I would like to know where did u find out about attacktix and why did u buy it. I found out about attacktix from a magazine. Being active trading cards never got me interessted neither did action figures which you had to control. With Attacktix one pull of the arm causes the spring to attack and destroy. Building a team and attackting also interested me. My dad bought me a marvel starter and booster in which i pulled out elecktra and Thing. Then my cousin a week later brought me 2 boosters in which i got a beast, thor, chrome mystique and punisher. i then bought my first boostrer and got a pyro and doc ock. Soon buying another one getting thor and beast. Traded the Thor for SW4 Vader. My uncle got me the Star Wars vs Transformer Intergalactic sshowdown. I was given a SOP vehicle and Ransack which i traded the beast for. A week later i got S2 marvel starter, transformer battle master which had crumplezone and i got a marvel booster which had gambit and spideyman. 2 weeks later i bought a booster which had thor and chrome elektra. 2-3 weeks later i got two more booster pulling out a elektro and mystique, chrome hulk and beast. Thats all i have. i was interested because it was different then any other toys. ;D

I went to TRU looking for some new TFs, they didn't have any, and then I saw a TF pack. I pick it up and it has Hot Shot and Omnicon, not great but I already liked the game. Got another, Scourge and Mini-Con, again not good but I continued to enjoy the game. I really wanted to see a bigger base then small so I got the starter which all had medium bases. Unfortunately the once large stock of TF Attacktix dissapeared RIGHT when I started to buy packs. Then came Marvel, got my first large based Thing, later, my first chrome which was SOP vehicle. That about sums it up.

I have had the honor of being hooked from the very beginning! I took my kids to the Star Wars Episode 3 celebration at my local Wal-mart, where they had all the "brand new" Star Wars toys for sale and a small demo for the "new" Attacktix game. My kids got free samples (Plo Koon and Wookie Commando I think) and we were hooked! I bought a starter pack the next day and the rest is history...

I used to collect Star Wars Action Figures, and there was many times in a row when I went to a toy store and didn't see any new figures. Once when I went to Johnny's Toys I was frustrated with yet another unsuccessful toy store run when I looked down and saw these triangle shaped boxes (Series 1 SW) and became intrigued. I figured I could get other people to play it if there were no dice involved... just take them out of the box and shoot! Who wouldn't like that?

I missed the SW3 celebration with the freebies, but soon after I found them at Toys R Us. I've always kept informed on collectible games, and I was intrigued by the fact that 'Tix seemed a lot simpler than many of the games out there. Bought a booster, went back the next day, bought a starter, went back later in the week and bought a mega...etc., etc.
This paid off in a number of ways for me, not only did I love the game, my wife enjoyed playing it too (a rarity among the collectible games I've played), and the toy aspect is something I can hand off to my little girl to play with as well.
