My theory was that he displays the figs w/o the missiles so he's just selling them off? Joe and I have a friend who just displays Attacktix so I'm sure there could be another one out there. Ah, quite possible. I've seen him auction off some figures, but it seems like he's auctioning off fewer than he's won. An excellent surmise, Phoenix!

So we got a bit lazy chasing after our attacktix missiles and we lost one with are decreased vigilance! - I continue to believe the one of my cats hid it somewhere (they are tired of being shot in the butt perhaps?). It's amazing though what those missiles ricochet off of, to then disappear out of site. We have so many missiles now from having two full sets (and more..yowza) that it doesn't matter THAT much. As long as I dont loose Boba's weird shaped missile!

I have to stop and immediately find them. It's funny because everyone else that I play with are perfectly content to leave them wherever they are and pull another one out to continue. But I'm usually crawling around looking for one while they're sitting there waiting to get the game going.

I watch where the shots go and then find them at the end of the turn. I've briefly lost a couple missiles, but found them later. The longest one missing was about a week. A large green Wookiee missile at that. My cats don't really enjoy the Attacktix events. Only one shows interest and I'm sure she's thinking about how nice it would be to eat those pesky, clicking mice. She lays down smack dab in the middle of the battle board and refuses to move. And being rather fat (Can I say fat without insulting anyone? How about overweight? Obese?) she takes up a lot of room when she lays down. So one day I started shooting her with some missiles to prompt her to move. At this she took a mild interest, but no movage. I was aiming a Wookiee Commando (yeah, shoot her with the ones that look *most* like mice...that's a good plan...) and she leaned forward to sniff it and I popped the trigger. Hit her on the side of her nose right by the eye. Oops. Won't be doing that again. I feel pretty bad about that. If I could smite myself for that, I would ... but I'm sure someone else will accomodate me anyway. Anyway, I think I'm down one small, red missile over the course of my playing career. But since I've made some customs using V-Wing pilots, I'm not really "missing" it. I think I have an extra red missile actually. I'm down two small blue missiles, taken from unwary ARC Pilots, that were used to arm my customs.

Sorry Gravesmythe, but I had to smite you for shooting your cat in the face... I only shoot mine in the stomach haha.
Your situation sounds freakishly similar to mine. The longest I have been down a missile is a week, and strangely enough, it was also a large green wookie missile. And,I have a cat that loves laying down right in the middle of the playing field.

Thanks, copes.
I'll Exalt you as soon as I get my ability back. I've been Exalting the people with whom I've had good trades and who have put a lot of effort into the board.
So it might be tomorrow.

After my husband and daughter lost one of the AT-RT missile I have a habit of picking them up before any one is finished with their turn. Was anyones AT-RT missiles purple or was it just ours?

Yes, they are all purple.
And what's with all the cats? I feel like I'm missing something. Are Star Wars fans supposed to have cats? Or is it an Attacktix thing? Someone clue me in. I need to know if I'm getting a feline companion or not.

I was a dog person all my life. Allergic to cats, even.
Then my wife and daughter found a stray behind the grocery store. Naturally, I had to catch it. Really all I had to do was reach down and it dug into my arm with claws and fangs and kinda stuck there....
Then that cat had a couple litters of kittens over the course of the next year or so. We kept one of the kittens. Note: mother and kitten are not good house companions. I've learned this is generally the case as the mother wishes the kitten would go out on her own and the kitten wants independence as well.
Then a friend of my wife wanted to know if we'd take their cat. Being an animal lover (even the one's I'm allergic to and scratch and bite me), I agreed and we got a third. Note: three cats that each think they should be the queen of the house isn't really good. This is the cat that got fat. As in she lays on the floor and looks like a bear skin rug fat. As in she sits on the back of the couch to look out the window and her butt slides down so she has to cling on with her back paws fat. This is the one I was shooting the Attacktix missiles at.
My dog doesn't really like the fact we have 3 cats, but every time he protests he gets a claw to the nose. What's a guy gonna do?

I think me and the boys are out 4: one large, one regular, and two purple AT-RT's.
We've looked, but have never found.
