The Transformers: Rescue Bots Academy toyline is released under Hasbro's Playskool Heroes brand, the latest of many Transformers lines to be aimed at the preschool demographic.

The line, which began in late 2018, is of course a sequel to the Transformers: Rescue Bots toyline.

Standard retail toys

Rescan

The smaller Rescan figures are held over from the original Rescue Bots toyline. Aside from Hot Shot's hovercraft and jet forms, the vehicles forms for all the recruits weren't their standard ones, often instead being slightly retooled from older Rescue Bots toys. The show-accurate designs instead debuted with larger toys, that were in a few cases downscaled to Rescan size for various boxed releases. The first few figures debuted as part of the original assortment–VTOL Hot Shot and plow Wedge featured the original packaging with the addition of an Academy logo—while both Hot Shot and Medix debuted the redesigned packaging that would go on to be used for the new assortment. The new assortment also includes re-released figures from the previous one; for simplicity, this list includes only the new toys.

Classic Heroes Team subline

2021 saw the inclusion of a new branding on some Rescue Bots Academy Rescan toys, and the size class itself was renamed to "All Star Rescan".

Wave 1 Wave 2
The following year's releases, while retaining the same assortment number, saw the rerelease of Optimus Prime and Bumblebee in new packagings that lack any Rescue Bots Academy brandings, arguably spawning a separate Classic Heroes Team toyline, which also saw the release of all-new molds and characters unrelated to Rescue Bots.

Flip Racers

Introduced during Rescue Bots, Flip Racers are simplified Bot Shot-scale figures with automatic gravity-powered transformations activated by flipping the figure up or down. So far in Academy, figures were available individually, or were included with larger playsets.
