Bakugan seem to have been all the rage over the last few years. We can thank the anime series of the same name that blasted onto our TV screens in 2007 for that. This cartoon follows a group of children called the battle brawlers, who control the Bakugan creatures through various battles. The toy range centres around Bakugan balls that represent the creatures from the show. These balls form part of a game along with various cards. Some of the cards are metallic and when the balls land on them their magnetic innards make them spring open to reveal the hidden creature. When two Bakugans pop open on the same card a battle is deemed to have taken place. The winner is determined by the scores each player accumulates via the points attached to both the creature and card.

As well as a huge range of Bakugan creatures to choose from, the Bakugan range includes mats to play on, launchers to roll the balls with, video games to interact with as well as racks, tins and cases to store the toys in. If you are trying to buy a toy for a child new to Bakugan, you should concentrate on getting a selection of the balls and accompanying cards so they can learn how to play the game. Random Bakugan are allocated to the more economically priced packs called Booster, Starter and Battle, containing one, three and six balls respectively. If you child knows the name of a group of specific creatures that they want you can also buy these individually but they will probably cost you a bit more money. Children seem to have favourites based on one of the many colours, designs and names available.

Once they have a collection of Bakugan toys to play with, they will need to master the skill and strategy of the game. Strategy comes in the form of how the cards are laid out for game play and skill is determined by how well they roll the balls to their desired targets. Many children, however, enjoy Bakugan without ever playing the game. They marvel at the auto transforming ability of these balls to suddenly become mini action figures. They can close them up and watch them pop open incessantly for hours. They can also enjoy some mini battles by play acting with a group of these toys. For an extra bit of fun, buy them one of the super sized Deka balls. These are no longer pocket sized options as they are 10cm tall once popped open, but are quite rare and so very popular amongst Bakugan crazed fans.
