Okay, use this thread to post a little bit about yourself so we can see where everyone is, and how many generations this game spans! Real name NOT necessary... Joe Manzo 26 Tampa, FL Getting married in a month and still playing with toys! Favorite figure so far is Tarfful. But (Black) Darth Vader is a close second. I also have a Marvel Comic fansite. Check out www.nybugle.com if you get bored! Who links to this site?

My name's Jean-Paul, but I go by J.P. If you want a good laugh try to talk to me in french. I'm 25 and I too live in Tampa, FL. noticing a trend here? my hobbies include watching movies, reading (mostly comics) and chasing my dog with the vacuum. my favorite food is probably tacos, but i'll eat most items on a chinese food menu. I write a weekly column called Komic Sutra for Broken Frontier.com. you can read it here. the link is to one of my newer and more favorite columns, The Hunt for Star Wars Figures. right now my favorite Attacktix is Anakin with force blast. his base is HUGE!

Hey gang, My name is Randy Taylor 32 I'm in Pasco, WA I have a lovely wife and a beautiful 2 year old daughter. I love Attacktix, and I am trying to convince my wife to play a round with me. ;D My daughter is very interested, but she's a bit too young, yet. My favorite so far is #19 Mace Windu. Cheers! -Zinc

Cheers! -Zinc Glad to see some other "experienced" gamers, for lack of a better term. Get the wife to play, everyone's doing it. JayPee and I have successfully coerced our GFs into it!

i'm a coerced girlfriend (as joe mentioned) and i'm happily attatched to JayPee.
i'm 22 and live in tampa. i'm in school working on my master's degree, so i don't get too much time to play attacktix...but i'm sure JayPee will try to remedy that during my summer break. though i do kick his ass often when we play.
i don't particularly have a favorite figure...though i like the ones with big guns. (i'm sure that says something creepy about me!)

Addicted to Attacktix now. After seeing the upcoming stuff @ C3, I'm really excited about the stuff coming out in the fall.

Hi guys, Ray here from New Orleans, just got into these crazy things. I got into them over the weekend. Got the starter set with lots of hesitation, but my room mate is also a big ol' SW geek and it was forums like this that got me convinced. I agree with so many that once you get them they are like CRACK!!! I got a Super Battle Droid with my starter set. Not bad. So i got my first booster and got Bale Organa, a Wookie Warrior, and Nute Gunray. Not great, almost stopped then and there. But, my booster today was ay more promising, Chrome Dooku, Armored Vader, and a Battle Droid. I would never have gotten fully into these things as I am much more a Original Trilogy guy, but then I saw the pics from C3 of the OT figures like Bosk, Han, and Luke. Plus there is supposed to be a Clone Transport which means even more vehicles will probably come out eventually. I'm hoping for a HOTH set with AT-AT and Snowspeeder. This stuff freaking ROCKS!!! -Ray New Orleans 31

Hiya! I'm Dex, 34 from Lynn, MA (right next to Salem). I've only ever played Attacktix once at a C3 demo, but I've bought a handful of boosters. When I went into the store on Apr 2, this was one of the only things on the shelf that I had to get. I haven't tried to get my wife into it, but there's no good spot to play in our house with the dog and 2 cats

Hi, I'm Sean (group: 'Hi, Sean') and I'm here at AA (Attacktix Anonymous) because I'm hooked on these little guys.
I'm a 30 graphic designer living in Somerville, Mass (just outside of Boston.. and pretty close to Dex). But, I'm originally from Buffalo, NY.
I used to be a pretty serious HeroClix junkie, but found it harder and harder to get the fix I was looking for. 'Till I came across my precious little 'Tix. They offered everything I was looking for. They were simple, fast, fun, kinetic, and collectable. No more hunting down 8 zillion figures and spending millions. No more complex rules that change every 3 months. No more harassing friends to play a game that they could take or leave. I've gotten my friends into the 'tix' and they enjoy it for the same reasons I do.
Well, I've said my peace. I'm here at AA to get help. Not to kick the habit but to embrace it. "If this is wrong, then I don't want to be right." ;D
