Built due to an awkward exchange of technology between the [[Free Worlds League]] and the [[Word of Blake]], the '''''Toyama''''' was designed by Dr. [[Thaddeus Anable]] and then given to the Word of Blake through an agreement made by Captain-General [[Thomas Marik (False)|Thomas Marik]]. The ''Toyama'' is intended to be a multirole [[BattleMech]] that can operate somewhat independently of supply lines. The 'Mech is built on a lightweight [[Endo Steel]] chassis which supports a Vlar 300 [[Extralight fusion engine|XL engine]]. The ''Toyama'' has a top speed of 64.8 km/h, making it capable of keeping pace with most heavy 'Mechs. The ''Toyama'' has an impressive twelve tons of Durallex Heavy armor. To dissipate heat, the ''Toyama'' carries fourteen [[double heat sink]]s. The 'Mech also carries a Garret/Guardian Interface Guardian [[ECM Suite]] to protect the 'Mech from advanced enemy electronic warfare systems.<ref name=TRO3060p118f>''Technical Readout: 3060'', pp. 118–119: "''Toyama'' 'Mech Profile"</ref>

The ''Toyama'' has a [[Doombud]] [[LRM-20]] launcher for long range direct and indirect bombardment capabilities. The ''Toyama'' also has two [[Diverse Optics Sunbeam]] [[ER large laser]]s and an [[Imperator Code Red]] [[LB 10-X autocannon]], which can fire both standard ammunition and cluster rounds, for long range combat. For close range engagements, the ''Toyama'' has three [[Magna Mk II]] [[medium laser]]s.<ref name=TRO3060p118f/>

*; TYM-1B : This variant on the -1A downgrades the extralight engine to a [[Light Engine|light engine]] that is heavier, but makes the ''Toyama'' more durable. All of the weaponry of the -1A is also stripped out and replaced. The LRM was downsized to a Doombud [[LRM-15|15-pack]] and the medium lasers were replaced with a pair of Diverse Optics [[ER medium laser]]s. The autocannon and large lasers were replaced with new Blankenburg PPCs that were originally developed by the [[Draconis Combine]]: two [[Light PPC|lights]] and a [[Heavy PPC|heavy]]. The ECM Suite was replaced with a now-ubiquitous [[C3i computer]]. The new weapons package left enough room to shore up the armor on the arms and legs, as well as include a [[Compact Gyro|compact gyro]]. Sixteen double heat sinks keeps the -1B cooler than the -1A.
