Thanks to InDemand Toys, we have our first images of the upcoming deluxe class Prowl and Thrash from the Transformers Earthspark toyline.

Thrash is a brand new mold that is based on his appearance in the show. Compared to his warrior toy, which is a good toy in and of itself, This toy is more articulated, but appears to have a less pleasing color scheme. He also comes with his shield and a small gun.

Prowl is a little weird though, as he is a repaint of the Cyberverse deluxe class Hot Rod toy. The art on his box suggests he has a very IDW look to him in the show, but the toy uses the Hot Rod mold for some odd reason. There is no retooling done, and he still comes with the flame effects. He does make for a nice little roundabout Energon Checkpoint homage though.

Check out the images below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

Thrash looks like a sidestep really, I think his warrior toy looks better color wise.

Prowl is weird, but I like it? It makes no sense, but OK. I like it.

The unintentional recreation of Checkpoint with that Prowl toy makes it one I have to get. I kind of see why that's the mold they picked when looking at the cartoon design. It would be funny if they made a Hotrod using the Prowl mold to follow this up with.

That's a nice way to put it, but I don't think trading the sidecar for more articulation was the right move. The sidecar is essential I think, that shield is a poor substitute.

Prowl is so strange. Really does look more like Prime Smokescreen. Maybe I should just make him that and stick him with the Legacy guys since he really doesn't look like ES Prowl.

To be fair, we don't really know what EarthSpark Prowl actually looks like, since he's never appeared in the show outside of a cameo appearance of his G1 counterpart's cartoon model in Alex's fantasy-sequence retelling from Episode 1 of how the Transformers' war began.

For all we know, he could very well look like a Hot Rod recolor. ;)

I'm saying that based on the box art for him which I would guess is accurate and looks nothing like Hot Rod.

There's a character model of Prowl on the box. Either way, there's an error done here. Either the toy looks nothing like the show character or the artwork used on the box doesn't.

Huh. I gotta say, and agree with others, that Thrash IS a step down. At least it looks like it so far, maybe they’ll surprise us. Instead of him, how about a warrior Hashtag?

Prowl looks cool as a Prowl repaint of Hot Rod.
As Hot Rod the mold looks cool, clean, simple and sleek.

Thrash looks nice/normal, nothing special.

Anybody already know what comes after Earthspark? I'm not fond of the style of the faces and the whole woke series big nope.

That new Grimlock does look amazing!

We need a proper bigger Hashtag. I hope she gets a deluxe, but she needs a full proper voyager. We almost need a legacy version of her in the voyager assortment.

Maybe EarthSpark will eventually get an Ultra class assortment like Cyberverse had, and then Hashtag could get an Ultra figure with a decent amount of articulation.

Would be nice of her to get the Thunderhowl treatment if you will. Hopefully with a rotating head at least

Then again, her getting an Ultra class toy would also make her tower over the other Autobot and Decepticon Deluxe and Warrior toys, when she's supposed to be the same height as Bumblebee, and both are supposed to be smaller than the other 'Bots and 'Cons.

True, but I would almost rather her scale with her siblings than with the other bots. Twitch is already really big in comparison, and I would like to let Twitch sit on Hashtags shoulder

I've said this before, Hashtag should be a Spin Changer. It's the closest thing to an Ultra class that this line has and it would suit her well enough. I'm actually surprised they've only made two of those, I thought maybe we'd get a Megatron or something at some point.

It's a higher price point, and with toylines catering only kids Hasbro tends to not do too many. We saw that with Cyberverse, the pricier classes usually only had 2 releases (and they were often just BB and Optimus).
That said, yes, a Hashtag Spin changer would work.

Great news for people looking to stock up on Christmas toys for young Transformers fans. The entire Earthspark toyline is on sale until November 1st at Toysrus in Canada. You can see the picture below for the different price points. While they have skipped several waves of the Studio Series and Legacy line, Toysrus stores have been more up to date on Earthspark than other Canadian stores, and has that line well stocked. You can see an image of how well Toysrus stores are stocked these days, which tends to happen around the holiday season (especially in movie years).
