The original Legends card also called him Demolisher and it appears to have been retconed that the UT character is Demolishor and the G1 character is Demolisher since the Kreon that came out at the same time used the Demolishor name. It's always interesting fans come up with excuses for errors and turn them into canon. (Or is that fanon?)

There are so many awesome designs from those games and they did so little with them. The Insecticons, Warpath, Ironhide, the rest of the Dinobots, FoC Megs and so in...
I would buy them all :x :HEADHURTS:

Yes, I had hope while Thrilling 30th because they released FoC Skywarp and Thundercracker but sadly no other new Moldawien/characters.

If it could work for Scattorshot I'd say "yeah, cool", but since it can't I agree that it's error fixing via retcon :)

Seriously ?
It looks very plain/uninspired to me.
Looks like something I could have drawn.

The original mode is way better and really more distinctive..

It's a pretty clever design really. He actually transforms backwards with his chest being made from the back of the turret and the top of the tank forming the arms and the canons going on his back. It's a creative solution that reverses the more common tank transformations. It's still fairly simple, but would make for a good Deluxe.

I suppose this confirms Shockwave is going to get some love when it comes to hand disruption, seeing as you'll be putting cards into your opponent's hand to discard them. But still, I'm not quite sure how good hand disruption is in this game judging from all the draw we've seen.

The "Transformers Trading Card Game" Facebook group has Wizards of the Coast employees in it. They post spoilers occasionally. This one in particular was posted by a guy named Drew (I think; gotta find his post real quick).

EDIT: Yeah, Drew Nolosco to be specific.

Q&A on the Transformers Trading Card game Instagram and Shockwave Alt mode reveal

Postby ZeroWolf » Thu Aug 09, 2018 2:45 pm

Motto: "My past no longer binds my future..."
Weapon: Battle Blades
We've got two pieces of news on the Official Transformers Trading Card game to share.

The first is another Question and Answer session from the Transforms Official Trading card game Instagram account, dealing with a few basic questions about the forthcoming Wizards of the Coast Transformers Trading Card Game! One of the questions asked however is the identity of two of the rarest cards in this first set, and they are Nemesis Prime// Dark Clone and Bumblebee// Legendary Warrior, both being Super Rare.

The second, comes from the Transformers Trading Card game group on Facebook, and is brought to our attention from fellow Seibertron user #Sideways#. This is the reveal of Shockwave's Alt mode in the Trading Card game and it's effect. This is the latest in a series of card reveals, as reported here and here!.

Image

This helps to further cement Shockwave as having abilities to strengthen hand control.

Let us know in the comments what you think of Shockwave and if you are going to be playing this game when it launches!

Stay tuned to Seiberton for more news and reviews!

Good eye! That's certainly wrong, as I would have to wonder what they would spend the next year doing as everything looks ready to go now. Guess someone just put the wrong year in. We're all human after all :-)

Makes sense. He only has one hand. I'm sure he has found a way to maximize his use of it. ;)

Depending on the win conditions, it could easily be adapted to be multiplayer later on.

New upgrade card reveals for the Official Transformers Trading Card Game

Postby ZeroWolf » Wed Aug 15, 2018 3:01 pm

Motto: "My past no longer binds my future..."
Weapon: Battle Blades
With it's release in a few scant weeks, theOfficial Transformers Trading Card Game Facebook Group has been at it again (Following reveals here and here!). Thanks to a tip off from fellow Seibertron user, #Sideways#, we now have three Upgrade cards to show from the forthcoming base set, and one featuring everyone's favourite Seeker (oh and an appearance from everyone's favourite wannabe scriptwriter, if you been following IDW)

Without further ado:

Turbo Booster (As modelled by Sunstreaker)

Null Ray of Starscream

Image

Bombing Run (As modelled by Thundercracker)

Got some more spicy scans to show you guys! Energy Sword makes Nemesis a lot better by allowing him to mill more of his deck, and Peace Through Tyranny is insane for Swarm strategies to both go fast early and self-destruct a dying Insecticon.

But the best of all is System Reboot. Holy crap, this thing is insane. Not only do you have access to a great draw card, disruption for your opponent, but this makes Shockwave insane.

Shockwave forces your opponent to damage their team for each card that they discard. If they have seven cards in hand (especially doable if you transformed Shockwave last turn) you can force them to discard all seven, indirectly dealing massive damage to their field.

And? You get to draw a bunch of cards while you do so.

Really quite insane.
