Discussed here mate, about half way down the page

Essentially these cards make up part of your team. Vandalize where you can scrap all enemy Weapons, Upgrades or Utilities is particularly useful.

The only downside is if you include one that leaves you with only 24 stars left to spread over your Character Cards, however if you had a team where their total was 23 or 24 Stars its perfect to add in.

I ended up getting only one full combiner and it was the same combiner as the first box (Superion), along with most of the same combiner bots I got in the first box, including doubles of the combiner bots I got doubles of in the first box (what are the odds of ending up with eleven "common" Stunticon cards but still missing out on Offroad to complete just one set). I didn't even manage to get the "common" Dreadwind to complete the only 2-bot combiner (I now have three Darkwings).

And that's not all, of the 18 non-combiner characters in series 2, I only ended up with 2 new ones... with the other 7 being duplicates (I got 9 of the 18 in the first box, so I expected at least 4 or 5 new ones in this box). To top it all off, I didn't get a Super Rare character either (the odds are one in every 79 packs, so I was probably really lucky to get one in the first box... but with this box having so many repeat cards, including six of the same uncommons and the same rare card, so a Super Rare would have made it a bit more worth it).
Hence why its called a Trading Card Game

When we get a few more members building up doubles, we really should get the trading going on Ozformers so we can fill in the gaps in each others teams, especially when it comes to the combiners

So far the only doubles I have are Dead End and Mirage
