Series Atomic

Atomic is the fourth Gormiti toy series to be released in Italy, where it followed on from Mythos and Series 2. In the UK the Atomic Series was the third series released, after Energheia and Series 2. The Atomic series represents an "evolution" of the Series 2 toy designs, supposedly after each tribe unlocks a special atomic power. In practise, the Atomic series toys were all repaints of the Series 2 molds. The Atomic series also introduced gimmicks, which would go on to be something of a series hallmark.

As the series is a repaint of Series 2, this series again featured 35 figures divided into five tribes Earth, Forest, Sea, Air and Volcano.

Story
"The Great Deceit..." Many years have passed since the Battle of Astreg. In the wake of an uneasy peace, the omens have now begun to point towards imminent war. Cunning Magor has managed to gain the trust of Elios and the People of the Air, luring them into what he calls his "Great Deceit". With this precarious alliance in place, Magor has begun using magic to empower his armies. Now, the warriors of the Volcano People will be able to immerse themselves into the scalding lava, to be transformed and empowered. The People of the Air, Magor's new allies, have also grown in strength, becoming lighter and faster as parts of their bodies transform into "pure air". Their nemesis, The Old Sage, has battened down the hatches, sending the People of the Sea to the bottomless "Chasm of the Spirits" and the People of the Earth to the Mystic Cavern of Roscamar to seek out the ancient Muscorian Gems, so that both people can be regenerated.The Old Sage has now bestowed upon the People of the Forest the ancient power of Mimesis so they can keep watch and defend the island of Gorm, while their allies go looking for new powers. Ready to fight again, the ranks of the Gormiti stand united, ready to take on the Army of Evil once more.
