Transformers Attacktix Series 1 Spoilers - Megatron (Vehicle)

MEGATRON (VEHICLE)
#TF1-17



ATTACKTIX CLASS: Leader
TRANSFORMERS CLASS: Decepticon
POINT VALUE: 30
BASE SPEED: 8
BASE: Medium
SPECIAL POWER: Transform (Megatron)
ATTACK TYPE: Shooter (Small Missile)

Day Three of Transformers Attacktix Spoilers brings us a new Special Power: TRANSFORM. Transform will allow you to bring the alternate form of your figure into play. Megatron as the jet can bring the robot form Megatron into play (the Showdown version, too)! A 30 point leader with a small weapon may look below average, but its the Special Power that makes the figure. Figures starting in vehicle form will have a very good chance at transforming after falling to an opponent. I can't wait to see more vehicle figures as the series grows.

Be sure to check out Web of Webhead for Star Wars Attacktix Series 4 Spoilers - featuring Admiral Ackbar and Grand Moff Tarkin!

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.
