Well here we go, i think i got it..
Basically i pinned the buttons to a "Board" and then Im applying the movement to the board itself, not the buttons, so because the buttons are pinned to the board, they go along for the ride... Give it a try, I've also added mad comments to the capx so you can see how it's all setup. The buttons are placed dynamically so you can generate them on the fly / with a function / etc, and even just pick out their sprite by setting the animation frame to the loopindex.
Hope this helps someone out there, god knows ive got enough knowledge from these forums, it's only right i give back.
