So what’s so special about Bakugan?
First of all, the spelling is a mystery. Especially when you don’t have it in front of you. How would you spell it? It’s a bit complicated, isn’t it? A bit intriguing. I even misspell it (backagone, bacagon, etc.). But children know exactly how to spell.
Second, everything is just addicting. The show, those “balls”, the characters. You can’t have just one. They come in many bright colors, sizes, and shapes. They open up to different characters and shapes, which look great. Most children are at least 10. You need 3 to fight.
If you ask any child in elementary school (2nd, 3rd, 4th grade and up), you will get their answer. Bakugan Battle Brawler toys are so irresistible and catching on fast, in fact they are the newest Pokémon in my opinion. And better. As well as being able to fight them yourself, flip them on the table, you can fight with your friends at recess, “they are portable” and can fit in your pocket, purse or backpack. And like Pokémon, practice math at the same time. A new, more sophisticated and higher-tech Pokémon. There are cards, “balls” or battle fighters and action figure characters. And of course a great TV show, DVD and chapter books. There is a battlefield that is great to play at home and lots of toys that come out regularly. They sell out every morning at our local Target, so the best place to buy them is online.
So what is Bakugan all about? Just tossing some plastic balls at a card and playing the game?
No! Not only, and only that … there is much more. There is a whole world of Bakugan, a whole story that goes with it. Dan and his friends are finally trying to save the earth and the parallel universe Vestroia from the Bakugan monsters, so they fight and fight to win. Dan and his young warrior friends initially thought that the cards they found and fought with were just a fun game, but the characters on the cards were Bakugan monsters with their own agenda and it has become a race to restore peace to everything. the universe.
Bakugan’s graphics are outstanding. The bold colors and designs of the characters and setting are cool and outrageous. Think fancy purples, reds, blues, and greens, alien territory, and outer space. The posters look just as impressive as the cards and the TV show. They will definitely transform your bedroom or game room.
So if you’re looking for something fun, fantastic, and a little different this year for Christmas … you’ll know what to buy. And, don’t forget about the sock fillers.
