It's been quiet on the Earthrise front ever since the line was launched all at once. Well, we are now in the year's second quarter and wave 2 is rolling out. Thanks to TF fans Nicholas, we now know that the wave 2 deluxes are out in the US. Optimus Prime and Shockwave were fund at a Walmart in the East Coast, the sighting was posted on the Botposing Facebook page along with an in hand image from Darren. Unlike wave 1, these are not fully new molds. Optimus Prime is a partial of Cyberverse Optimus while Shockwave is a straight redeco. Luckily though, Shockwave is not essential for the build a figure since he comes with an alternate robot arm.

A shame we’re not getting a screen accurate Shockwave, his design in the show is so sleek and fits his character perfectly.

I'm hoping for a Warrior class figure to make up for this.

Got my Steve Thrash from Amazon Monday, he's pretty neat for a Warrior. Sure he lacks some articulation points (bicep and thigh swivels mainly) and his bike mode isn't perfect (his arm placement could be better in bike mode), but he sure is fun! He has really stiff joints, a slight ratchet in the knees, a clever transformation and the sidecar weapon mode is really cool, like I'm surprised this is the figure they chose to pull this gem out for. Colors and sculpt are top notch, too. This figure is just a few points of articulation away from being a Deluxe and I like him a lot more than Legacy Arcee et al for sure.

I was impressed with everything you mentioned too, especially the tight joints. He's good enough that I don't think they're planning to redo him in Deluxe, and though I haven't posed them together yet, I think he'll be a great complement to Twitch.

I too got my Thrash in as well. I tell you what, he is pretty neat. I enjoy him. His bike mode is pretty sweet too. He makes a good companion to Twitch.

Now, bring on the next 3 siblings!

This is a good day for fans who want to see new toys. We have our very first look at the upcoming deluxe Grimlock from Transformers Earthspark. This toys is based on the Cyberverse deluxe toy but with new tooling in most areas and a different design to make him look more like in the show. And he is needed to complete the BAF. Now, the only deluxe left to be seen is Nightshade. Let us know what you think of Grimlock.

Re: Earthspark Wave 2 Deluxes Found in US (2160780)
Posted by Bumblevivisector on May 5th, 2023 @ 5:58pm CDT

Since the BAF component is Mandroid's human leg, the pic of Grimlock next to it makes it look like he went berserk and ate most of the show's primary antagonist.

Good looking figure, looks better than the Cyberverse version which was already a good figure in itself. This is the type of upgrade that Shockwave should have gotten.

Wave 2 of the Earthspark toyline is getting a haphazard release, with different classes being made available at different times in different places. So fans have had access to this Megatron and Thrash for a good while, getting them online, and this past week we've been getting reports of them being found at brick and mortar stores. They have been found in several states, like Ohio and Maryland.

We have reviews below to see if they these are up your alley.

chuckdawg1999 wrote:Finally, Earthspark Megatron is here to complete the wave 01 Warrior Class figures from the Earthspark line. I have to say that this figure is just as good if not a little better than the Deluxe Class version of Megatron. Transformation is simple and the weapon gimmick doesn't interfere with the figure at all. There's a surprisingly large amount of articulation, including waist swivel and ankle pivot. I highly recommend this version of Megatron especially if you're passing on the Deluxe Class version.

chuckdawg1999 wrote:Of all the Warrior Class figures I've looked at for the Earthspark collection, Terran Thrash stands out as the best. The transformation process is seamless and unlike any other motorcycle transformation, I've seen before. Similar to the other Warrior Class toys, the weapon feature does not obstruct the robot's movements and enhances the overall experience of the toy. If you are considering purchasing just one Warrior Class figure from Earthspark, Thrash should be your top choice.

Thrash and Megatron are both good figures, I enjoy both a lot.

Grimlock looks good, they did a good job with the retool there. Glad they didn't go the Shockwave route there.

Now, bring on the other 3 Terrans!

Took Prime and Thrash to work this week, they are both pretty good toys. I appreciate how good Thrash is for a warrior figure, they did him good. Almost on par with RiD2015 Warriors

It's been a while since we got many Earthrise reveals. Well, toy sites in France and Portugal have uploaded new stock images for upcoming toys within the line. Below you will see images for Flip and Change Megatron, Flip and Change Twitch, Warrior Jawbreaker (which turns into a Stygimoloch), Warrior Starscream (which is a redeco of the Cyberverse toy), Deluxe Grimlock and Deluxe Nightshade. It's a real pity we do not have images of Nightshade in alt mode since this is a toy several fans were curious of due to its atypical design, that being a robotic owl. Hopefully we will see it soon. If the owl head resides in it's chest, the toy might be using a transformation similar to Kingdom Airazor.

Let us know what you think!

And then Jawbreaker vied for the position of most controversial Terran by spoiling the show's reveal of his alt.

Oh well, we needed a new bonehead-family Dino alt that wasn't remolded from a Raptor, though I have my fingers crossed that he briefly considers a shark and a hyena first.

Wasn't it spoiled a month or so ago in a news article, that they revealed Jawbreaker's alt in an Earthrise promo?

Found Jawbreaker (and Starscream) at Walmart tonight. He's pretty simple, but has an effective transformation. I like the way everything tucks away leaving him kibble free. Definitely a worthwhile Warrior class figure.

While Jawbkreaer has yet to choose his alt mode in the Transformers Earthspark show, his spoilerific toy is being found in the US. Fellow Seibertronian Emerje found it in a Walmart in Maine. Starscream is part of the same wave of warrior class toys.

Thanks Chuckdawg for the review. I wonder how he matches up in CHUG scale. If the height works, I'll get it and repaint it into Maccadam.

I've always wondered when will Hasbro do the Primus' Thirteen in CHUG scale/style. God I'd be extremely happy to have a shelf section with only the First Primes.

The rumored Vector Prime got me hyped. But I doubt that'll be the first of the 13 any time soon... UNLESS the new Skybound TF comics come out with the reveals of all of them. That storyline will be EPIC if it becomes reality.

He's a fun little figure, I keep picking him up off my desk to mess around with. He can even do a decent DJD Tesarus impersonation if you pop out the dino arms in bot mode.

As for height, he's "short Deluxe" (yes, I know he's a Warrior), I'm guessing about the same as Earthrise Cliffjumper. The smallest Deluxe I have on my desk right now is Bumblebee Movie Cybertronian Arcee and she's taller than him.
