Toy Maker is obtained from the Tournament event in Anime Expeditions: enter the tournament from the lobby, complete a match, then return to the Events rewards panel to claim the unit.
Toy Maker landed with the EA+ Release patch as an Exclusive unit, and unlike regular banner units she doesn’t sit behind a banner pull. She’s tied to the Release Tournament, which means the route to her is a mode you queue into rather than a currency you grind. The whole thing takes one match.

Toy Maker is an Exclusive unit listed under Event / Tournament content, so no amount of summoning or code redemption will produce her — the Tournament is the only door. There’s no level gate on the mode either, which is why brand-new accounts can pick her up on day one. Tournament reward panels do change between events, so open the live reward panel in-game before you queue and check what the current run is actually paying out.
How to get and claim Toy Maker in Anime Expeditions
The full run is a single Tournament match followed by one claim in the Events menu, and losing costs you nothing.
Open the tournament section
Launch Anime Expeditions and head to the tournament section in the lobby from the Play menu.
Enter the tournament mode
Select the Release Tournament and start a match — there is no level requirement to enter.
Play the match out
Winning is not required, so play the round through to the finish on the School Grounds map.
Finish win or lose
Either result qualifies you for the participation reward as long as you don’t leave early.
Return to the events menu
Head back to the main lobby after the match ends and open the Events menu.
Claim Toy Maker
Find the tournament event rewards, hit Claim, and Toy Maker drops into your collection.
Stay in the match until the results screen appears — leaving mid-round is the most common reason the reward never shows up.

Toy Maker missing after your match
If the claim button isn’t there when you get back to the lobby, the first thing to rule out is an early exit. A round you backed out of partway through doesn’t register as completed, and the reward simply won’t populate.
What Toy Maker actually does in combat
She’s a summoner, not an attacker. Placed on the field for 2200 Yen, Toy Maker spawns minions called Toys onto the nearest path in range, and those Toys march toward enemies and explode on impact. Each Toy carries 100% of Toy Maker’s current damage as its health, so every point of damage you add to her makes the Toys tougher as well as deadlier — the two scale together off one stat.
Upgrading her adds movement speed to the Toys and death damage to the explosion, which is what turns a slow trickle of chip damage into something that clears a wave. The catch is the one-placement limit — you get exactly one Toy Maker per map, so she’s a fixed investment rather than something you spam across a lane.
There’s no evolution path for her in the current patch, so her ceiling comes from leveling, gear, and stat or trait rerolls instead. The Unbound trait is the one to chase; it pushes her from solid into near-top-tier territory, and it’s the difference between a good starter unit and one that stays in your team long after you’ve unlocked better Mythics.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have to win the tournament to get Toy Maker?
No. Toy Maker is a participation reward, so finishing the match is the only condition — a loss counts exactly the same as a win.
Is Toy Maker available from summons or codes?
No. She’s classed as Event / Tournament content and never appears in the regular summon banners or in code rewards, so redeeming codes won’t help you here.
Where do you claim Toy Maker after the match?
In the Events menu back in the main lobby, under the tournament event rewards.
Can beginners get Toy Maker?
Yes. The Tournament mode has no level requirement, so a fresh account can queue in and finish a match the same as anyone else — she’s one of the strongest units a new player can hold this early.
Does Toy Maker have an evolution?
No evolution exists for her in the current patch. Her power comes from leveling, gear, and trait rerolls rather than an upgrade line.
