Product Description

Amazon.com Review

The Bakugan Launcher is an optional accessory that adds excitement to the game Bakugan Battle Brawlers. Based on the popular and fun anime TV series of the same name, this strategic game that pits a variety of "Bakugan warriors" against each other for points. Kids ages four and above will love using the launcher to help them score points by shooting their Bakugan warriors onto magnetic cards, where the plastic spheres burst open to reveal the fearsome warrior apparatus inside. It's the same launcher used by "Dan," the hero of the TV show, so fans of the show will get a special thrill from using it!



The Bakugan Launcher sends your Bakugan flying with three shooting modes. View larger.


There are many colors and varieties of Bakugan to collect. View larger.
What We Think

Fun Factor:

Durability:

(what this means)

The Good: Wide variety of Bakugan make them fun for kids to trade and collect

The Bad: No instructions with some toys

In a Nutshell: Clever and exciting interactive game that kids will enjoy even if they're not familiar with the TV show
At a Glance

Ages: 6 to 12
NOTE: The Bakugan Launcher includes a single launcher with a wrist strap. Bakugan warriors are sold separately.

Ready, Aim, Fire!
There are no instructions with the optional Bakugan Launcher, which is made of sturdy, lightweight plastic. But it's a straightforward accessory: simply load the Bakugan and fire away! There are two additional Bakugan compartments on either side of the launcher. The wrist strap is a great accessory that your child can use to help steady the launcher as he fires.

Exciting Magnetic Action
The Bakugan Launcher has three shooting modes ("curve," "angle, and "distance"). It holds three Bakugan, and straps to your child's wrist -- just like Dan's! Though kids can roll the Bakugan just like marbles, the Launcher adds an element of excitement to their Bakugan battles.

Room for the Imagination
Though we thought the launcher was a great accessory, but our attempts to fire it proved somewhat difficult. Instructions would have helped. If you and your child can figure it out how to fire it effectively -- especially how to use the three shooting modes -- the launcher is sure to increase their enjoyment of the game and add variety to their play.


What's in the Box
One Bakugan Launcher.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bakugan Launcher!, March 23, 2008
By O.F.S. (Brooklyn, N.Y.) - See all my reviews
Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Bakugan Launcher (Toy)
This Bakugan Launcher is the exact same one that Dan uses, so it makes this cool! That's beside the point. According to my son the launcher is awesome! There are only two drags about this toy. One, you can only have 2 Bakugan in the launcher at one time. Two, it takes forever to launch a Bakugan! First, you have to open the Bakugan holders, take the Bakugan out, put it in the launching part, set the way you want your Bakugan to shoot out, and finally pull back the trigger and launch your Bakugan! Overall this is just anccessorie, you don't need this to play the game. But it does make the game more fun!

3.0 out of 5 stars Needs some basic instructions, August 3, 2008
By snoopygirl (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews
Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars Educational:2.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Bakugan Launcher (Toy)
My 6yo son bought this today with a gift card he received for his birthday. We got it at Target, and I thought $15 was a little much to spend on a toy like this. After getting it out of the package, there were no directions at all, not even something basic on how to use the item. Right away my ds had problems, and I wasn't much better at getting it to launch. I came here to see the reviews on the product and my heart sank (Should have told ds to wait so we could check reviews before purchasing).

However, I must say the reviews here are such a great resource. Because a previous reviewer recommended watching a YouTube video on how to use the launcher. This was very helpful in two ways: first, you pull part of the launcher tube forward and place the bakugan into the hole in the top side of the tube. Second, the launcher can come off the wrist band. One YouTube video recommended placing the launcher on the floor/table, which makes the wrist band kind of useless. My son is now enjoying the launcher much more, although it still could be so much better in my opinion.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do NOT buy this toy, it just doesn't work, November 7, 2008
By P. Ryan (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Bakugan Launcher (Toy)
My 8 yr old son got this for his birthday. He was excited at first because he had seen it on TV and is a big Bakugan fan. But after a while he was just bummed out about how bad this toy is.

Firstly, the toy holds two Bakugan, however the little plastic doors unsnap and fall off very easily while you're using it.

To load the device, you take either Bakugan out of its little holder (carefully so the doors don't fall off). You then slide the barrel forward to reveal a hole in the top, which you are supposed to drop the Bakugan in. This sliding mech. jams very easily as it's very flimsy and it doesn't come out parallel. After wrestling with this a few times he did what any kid would do and just dropped the Bakugan down the barrel. Whichever way you load the Bakugan in, if you angle the unit downward, the Bakugan will often just drop out the front and fall onto the floor.

The package says the toy has three modes, curve angled or straight. These are determined by two arms which have "hands" at the end of them. When the arms are in the forward position these hands are meant to interfere with the flight of the Bakugan as it launches. They sure do interfere, often causing it to just fall out the front, or bounce back into the barrel, but if you angle them just right or out of the way, then the Bakugan will come out. For some strange reason these arms fold back and lock into place. They can then be deployed forward again by pressing a button and they spring forward. Of course if they'd put this effort into the launching process...

The launching process, (which is what this toy is supposed to do, after all) is pathetic. If you have managed to get the Bakugan to stay inside the barrel, then you retract a small sliding button backward. The button is under spring tension, but it doesn't lock into place, it just works like a rubber band being pulled back, only harder to use. There is no way to lock the mechanism back and aim the unit. Launching is a process of perhaps folding the arms back, flicking them forward (not sure why) and then totally separately pulling back on the slider while trying to stop the Bakugan from falling out the front of the unit, attempting to aim while holding your hand on the slider and then releasing the whole thing at once. Naturally, if it's on your wrist your arm wobbles all over and the Bakugan dribbles out the barrel nowhere where you wanted it. And you have a hand cramp from trying to hold it all together and still while you tried to aim. If they'd spent less effort on getting the useless arms to lock back and used that effort having the launching process lock back and fire with a button like every other toy known to man and child, it might make some sense.

And if you want to put it on your wrist, the strap is a piece of thin nylon webbing with holes melted into it with a soldering iron in some sweat shop in China. No grommets or edging, just rough, melted holes.

Don't disappoint your kids with this one, even if they are huge Bakugan fans. And certainly don't reward the manufacturer by buying this poorly designed, poorly implemented piece of not-so-distant-future landfill.

While it is sort of cool to wear on your wrist, the brawlers barely trickle out of the launcher, so it is no good for actual brawling. Find it used somewhere else..
