Transformers Character Card

e-HOBBY marked its return to the Transformers brand in 2022 with an aggressive merchandising push, the crown jewel of which was Transformers Character Card, a series of trading cards providing bios and tech specs for characters across the brand, with a particular focus on e-HOBBY original characters as well as on Generation 1 characters never before seen in Japanese markets such as the Action Masters and late-wave Pretenders. While largely summaries of existing fiction, these bios occasionally provide supplemental story tidbits in the interests of fleshing out more obscure characters.
