Does anybody agree with me on the fact that attacktix series are coming out too fast? I just not a few months ago go out to buy a few series 3 boosters and I see the Intergalatic showdown for sale. It took a while to get series 2 out. Hasbro should take their time, or attacktix will meet its extinction all too soon.

Well, series 2 took a very long time to come out after series 1 compared to series 3 and 4. Series 4 came out so fast after series 3, that I didn't even complete series 3.

I'd still tend to agree that new sets seem to be coming out too quickly. I'd be happier with a 6-8 month lag time between series. It'd give people longer to acquire complete sets - and to let their bank accounts have a bit of a rest!

I feel like they're coming out a bit too quickly as well. Especially since I can't buy them locally and have to make special trips or wait until they show up online. The thought that Marvel and SW S5 may come out at the same time makes my wallet cringe. And there will probably be another line of TF in there as well!

I can't get enough. Keep them coming. I just don't know were I'm going to put them all.

It really didn't seem like too long too me; I just started collecting 6 months or so ago, and I collected 2 sets each of S1-3, then I got my IGS, then S4. It was a bit less expensive than I budgetted for as well as the packs were 1.98$ each!

I don't mind the speed at which the sets are coming out, it just seems like you can find them in bunches when they are first released then they become harder to find once a store sells out because it takes a long time for them to be re-stocked.

If they release Transformers Attacktix at this rate I'll be happier than a pig in S$#@.

They can't come out fast enough for me. They could have a new series every 2 months and I would be happy!

The only time the release scheduale annoyed me was during S2, stores almost immiedietly ran out and only got one or two more shipments before S3 cameout (I have only about half of S2 and 80% of S3). But as long as they keep the new boosters with only 18 figs I think it won't be as much of a problem in the future.

At first, when I saw that Series 4 and Transformers were coming out at the same time, my bank account cringed. I knew that I was definitely going to collect them all, but it would be tough because of money constraints. At that point, I would have said to Hasbro "Too Much!", but now I feel differently. As a side note, the sets may be smaller, but in total there are 24 super rares to collect as opposed to the 15 super rares in the previous 3 sets. Which in the end makes it more expensive to collect each of these sets, even though they only add up to 6 more figures. I have had a complete Series 4 set for about a month now and I almost have an entire Transformers set. In about two weeks my Transformers set will probably be complete and at that point I will want a new set to come out. Nothing sucks more than having no Attacktix to collect because you have them all. At this point, I think Hasbro should release a small 18 figure set about every three months. That would give a good amount of time to collect the entire set and would not disinterest people because of giant gaps between set releases. But then again, when I look at the future and see that Series 5, Transformers 2 and a Marvel set will be put out around the same time, I will once again think to myself "Too Much!" Hasbro needs to stagger the release of each set.

I'm fine with the timing of the releases especially if they continue with the 18 'tix set. Now if they change it back to the 30 set it might be a different story especially if they do that for 3 Attacktix brands.
