Bakugan Marble Toys

December 1st, 2008 by admin

Bakugan is quickly becoming the latest hit in anime character battle games. It has been selling quickly like hotcakes in toy stores across the U.S. and Canada. Bakugan features both a cartoon show and a competitive card game with many accessories to accompany it just like Pokemon. The show can be seen on Cartoon Network and features the cards and marble characters that are portrayed as beings from another dimension.
The game components include:
• The Bakugan Battle Arena
• A Bakugan Starter Pack in red, which includes three red Bakugan marbles, three character cards, and instructions outlining how to play the game.
• Five additional Bakugan marbles and character cards in blue, green, brown, red, and grey
Each card represents a Bakugan Battle Brawler character. Each Bakugan piece consists of a marble that is rolled across the battle arena until it lands on a Bakugan card and unlocking and transforming the Bakugan piece into a particular fighting position. When two marbles from opposing players land on the same card, a simulated battle will happen. And that determines which player captures that particular card. There are numbers on the Bakagun marble pieces as well as on the cards that indicate the scoring. And a quick series of scoring calculations from the numbers on the cards and marbles determines who will win each battle and the game.

Even though the math involved in keeping score of the battle rankings was a bit beyond for a four year old kid this age it certainly wouldn't pose a problem for older kids. It wouldn’t interfere with their enjoyment of competitively shooting marbles across the battle arena game board until they landed on a card and opened up into a Bakugan character. We just have to see where this Bakugan Marble toys fad will go.
