(lol.. why do I get the feeling that this has been talked about & I am going to get my thread locked again? ;D It's all good.. the mods here are pretty darn cool. Anywho.. until this gets the ax...)
What ideas do you guys have for possible new kinds of "attacks" that Hasbro could use for either the figures or the megas? I see that the Slave Leia has a new kinda shooter.. & the generic Ewok seems to (maybe) have a new kinda boulder crush move.
One that came to mind when I was playing Attacktix with my son the other night was an AT-AT mega. The legs themselves would be the "target points" & when either the front or back leg on both sides (2 total hits.. 1 on each side, but doesn't matter if it is the front or back leg), the AT-AT would "buckle" & fall to the ground, not unlike in the actual ESB movie. The AT-AT attack could be another ball system like Jabba (push a button on top of the AT-AT's back & balls shoot out of the AT-AT head, etc), or could be something all new like 2 missiles that fire simultaneously out of each side of the AT-AT's head.. BUT are connected by a string so that they form a "clothsline" or "bola" action when moving down range.
As far as figures go, I'd like to see a new attack that involves a pull-back... kinda like the pull back cars that, when pulled back a few inches, zoom forward. The figure's attack could involve a figure that works as more of a "ramming speed" piece. I would imagine that it would have to have the 5 cm base so that it doesn't tip over easily itself.. but basically when attacking you would point the figure in the direction you'd want it to ram.. pull it back about an inch or 2.. and when you let it go it would speed fwd about 10 to 12 inches. The up-side of the action would be a "bowling ball" effect and the downside would be that you could miss all together & wind up very close to an enemy attacker.. or that you'd go too far & fall out of bounds. Talent and practice, along with a little chance would all be involved. What character would fit for this? I am not sure.. maybe a Wampa monster or Gamorean Guard, etc.
Any other thoughts?

itll fly that way 
I like the idea alot but i dont think it is able to happen with the clickerthingy. As for new attacks I would love to see a attack with a throwing action lightsaber *obviously the lightsaber would have to be increased in weight* like a force throw...maybe a disc for that?
