Bakugan Toys
Based on the game from a popular anime TV series, Bakugan toys are becoming a must have for children all over the world. They were first distributed in Japan, and haven’t gained enough popularity in the USA and Canada just yet for them to become a household name like Pokemon, Yugioh, and Mario. However, Bakugan toys are quickly gaining ground, and have already made their place on several “Hottest Toys of the Year” lists. Since they haven’t been around for years, parents may not have a clue what their child is talking about when they begin to ask for Bakugan toys. The name itself may seem a little scary, so read on to find out more about this hot new toy line.
Bakugan toys are modeled around the television show of the same name. It the series, the children battle with their Bakugan toys. They typically consist of marbles that morph into characters and cards that are used during the game play. Each character has its own attribute, color, and G power which will assist it in the battles of the Bakugan toys. Series 2 has recently been released that includes even more characters to play with.
To play the game, only a few Bakugan toys are needed. A Bakugan Starter Pack will help you get into playing the game, and you can always purchase the other accessories to strength your battling abilities. The game is played very similar to the way it is done in the show. It is considered a trading card game, while a bit of marbles mixed in. You begin the game by shooting your Bakugan toy marbles in sphere mode. When two Backugan toys land on the same card, the pair must battle.
Total G Power decides who wins in each battle, which is why it is important to have a variety of Bakugan toys. Having the highest G powers possible will allow you to win almost every battle you face. Game play continues until one player has captured all the cards. After the score is tallied, the person with the most Holo Secret Points (HSP) is the champion. Bakugan toys are often battled in an arena, but you can use any flat surface.
Though it may seem hard to a beginner, especially if they don’t even know what Bakugan toys are, but the game is actually quite entertaining once you get the hang of it. It is basically the next generation in anime style toys, following the likes of Pokemon and Yugioh. What makes Bakugan toys stand out, however, is that the game in which they are used is very similar to the one played in the show of the same name. Pokemon creators couldn’t come close to what Bakugan toys can in terms of similarity between the show and the real life game.
Bakugan toys are becoming the next big thing, so do not be surprised when your child starts begging you for a “Juggernoid Translucent Preyos,” or any other jumble of words. They are actually talking about Bakugan toys, one of the hottest toy lines of the year.
