Of the themes you've listed that I've done the one thing they have in common is that they use embedded graphic or movie elements within the main time line. To use Tondemo Crisis as an example, the head is animated separately when the smoke comes out (after the zoom has happened) and then that entire element is animated rotated left/right on the main time line.
There's no action script in any of mine (other than stop, gotoAndPlay).
If you want me to send you the source Flash of any of these, then PM me.
EDIT : Yesterday's effort, Pulsar, has embedded graphics elements and significant chunks of masking using native Flash shapes. Might be worth checking that out and going with that source as a test instead?
