Micro Dino

I picked up this cool clear version of Neo Trox at my local Walmart recently. Trox is green generally, but like most Bakugan, his toys can come in a variety of colors. In this cool clear plastic, it's impossible not to compare him with a  Microman or Micronaut. This is definitely a toy that I wished ad some sort of chromed weapon. There are ports where you could plug a Nanogan in, that'd be a good place for a laser gun. Trox is pretty easy to fold back up into his marble form and an all around pleasant little guy. I'm pretty glad the Mrs spotted him as he's so great. Just a simple little guy that I want to walk around a play set and have adventures with.

Exploding with Nanogan

 

My descent down the Bakugan rabbit hole continues to be a fun dive. Nanogan are a newer thing that I'm enjoying a bit. Smaller Bakugan that attach to the larger toys. They're pretty charming and cute. I appreciate the simple designs as well. I don't play the game or watch the show, but they serve a purpose there. I definitely appreciate the overall design aesthetic of Bakugan. They're original looking, but remind me a little of other toys. It's a real cool mixture of design and simplicity. Not to mention creativity. Those characters have to fit into that little ball shape and spring to life when they transform in usually one step. Such a fun and cool series of toys.
