Transformers Attacktix Series 1 Spoilers - Insecticon

INSECTICON
#TF1-04



ATTACKTIX CLASS: Trooper
TRANSFORMERS CLASS: Decepticon
POINT VALUE: 10
BASE SPEED: 4
BASE: Small
SPECIAL POWER: Recruit (Insecticon)
ATTACK TYPE: Shooter (Small Missile)

Featuring a special power similar to the classic Battle Droid, the generic Insecticon can Recruit more Insecticons once he falls. The last of the standard 10 Point Troopers, the Insecticon balances out the sides, giving the Decepticon another troop builder. Though the power may not be as helpful as the Omnicons, he looks like a solid, sturdy shooter and should cause plenty of damage while on the field of battle!

What's up with "Base Speed". Starting with these new sets, Attacktix figures have a new movement tracker. Instead of a printed number on the base, the figure speed is shown in the top window. Instead of just flipping from red to black, the window now shows the figures speed alternating between red and white text. All figures will have a base speed in line with previous figures, but speed dials can have "sweet spots" with an extra 'Tix of speed, or "weak spots" with a 'Tix less of speed.
