My boys love the show and watch it regularly. I have already purchased the entire season from a legitimate download store months ago, so I dislike the fact that The entire season will cost $30 list to buy on 3 separate DVDs.
The entire season should be available for $20 list, preferably less. The producers appear to be delivering customers to the legal download stores. Good news for the download services, less so for DVD retailers.

“Bakugan Battle Brawlers” seems to be another one of your garden variety anime series where creepy creatures emerge out of trading cards (i.e. “Yu-Gi-Oh GX” and “Duel Masters”, two shows that were on Cartoon Network previously). This show, however, is a little different. Yes, the show has kids throwing down trading cards with monsters and things printed on them, but also, they toss tiny plastic balls that pop out into small creature forms, and when it’s battle time, look out !
Join Dan and his friends as they travel into a parallel universe and try to save the world from destruction in five action-packed episodes on this DVD. Plus, as a neat bonus, there’s an exclusive Bakugan trading card enclosed with the DVD.
Whether you’re watching the series, playing the game yourself, or both, you’ll know there’s going to be a sweet battle coming your way ! Watch new episodes on Cartoon Network’s “Dynamite Action Squad” on Saturday mornings and look for “Bakugan Battle Brawlers: Vol. 2″ coming soon.
