Bakugan 7 in 1 Maxus Dragonoid
This Christmas jump into the buying frenzy surrounding SpinMaster's Bakugan 7 in 1 Maxus Dragoniod. The Bakugan 7 in 1 Maxus Dragoniod is one of the Hottest Top 10 Christmas Toys this year! Answer the call to brawl and decide the fate of the galaxy.
Get In On the Bakugan Craze
For those who are unfamiliar, Bakugan is an inventive strategy game based on the
popular anime TV series, "Bakugan: Battle Brawlers." It pits a variety of
"Bakugan warriors" against each other for points.
The Bakugan themselves are magnetic, spring-loaded marbles that -- when exposed to a metal "gate card" -- burst open to reveal a fearsome warrior.
The mission of the Bakugan strategy game is to capture the opponent's metal gate cards. This is achieved by rolling your Bakugan warriors onto these cards and doing battle with defending enemy Bakugan. The game involves a surprising amount of strategy, and features various tactical cards and trap pieces that help protect your Bakugan warriors.
Room
for the Imagination
This game combines skill (aiming your Bakugan) with strategy (placement of the
cards). Players also enjoy the way the warriors pop open on the magnetic cards
-- although sometimes they do it even when they don't land on the cards. Players
unfamiliar with the TV show, may feel a little lost at first in the world of
Bakugan. But with the help of the colorful, animated Bakugan Web site, they will
get what the game is about and how to play.
Even without the official strategy game, Bakugan toys are enjoyable and can be played with like regular action figures. Fans of the show will like role-playing as one of the various characters, such as the fiery 12-year-old leader "Dan" or the wise "Marucho."
Maxus Dragonoid Expands Your Bakugan
Collection
This particular set contains one Bakugan warrior (named Neo Dragonoid) and six
Bakugan traps (Grakas Hound, Dark Hound, Grafias, Brachium, Spitarm and
SpyderFencer.) These pieces can be combined together to form the massive Maxus
Dragonoid monster. The transformation process is a bit complicated, but the set
includes clear instructions that make assembly easy. The assembled Dragonoid is
a unique toy, although a bit unwieldy -- if not positioned correctly, he will
easily fall down.
Each of the seven Bakugan that compose Dragonoid can be used individually in the strategy game. Avid players will be happy to know that this set also includes a special ability card, which will come in handy when you're devising a strategy to topple your enemy. Just keep in mind that, in order to play Bakugan properly, you'll need several other Bakugan marbles/cards that are not included in this package. Kids who are new to Bakugan might be better off with one of the various starter packs.
What's in the Box
One Bakugan warrior, 6 Bakugan traps, ability card and metal gate card.
Maxus Dragonoid disassembles into smaller Bakugan that
can be used in the official strategy game.
