Why Do Kids Love Bakugan Toys?

Based on the game from a popular anime TV series, Bakugan is becoming a must have for children all over the world. They were first distributed in Japan, and are quickly gaining ground to become the "Hottest Toys of the Year." Since they haven't been around long, parents may not have a clue what their child is talking about when they begin to ask for them.

Bakugan is modeled around the television show of the same name. In the series, the children battle with Bakugan cards and marbles that morph into characters. Each character has its own attribute, color, and G power which determines the winner. Series 2 has recently been released that includes even more characters to play with.

For kids to play the game, only a few Battle Brawlers are needed. The game is played very similar to the way it is done in the show. You begin the game by shooting your Bakugan marbles in sphere mode. When two marbles 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 game pieces. 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. The game is quite entertaining once you get the hang of it and the kids love it.

Bakugan is 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.
