The fun continues in My Little Pony/Transformers #3, the penultimate issue of the crossover that seems as if it could very easily have been the most cynical of marketing ploys […]
Despite seeming to be an unholy mash-up of properties that are only being smooshed together to make money from two normally separate fanbases rather than one, I found the first […]
This crossover featuring two of Hasbro’s biggest toy and media franchises is such an insane idea that it really shouldn’t work. Yet, in the world of comic books, no matter […]
If you know me – or have read my articles for a while – you’ll know that I’m a huge Transformers fan. I’ve been a fan ever since they first […]
When I first started Mid-Life Gamer Geek back in the now utopian beforetimes of *checks notes* 2019, my intention was to continue writing about gaming; video games, board games and […]
As a fan of both 80s franchises since they first appeared, it’s great to see Transformers and Back to the Future combine during the 35th anniversary of the time travel […]
Very sad news to report today – Hasbro subsidiary Wizards of the Coast have announced that Titan Masters Attack – which was released on the 29th of May – is to be the final expansion for the Transformers Trading Card Game. According to the press release: “The Transformers TCG was truly a labor of love for the Wizards team, and […]
I’ve always been a fan of crazy, leftfield comic book crossovers. Comic books feel like the only place you can really get these utterly bizarre pairings of inter-company, multi-franchise characters […]
I’ve covered the Transformers TCG (Trading Card Game) a few times before; reviewing the base game and taking a look at some of the excellent expansions, for example – so when I was given some details on the newest wave of cards, I was incredibly excited to share the details. One of the things I’ve been consistently impressed with in […]
Regular readers will know that I’m not only a huge Transformers fan, but also a fan of collectible card games too; having played Magic for more years than I’d care to admit (though on and off – and more casually than serious), I was very excited when I first saw the Transformers Trading Card Game in the wild. The impressively […]
It’s been another busy week for me; somehow, however, I’ve still managed to maintain a pace of an article a day. For most of the week, I’ve tried to push myself into slightly unfamiliar territory and wrote several non-video game related pieces – there’s definitely been a more traditional, card-and-board-games feel to the blog this week, which wasn’t necessarily intentional!

It’s been a while since I wrote about the Transformers Trading Card Game (TCG) – and since my last article, I’ve had the chance to try out a number of […]
I thought I’d try something a little different today. As regular readers and close friends will know, I write daily – and I somehow manage to cover an awful lot of ground in a very short space of time. It’s very easy for readers who aren’t following me or being alerted to my new articles to miss them – and […]
Though I’m not a fan of Gears of War, I do acknowledge the positive impact it had on gaming, with third person shooters becoming far more prevalent in number as […]
The film that ruined a lot of childhoods, The Transformers: The Movie was a massive cultural event in its day, at least for those of us at a certain age […]
My love for gaming in all forms – including board and card games – is well documented elsewhere in my writing and I’ve also written quite a bit about my […]
