days? I'm in the UK though.

While the first wave of the Earthspark line was released almost all at once, the remainder of the line has been appearing sporadically on shelves and online. So while some may already have the toys below, they are the latest releases and we wanted to show you some reviews in case those who don't have them yet were curious. Below you will see three reviews from fellow Seibertronian Chuckdawg for Flip Changers Megatron, Twitch and Deluxe Grimlock. For Grimlock, he is currently available on Amazon if you want to get him.

No articulation, all gimmicks. Terran Twitch looks really good and is close to the show model. As I always say do NOT throw these around as they can break, I'm especially concerned about the Vtol wings on Twitch.

chuckdawg1999 wrote:Well, this figure almost fooled me. I first thought this was an all-new mold with so many new parts. Grimlock, is a heavy retool of the Cyberverse Deluxe figure, almost every exposed piece is retooled from that mold. While my copy is a bit loose in the hips, I find this to be the better of the two releases.

Grimlock looks very nice, really like that twist on his transformation.

If there is another wave. Cyberverse only did the one BAF of Maccadam, and all Deluxe waves after those with his parts nixed the BAF incentive entirely.

I was saying it sarcastically but also wishfully, i don't expect another BAF or to see mandroid in that form in toy form

As anyone still looking for some of 2015's RID toys on e-bay can attest, the original figure of a new Transformers character can become very expensive as the demand grows year after year. Hence why many fans have been looking forward to getting their hands on the Earthspark Nightshade figure, along with the need to simply own a toy of a character they like. Hasbro has finally officially revealed the final wave of Earthsaprk deluxes for this year, with preorders for Nightshade available on Pulse and Amazon. We have links below. You can also tempt your luck to find them at retail with them starting to appear at Walmart stores in the US.

In other Earthspark news, Hasbro revealed some new toys at the Toy Fair in New York. These are the Cyber Combiners which are similar to the crash combiners we had in previous lines. This time, it's a combination of an action figure of the human characters in an exo suit, combined with a transforming figure of Twitch or Bumblebee. You can see the photos below.

Preorders for Nightshade:
