Attacktix is one of Hasbro's new gaming properties. Players select an "army" of figures, then try to use the figures' special abilities (firing missiles, spring-loaded strike attacks, and the like) to knock down the opposing force. The games rules are set as such that the game can be played very simply and quickly between two players, or more involved battles with multiple players and more rules and turnarounds. Wicked. The entire line was put on "indefinite hiatus" in early 2007, with a great many planned and revealed pieces being put into limbo. Its return is questionable.

  • Attacktix is one of Hasbro's new gaming properties. Players select an "army" of figures, then try to use the figures' special abilities (firing missiles, spring-loaded strike attacks, and the like) to knock down the opposing force. The games rules are set as such that the game can be played very simply and quickly between two players, or more involved battles with multiple players and more rules and turnarounds. Initially, the Attacktix line consisted solely of Star Wars characters; however, Hasbro has since introduced Transformers characters to the mix -using a combination of characters from the Unicron Trilogy and Generation One series, even dipping into Universe and a few unique creations, plus recently added heroes and villains from Marvel Comics. Most strikingly, the Attacktix line featured a "Intergalactic Showdown" crossover pack, pitting Transformers characters AGAINST Star Wars characters for utter supremacy of the Male Action market. Marvel Comics characters soon got their own assortments as well. Most of the pieces are available in randomized, blind-packed Booster sets. Originally these came three to a pack, but with the addition of Transformers, the sets were reduced to cheaper two-packs. The Booster-pack figures are (somewhat misleadingly) rated "Rare" and "Super Rare": each pack contains one of each, but there are twice as many "Super Rare" pieces in an assortment as there are "Rares". All of the Attacktix characters are compatible and you can use multiples of any one; you can have a team consisting of Yoda, Ransack and Spider-Man if you wish, or nothing but multiple Decepticlones. Wicked. The entire line was put on "indefinite hiatus" in early 2007, with a great many planned and revealed pieces being put into limbo. Its return is questionable.
