Transformers Attacktix Series 1 Spoilers - Starscream

STARSCREAM
#TF1-8



ATTACKTIX CLASS: Captain
TRANSFORMERS CLASS: Decepticon
POINT VALUE: 30
BASE SPEED: 6
BASE: Medium
SPECIAL POWER: Rally (Decepticon)
ATTACK TYPE: Shooter (Large Missile)

Starcream's Captain Class won't have much advantage in the first series of Transformers Attacktix, but with a large missile and a medium base, he will make most Star Wars Attacktix players feel right at home. If he falls, he should be able to resurrection a fellow Decepticon, making him work well with any Decepticon-based team. Whenever the Dark Side and the Decepticons decide to team up, be sure to add an ARC Pilot to the mix, giving yourself a chance to take a free attack with Starscream.

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.
