e-Hobby Super Deformed Transformers Character Cards

First launching in January of 2022, these thick prismatic plastic character cards feature an assortment of super deformed Transformers. Exclusive to Japan, I don't even remember how I got ahold of the few that I have. I'm not always a fan of the SD character designs, but anything two of my favorite hobbies (Transformers and trading cards) collide, I take interest.

Unfortunately I don't expect this section of the Database to grow much (unless someone offers to contribute scans) as I haven't been able to track down many cards that are in my price range. None the less, I hope you enjoy this latest entry.

TFPT 10 Stranglehold

3rd Party Entries - FansToys, KFC & X-Transbots

 As I work on getting my various card collections better organized in the new year, I keep finding cards from 3rd party TFs especially, that need to be scanned and added to their respective sections. With my latest update, I was able to find a few new character cards. More to come!

Dr. Wu Extreme Warfare

I've finally dipped my toes into the world of Dr. Wu's "Worlds' Smallest" scale of transforming robots with the purchase of E12 Blue Thunder vs. E13 Sky Glide...or better known as Thundercracker and Powerglide.

 

 

Unlike some of the other bio cards included with the toys from 3rd party companies, Dr. Wu's cards are slightly different. The stock used for the cards is a textured paper versus the normal glossy paper or plastic used. With the rounded corners, these remind me of playing cards. The art used for both the toy packaging and the cards is top notch. The back of the cards features Chinese (?) language along with some English in a very small, thin font.

Expect the Dr. Wu page to be updated again soon with more card scans as I kinda like these little guys quite well!

New Additions to the Kingdom Section

I finally found the time to scan a large stack of cards sitting on the corner of my desk and in the stack were several Kingdom cards. I really enjoyed this inclusion with the toys and hope Hasbro revisits the trading card pack-in later down the line again. With this update, the Kingdom section has also been updated.

Fans Hobby MB-14 Kap

It's been awhile since I've been able to update the Database, however today I have one small addition and somewhat of a rarity for me - a new 3rd party entry with Fans Hobby's Kap.


For many reasons I've resisted the urge to jump into the 3rd Party Masterpiece scale collecting circles, but I gave in when I saw what Fans Hobby was doing with the Masterforce characters. Kap was the last of the Junior Headmasters to be released and while the price was a little higher than his predecessors, it still was affordable.

I love the layout of these character cards and the fact that it uses toy photography over character artwork. I have several other figures from this MasterBuilder series that I hope to scan once I get around to opening the toys (I'm waiting to get another Detolf cabinet from IKEA...though the wait is getting harder and harder!) so if you are a fan of Fans Hobby then stay tuned for further updates.

01/29/22 Update

Today's update brings some upgraded scans to the Final Victory, X-Transbots' Naval and Toy World's Muddy round out the 3rd Party section. Also added a new Beast Wars Telemocha card of Convoy (even though the foil front doesn't scan that well.

Transformers Car Robots - Super Car Bros.

Well it's been entirely too long between updates to the Database so let's remedy that with a trio of new cards. After moving this summer and having the pleasure to set up my collection again, I decided to dedicate half of one Detolf display case to Car Robots/RID. After re-acquiring Super Fire Convoy, I decided to go after the 3 "car bros" to compliment the Autobot shelf. While the base versions are great toys, I only had room for one version of these molds so I went with the "super" repaints. Luckily I was able to track down all 3 Takara versions, boxed and complete for super cheap. As a added bonus I was abl to scan these beautiful cards to add to the Database. 

The front of these cards have a holo rainbow foil, which thankfully scan better than some foil cards...which you'll see on a future update coming soon. With the addition of these 3 cards the Car Robots section is very close to being complete.
