Ghost Rider is the starter? Do we really need 3 Spider-man figures in the first series? Seems like overkill to me. They do look cool though, so now the debate as to wether or not to get collect them as well. I am new to Attacktix and have been focusing on Transformers and some Star Wars.

Yes, we really do need 3 Spider Men figures and 2 Ghost Riders (one is a mega). These are going to be highly popularized by current and upcoming movies that will drum up support for Attacktix in stores. It makes the game better when more people play it.
Just like the fact that there are a ton of Obi-Wan Attacktix figures, people like him, Hasbro makes him , people buy him, Attacktix grows stronger.

I am new to Attacktix and have been focusing on Transformers and some Star Wars. |sf>I'm also a Transformers fan who came into Attacktix from that. As for three Spider-man figures, someone in another thread mentioned that not all three of the figures are part of the Spider-man faction. In the Transformers set, some special powers only affect Autobot or Decepticon characters. I wouldn't be surprised if the Marvel set will have special powers that affect Spider-man allies/foes, X-men/Magneto factions, etc. Having the factions will give the Marvel group a different layer, especially since some characters can fall into more than one faction (giving a purpose to having multiple releases for a character). As far as buying them, I wouldn't want to collect a full set of every figure with this one. I know many of the Spider-man and X-Men characters (and I would love a Spider-Woman or Black Cat figure, even though they're not within this series), but I'd probably trade away Punisher/Ghost Rider/etc. figures. Furthermore, if Hasbro doesn't release a Marvel Battle Case, that would be a further reason not to accumulate a huge collection of these guys. |

I don't know what to think about the battle case, it's on the TF list, but Hasbro seems to be avoiding it. But, you can still use a SW Battle case, the figures are interchangeable in it.
I don't know about how much you will buy Marvel attacktix, but the general rule of thumb is that Attacktix are like Pringles, once you pop, you can't stop. I said the same thing about Transformers when they first came out "I don't really want a full set", and now I'm only missing four figures. They are really quite addictive.
Have fun and happy Tix-ing.

The new Marvel set will Probably Be The Last straw and will be the end of my married life.
I have fought and fought the need to buy the Transformer line but Marvel is way too cool for me to resist.
I may need a couch to sleep on in November when they come out.

It looks like the Marvel figs will be at a disadvantage no matter who their ten point troopers are. Looking at this set I'd rather they not have any and just make it common=weak rare=strong figures, have it be make your favorite super hero team instead of Spiderman, Thor, and five Electra's to back them up.

|sf>I have a Star Wars battle case, but it would be fun to have a Transformers flag versus a Star Wars flag. That way each player could guard a flag on a battle case and it would change the play dynamics. You could even play with each battle case as though it were a castle and bring the enemy flag back to your own battle case castle. Besides, instead of having two or more copies of the same clone figure, I'd rather have a new figure. It's a shame that Hasbro doesn't rotate the contents of the battle cases. I don't know about how much you will buy Marvel attacktix, but the general rule of thumb is that Attacktix are like Pringles, once you pop, you can't stop. I said the same thing about Transformers when they first came out "I don't really want a full set", and now I'm only missing four figures. They are really quite addictive. I'm not saying that the Marvel Attacktix don't look nice. However, point 1: series 2 of Transformers will be released at the same time with presumedly 18 chase figures to find. Point 2: I'm not a fan of all those Marvel series. One of the charms of Attacktix is an attraction to characters that I already know. Having a Green Goblin, Venom, or Gambit figure would mean more to me than owning any of the Ghost Rider figures or The Thing. It doesn't mean that there's anything wrong with those other figures or characters. It means I would probably trade figures that aren't connected with my interest. |

Thus far its looking like this:
Boosters:
1. 40 point Hulk
2. 30 point Venom
3. Gambit
4. Beast
5. Spider-Man (Pole Kicker)
6. Wolverine (Claw Prodder)
7. Punisher
8. Thing
9. Captain America
10. Daredevil
11. Mystique
12. Magneto
13. Pyro
14. Thor
15. Electra
16. Electro
(I'm assuming the other two will be Doctor Octopus (being only available in wal-mart starter would make him exceedingly rare) and either Sabertooth or Ghost Rider as anyone else would be giving the boosters two of the same fig)
Megas:
Ghost Rider on Motorcycle
Wallow
Starter:
20 pt Sabertooth
30 pt Wolverine
40 Point Green Goblin (Leader)
30 pt Spider Man Web Blaster
Ghost Rider Starter:
20 pt Ghost Rider
40 pt Blackheart
20 pt Western Ghost Rider
20 pt Abigor
Spidey Origins Starter
10 pt Web Striker Spider-Man
20 pt Web Blast Apider Man (Armored)
30 pt Doctor Octopus
40 pt Green Goblin (Warrior)
32 New Figures in all, counting the two repeats or unknowns in the boosters.
