While much of the focus of the Transformers TCG from Wizards of the Coast has been on the cast of those first two seasons of the show, the less popular third season has still received several character cards for representation. Movie characters who went on to star in the third season like Arcee, Kup, Hot Rod, Springer, Blurr, and now Ultra Magnus have all received cards along with season 3 exclusive characters like Predaking and Metroplex; however, the third season still has several big characters that I'm waiting to make their appearance in the card game. So just as I went over the character cards I wanted to see most from season 1 and season 2, here are the character cards I want most from season 3 of the original G1 television show!

He was a small, rhyming sidekick to Grimlock and later went on to be a partner with Daniel in many adventures. I've always ...

Transformers the Card Game has become the newest sensation in my household, and Wizards of the Coast don't seem likely of halting the game's momentum anytime soon. Wave 2 brought a lot of new mechanics and fan favorites characters to the mix, while wave 3 seems set up to do the exact same. While wave 2 covered many of the characters I wanted to see like combiners, the coneheads, and Hot Rod, there is still a plethora of Transformers characters out there to be introduced in the game. Wave 3 was very recently revealed, with Ultra Magnus finally making his debut along with confirmation of Soundwave's long awaited inclusion, and in anticipation I'll be counting down the top 10 G1 Transformers I want to appear most in the card game.

Sky Reign combiner This one is a bit of the odd one out; however, wave 2 focused heavily on the Combiner Wars toy era for their combiner cards, with Optimus Maximus being included, and the Sky Reign combiner is one tha...

Wizards of the Coast have been releasing a fantastic card game in my opinion that I have really been enjoying. I like the mechanics of the game, as well as collecting all the new characters that come up! With only two waves released, and a third on the way, the game is still missing several key characters who have yet to receive cards to represent them. I have already made a list detailing the season 1 bots that I want to see next, and now I'll be delving into season 2 of the original G1 show for the characters from that span of episodes who are missing and who I want to see most in the coming waves! (Image Source) 5. Perceptor My entry to the original G1 show was by way of the original film, and Perceptor's big role in that lead me to believe that he was part of the newly introduced season 3 cast. When I went back and actually watched the show though I found that he had been around since season 2 as the crew's head scientist when before there had primarily only be...

Wizards of the Coast recently released an awesome wave two to their Transformers card game. I am loving this new card game, with its mechanics, and the cards themselves! Character cards make the entry of new characters feel special, and makes me excited for new ones to be introduced and brought into the fold. Of course, with wave 3 on the horizon I've been thinking about what characters I want to get cards next. Two waves hasn't been nearly enough for all of the characters to be covered, not even close, so here are the characters from season 1 of the G1 show that I want to appear in the card game! (Image Source) Honorable Mention: Soundwave The absence of this character in two full waves (not to mention several expansions) is an absolute crime; however, WOTC have confirmed that he will be releasing this year, a couple cards for him in fact, so I know that he will be coming soon. They wanted to figure out the gimmick to include his cassettes as well, and as long as it a...

This is a continuation of the series of posts where I look into which Pokemon I want from each type for Mega Construx's line of buildable Pokemon sets. Sets of 6 Pokeballs are released similar to their "Heroes" line but it is always smaller Pokemon, usually first evolutions, and this time I'll be thinking about the steel type Pokemon that I want to see most in Pokeball sets for the future. (Image Source) 5. Klink This Pokemon gets a lot of flak from fans who say that it is uncreative, but I do like this Pokemon and the concept of it becoming larger and more complex with each evolution. I also think that due to this Pokemon's design to would work really well for the line, just as Porygon did, and the cute little face would be a fun printed piece for the line to create. (Image Source) 4. Meltan This is the most recent addition to the Pokemon universe (At least, before generation 8 releases), and this Pokemon solidly lands a spot on my list. Meltan is...

Over the course of 5 seasons, the CW's The Flash has introduced a plethora of villains for the scarlet speedster to go up against. Nearly every episode gives us a new foe in the rogue's gallery, and many of them have been very fun, scary, or entertaining villains. Here I will be going down my top five favorite villains from the show that has shown up thus far. I'm not including big bads here who obviously get a lot more development and screen time than others, so Reverse-Flash, Zoom, Savitar, Thinker, and Cicada cannot appear here, neither can the seasons' secondary big bads like Grodd, Killer Frost, and the Mechanic. The only villains appearing here are the minor ones who have only gotten a episode or two under their belts, who I wish would get even more. (Image Source) Honorary Mentions These are a couple of villains who I absolutely loved when they were on screen, but just didn't beat out the others on this list. I still remember the shock and awe I had ...

I am a new collector for the Transformers Movie Masterpiece line, and while I was playing catch up over these past couple of months I found it actually pretty easy since the line is surprisingly shallow in the amount of characters it has covered; being that only one or two figures are released each year. So far all we have is Optimus, Bumblebee, Starscream, Beetlebee, Ironhide, and Barricade. 2007 Megatron and Jazz have been revealed for release later this year, so the line is growing and I'm looking to where it can head next. A line like this will be very selective of what characters it makes, so not all characters will get into this line but the ones that do will be very well done. With that in mind, I've thought of the top 5 characters that I'd like to see in the movie masterpiece line from Hasbro! (Image Source) 5. Ratchet With Jazz coming out later this year, we'll be one figure away from completing that original 2007 Autobot lineup, and that one figure is...
