Transformers Trading Card Game Design Lead Ken Nagle brings great wave 3 news to us today, with the reveal of Private Trailbreaker:
Trailbreaker is a good-humored Autobot with the power to create forcefields. He is a light in the darkness. In the TransformersTCG, Trailbreaker is part of a 3-card cycle of characters that each find a “signature” battle card. You do this before the game begins so there’s not a halt during the game to find a particular card. It’s a bonus card in your opening hand so it helps you start the game ahead.
Read the full details of this character reveal here, then join in the discussion on the 2005 boards!

The art in this set is incredible. The previous art was really hard to see but this art is bold and amazing even double sleeved. I'm really digging the fact that you can buy some of these in plastic as well.

Woah didn’t realize the terrible typos but yeah hasbro has had distribution problems the last year with the toys and cards. Glad at least the cards came in at my local Walmart. Toys they barely have wave 2

Yeah it seems like the shipping to my area got delayed or something. Owner at one checked the tracking and they said the cards won't be in until next week, and the employee at the other was unloading their new stock and there was nothing from WOTC.
SaintsIconsNemesis
They all should all have them
Deepsea
Both my local gaming stores arent getting the wave in until next week, do you folks think I should check target/walmart?
SaintsIconsNemesis
also I have found maybe my luck it’s easier get rare and super rare cards. I have done that for the first two waves
SaintsIconsNemesis
I do both. I have a box ordered but I had some gift cards from my birthday in April I didn’t use
That Guy
Is there a reason you bought individual packs rather than ordering boxes? It would be cheaper no?
Wreckgar
I wonder if my Walmarts are going to switch out the wave 2 packs that are still sitting there
SaintsIconsNemesis
Went out and brought up all the packs from three Walmart’s locally. Oops. Sorry guys. That was me. Got all the playing cards but missing all the super rares and 5 rare still. Got two starsscreams, iron hide and forgot the last rare I got. Time to shop at target and empty them out. Love this game. Missing only the sdcc playing cards but will bid for those too. Everything else I have since the start of this game.

I do believe you can get Shockwave and Prime from Wave 1 for much cheaper than they were going for. Or just take a shot and buy a box?
Dinobot Snarl
My uneducated and possibly misguided opinion follows:
Ultramagnus, Shockwave, Cog, Megatron, Alphatrion, Elita1, Are the greatest from this wave.
Honorable mention to Needle Nose, Ironhide and…possibly Hound
Firecons as a team look plain fun.
Many of them make me wish I had Wave 1 Super Rares, such as:
Captain Shockwave (paired with Shockwave),
Alphatrion (paired with Legendary Prime)
Elita 1(paired with Legendary Prime)
Shockwave decks look set to dominate decks that don't include Ironhide, Ultramagnus + UM armor, Defensive driving
I was hoping to see:
Siege Jetfire, Springer, and Sixshot.
A more intimidating Prime (I missed Legendary Prime)
My guess is well see those guys in Wave 2… Though I'm betting Prime might be similar to Magnus…Upgrade Prime.
I'll buy a box.
