Bakugan
I am not sure about this toy, however, my son and his friends thinks they are great. I do like the magnetic mechanism which causes the figure to morph from a cynlinder into a creature...thats pretty cool. The only issue I have is with different dealers charging different prices for the same object. The company I used in conjuction with Amazon, seems to be the most fair ...and resonably priced (even lower than the major chains like ToysRus and Etoys).

My recommendation is...if you by Bakugan action figures, please forge ahead and purchase the holder as well. Its compact and can be dismantled to carry certain figures in a holder. Trust its better than finding yourself hurt due to one on the floor. ... Like I told my son, he is NOT getting the insurance money now! smile

BEWARE -- YOU MAY GET B2 BRAWLERS!!!!
Although the ad for the item states "styles and colors may vary," I did not expect to get "B2" Brawlers which are bigger/different from the regular Battle Brawlers. Because Amazon itself distinguishes between regular Bakugan and "B2" Bakugan, I thought I was safe ordering this item (that I would get the regular Battle Brawlers). Unfortunately, to an 8 yr. old boy, they are very different things. I am going to try and have the item replaced through Amazon Customer Service, but there is no way to know if I'll get what was advertised (and what my son wants).

Popular Toy
My daughter is in 4th grade and this is "the most popular" item around. The kids trade them at school. Some of them look pretty interesting on how the open. They open when you place them on metal or on the magnetic card. I wouldn't call them very educational, although the kids do pay attention to how powerful the numbers are on them and they learn some basic engineering when unfolding them into the character.

Too expensive
Is it my imagination, or are these toys jacked up by at least $20. I use to buy these for less than $10. We should call the manufacturer about this.

bakugan
WARNING: i have ordered this product twice and have never recieved the right color

we think when it says GBL, it might mean the color of the bakugan may vary.

other than that, my kids love it!!

Bakugan purchase
Must have for grandson. As adults we feel the 24dollars is kinda pricey for such a small toy, and the pieces are so small as to be easy to lose. Grandson does like the toy. The toy did arrtive in time frame (acrtually erlier than expected) and condition as promised. Would not be a good toy for smaller children and should not be left around "tasters" as parts are small and easy to get into a "taster' mouth.

My son loves collecting these. I bought them for only 17.99 at an online toy store yesterday.

My kids love toys playing with fantasy toys like these creatures that emerge from the marbles...so far, they have been durable.

Bakugan-Mania
MODERN DAY GAME OF MARBLES

The Bakugan-Mania is here. I had no idea what my daughter was talking about since she spoke a mile-a-minute about what the latest craze in children's toys. These items are in extremely high demand and are similar in genre to Pokemon cards, Yu-Gi-Yo, and Digimon. The characters appear to be a spin off from Japanese anime, in my perception.

What are Bakugan?

They are action figures that are morphed from small plastic marbles, based upon a television show on the Cartoon Network. Each figure comes with a metallic card that has a point value. A point value is also imprinted on the figure.

A magnetic lock in the toy is triggered to open when the figure is placed onto a metallic game card.

How do you play the game?

Each player starts out with 3 Bakugan and 3 cards. Only one care can be a special ability card. The youngest player starts. Depending upon how many players are participating (2-4), determines where the cards are placed in the arena. When a Bakugan is rolled and lands on a card, it opens.

If the Bakugan does not open, the player loses a turn.

If 2 figures land on the same card, a point total is taken to count up the power value of the Bakugan + the value of the card. The higher sum wins the card and the figure. At the end of the round, the highest total of points wins the game.

My daughter's after-school care has an Bakugan Class where children play in the afternoon. She is 7 years old but her friends who have it range from 6 to 10 years old.

This game represents a unique and revolutionary spin on the game of playing marbles. It is quite creative and superficially complex to play. However, many children are compelled to play it all over the country.

Educational value

Strangely, enough, this toy has an ACTUAL educational value by requiring the players to add up or subtract the values of each figure/card.


Safety and Caveats

Since these are essentially small marbles, caution should be exercised if you child has small siblings who may try to swallow this toy. It is too big to fit into someone's ear or nose; however the danger is accidentally swallowing it or aspiration (going into the child's airway). You should also be aware if you have pets since it may lead to a dangerous bowel obstruction if ingested/eaten by your pet.

Durability

These are relatively fragile items that require users to be careful with the moving parts. Sometimes, the mechanisms are defected or through wear and tear may not allow the action figure to open or close.

Conclusion
This toy system is, for now, one of the hottest items in the toy world. If you are actually lucky enough to find it, or willing to pay the premium, then you should strongly consider getting it. Your child will be extremely happy.

I bought this for my son's 7th birthday. He loves it, put one of the bakugan balls broke already. It still gives him hours of entertainment.

Sylvia
These Bakugan balls are the latest craze. My boys won't put them down! Just beware of all of the commands that come with the play. Your whole house will be filled with..."Bakugan Brawl...Bakugan Stand". Have fun!

Between you and me this is a piece of junk, but it occupies my sons (ages 8 and 6) for hours, so I'm not complaining.
