Is it just me, or is this the best sculpt and paint job in Attacktix history?
As for the ghost, it's definitly supposed to be the S.H.E.I.L.D. Agent (d**n Marvel and their crazy 10 pt large missle shooters), as for why he'd been possessed by some cross between Kitty Pryde and the Invisible Woman is anyone's guess.

Hopefully you can thingy Wolverine back and press a button, rather then manually pulling it back and releasing.
Also........WOW!!!! It's a ghost!!!!!and at the toyfair!!!! ;D
Actually if you look at the pic fo0r awhile you will see that that particular figure is behind some sort of stand, kinda like the one that the other figs are standing on.
actually if you look at the other toyfair pics the figure above Nick Fury is the one you see here, only there is a stand in front of him.

The blue button is a firing mechanism IMO. Looks like the buttons on the big sentinel hand (wrist) is the hit pad, and I'm betting the whole thing, hand and all, tips forward. I'm betting that the Wolvie projectile pulls back like Hulk, but locks in place and the blue button shoots him at a slight down-angle onto the battlefield.
That's my view.

Wouldn't it be hard to run the mechenism that releases colosses arms from being locked in place up his narrow legs. You know what I mean, for that idea to work it would have to go up his legs cause those are the only thing touching the sentinal hand right? I don't think it would lock in place for that reason. |

What if Wolverine locks back into the Sentinel hand (not sure if he's held at the right angle, though), which then tautens Colossus's springs in his arms, which are released when a button is push, which sends Wolverine flying?
Crazy theory but probably unlikely due to what is stated above in parentheses.

I agree that is a little crazy, but it seems more likely then his just locking and then pushing a button to reales colosses's hands... (colosses's? colosses'? colosseses'? I never was real great at English)

NEW PHOTOS!!  It looks like Magneto is along for the ride. And looking at it from this angle makes me think that Colossus does not detach from the base and what we thought were little buttons on the 'nuckle' under him are just sculpted details. Here's a boxed image.  (and they could just be using an old box for the promo image but look at that Intergalactic Showdown logo, odd) |

Wow, that's the coolest and possibly the strongest mega ever. I wonder how Colossus throws Wolverine?  |

I wonder how Colossus throws Wolverine? well, it looks like Colossus has a clear ring in his hands. It's possible that you simply place the Wolvie missile into the ring, pull back on the tail end of the missile and let go. |

Yeah, I figured it would be like that, but it looks like Wolverine won't go that far. Or he can go really far and be a killer like the new Spidey mega.  |

Wow! Cool pics. I like that they did redo magneto's paint job a bit. Hope that is the case with the final product.

Cool pictures! That Wolverine missile is huge; if use correctly, this mega could do some really serious damage. I'm not crazy about the side targets- I thought Boga was the first and last mega to have those easy-to-push-in buttons. Maybe they will be a bit harder to go in. Too bad we don't know the point cost yet. I'm guessing it's 70 points.
And a big based Magneto! This could actually make him a playable figure, if you like using his metal blast.
