Wizards of the Coast Transformers card game

[Sharky]

For those who are playing this, how long does it usually take for you to play out a game, usually? And is it something that is interesting to watch as a spectator?

I'm just wondering if we should try to do up some game days if there is enough people in close proximity to each other... and if we had a competition, I'd want it to still be worth watching by those who are not playing, or knocked out of the competition.
(I still haven't gotten around to trying it out... but not sure how much time I should set aside to give it a go.)

depends on your deck builds and your opponents, experience level etc etc

15-20 minutes on a basic build or starter deck up to around 30 minutes I guess

WrecknRule on Youtube these guys are pretty good with tips and tricks and some gameplay videos

gameplay starter vs custom

Apparently this was posted up on the closed official TFs Trading Card game facebook page (where they revealed things before posting it up on their open page).... a Chinese New Year golden Bumblebee character card, released only in Malaysia. It's in Chinese, so won't be released outside of Asia, and is said to only be meant for the launch of the card game in Asian markets, in Chinese.
The golden Bumblebee card, and the new Omega Supreme card, are both free gifts if you pre-order an entire booster pack box from that site. With 30 packs in a box, the pre-order price is about AU$117 (almost AU$4 per pack).
Considering the prices that those two free gifts will fetch on the secondary market, they could pretty much pay for the booster pack box... but I don't think there would be too many people wanting to buy 30 booster packs who wouldn't be interested in those two extremely rare cards (the Bumblebee card is probably so limited it doesn't even have a rarity rating on it).

Thanks for this. So the recommendation is still the other mob that's hard to get in Australia?

these will be good to protect your cards in the interim from scratches etc but I think something more rigid is still required

and if the toploaders do ever make it here these sleeves will fit inside to offer extra protection

they also still fit in the 4 pocket pages from ultra pro once sleeved

Will open them when I get sleeves.

yeah they are a great fit, it just isn't a rigid product to prevent the curling on the foils. worth the cost for protection

I am curious how this will be handled in the series 2 product with the foldable cards

Could you go to the comic shop and buy the backing cards for the comics and cut them to size, slip them into the sleeve?

you could do that but then you would only seeing one side of the card

also you might as well use the cardboard dummies in the packs

Oh that reminds me, I'd just assumed everyone had seen these.

I'll use the same sturdy sleeves we're using for series 1 and not fold them, using these:

Flippy, flippy
