16bit.com has managed to get ahold of the first images of the next upcoming Attacktix Starter Set. It comes with 4 figures, like the previously released set. Here's a rundown of who is included, and what details are known:
G1 Optimus Prime
Weapon: G1 Rifle that fires a projectile
G1 Megatron
Weapon: G1 Arm Cannon that fires a projectile
Energon Landquake
Weapon: His claw arm shoots (but still remains attached to figure), much like previously released Skyblast w/ spear
LOC Skywarp
Weapon: Can not really see it, but it is either a projectile launcher or a flip out blade.
Click here to see the new set in all its glory!

That Prime & Megs looks pretty spiffy.
Though the header for a second made me think that they were just throwing the Comicon exclusive LOC Skywarp in as a bonus. How about just changing it to just Skywarp too keep others from freaking out like I did over their rarity becoming common for an advertising gimmick?

I suppose you're right, LOC is not the correct terminology, but neither is Cybertron Skywarp.
I guess one might have to say that it is a repaint of the Cybertron Starscream version, in Skywarp colors.

For what they are they look pretty good. These might see some shelf life, but I doubt they'll get opened.
I'm not really a fan of this line, but I did like the G1 molds we say a while back.

When Hasbro posted it's list of toys they produced, they called the Micro class Skywarp from SDCC a "Universe" toy, which means this Attacktix is would be of Universe Legends Skywarp!
Anyways, I like it. I don't know what Landquake is doing in there, but whatever... G1 makes this cool, especially to those of us trying to make an Attacktix chess set. It would be cheaper to make than buying the official chess set.
