- Finally, the proper video for Bakugan which took WAAAAAY too long to come out!Does it measure up to the original toys, or is it a load of hooey?
...And reuploaded due to an export issue that censored poor Drago.
More Bakugan Battle Planet reviews! • Bakugan Battle Planet
Great review, holy cow! Getting Ultras to flip consistently does take a great deal of practice. Putting in enough straight forward momentum on the roll has been the key, for me.
Hey how's it going?
Actually now that I think about it the new Dragonoid does look a lot like Leonidas! That information oddly makes me like him a lot more because I really wanted them to make Leonidas!

Brazil 🇧🇷
I’m still waiting for Leonidas after all these years lol

Yessssss
Love your thoughts on Bakugan. Spin Master did leave a bad taste when they sued Mecard. I can’t wait to hear what you think about the TCG. Also, you used my Beyblade video thumbnail in this video. Senpai noticed me XD
Hi I love your channel!!!!!!
Hi JOJO!!
I searched up Mecard, lol i can see why they sued them, but i dont think they should have. Its more similar to Transformer toys and yet hasbro doesnt care.
This is probably the best review I’ve seen for the new series, thank you for stating so many points of the I’ve been thinking about regarding Battle Planet!
How DARE you call our beautiful curvy boi Thiccanoid ugly?
I agree with most of your points, although I've been following convos on discord about the Anime, and it seems we may differ in opinion on how good vs bad it is, but I'll save those comments for when that part comes out.
Crazy to think I've been subbed for 8 years now. It's good to have Bakugan videos back.
Lets see if dont floop as Redakai
The new dragonoid is so thicc because as as a kid i loved the series and the toys so I bought a NEW dragonoid I love him sure he is a little thicc but that is what makes him beautiful
@@zeropelli7026 The original had a pretty sexy voice tbf
There is choncc turtoniom
There seems to be some sort of misconception. The original Bakugan was NOT unsuccessful in Japan. In fact the reason there’s even two seasons to begin with is because the Tv show was popular enough for it to get picked up for a second season. The toys on the other hand were not as popular because in Japan they couldn’t time the toy releases with the show. The reason New Vestroia didn’t air in Japan until later was because they wanted to wait until all the bakugan were ready to sell so they could time the release with the show.
That doesn't make much sense. If the show was popular in Japan, how come Mechtanium Surge still hasn't been released there? The first we heard about a second season of Bakugan came from Canada, not Japan: www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-09-25/26-bakugan-new-vestroia-episodes-planned-for-spring
Shows like Bakugan only end because they're not making money. There's no 2 year gap between seasons and products for Buddyfight, Yu-Gi-Oh!, etc. Duel Masters and Battle Spirits have had periods where there wasn't any new anime for a while, but the card games went unaffected. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe there was new merch rolling out in Japan for Bakugan between the end of S1 in 2008 and the start of S2 in 2010.
I Miss Bionix Mechtanium surge actually was fully dubbed in Japanese and there's Japanese toys that exist for the show meaning that it was initially planned for release. Once again like the original series, Gundalian invaders the TV show actually was doing quite well but the toys were not selling very well likely because they released almost every single toy for the show at once. During this time however Sega toys probably noticed that Bakutech toys were selling fairly well in Japan (likely because of the help from publication giant corocoro who was in charge of the manga) and decided to put their efforts into Bakutech which led to anime adaptation of the bakutech manga. Bakutech was fairly successful in Japan which is why bakugan lasted an extra 3 years in Japan, however in 2014 Sega Toys boys division saw huge losses and the bakugan line which had been declining in popularity since late 2013 was canceled. In 2015 Sega toys boys division was closed entirely.
@@indagoman648 I'm aware that Mechtanium Surge was produced in Japanese (and that version is floating around because the Chinese dub is based on it), but doesn't that just prove my point further?
If the show was popular, why didn't they just air MS on Kids Station or dump it on a streaming service? Instead, it still hasn't been released there years later. Bakugan's time slot then got replaced by Zoobles, with Bakutech relegated to 5-minute shorts in Oha! Coro.
@@indagoman648 that Is, Bakugan toys never charmed well the Japanese, apparently that canadian toy, even with a Japanese company focusing the product to japaneses, Was innefective. Is normal that western_japanese Co production tend to fail, as Monsuno, Spectrobes, Oban Star Racers etc
I Miss Bionix the Japanese still don’t even want to get into streaming and certainly were not going to get into in 2012 lol. The toys are really what dictate what show is airing and while the toy sales of GI were not selling well enough compared to the bakutech toys. It’s not that the toys were “failing” per-say rather that Sega saw an opportunity to focus on a much bigger market. To my original point the problem with the original show wasn’t even necessarily that bakugan weren’t selling well. Hell the fact that the TV show exists to begin with is because the original game sold well enough in Japan to warrant it. The real issue is that at some point the toys weren’t even available for people to buy. When The bakugan like blade Tigrera and storm skyress weren’t even in the original Japanese because they weren’t produced by the time the show was over. The actual show itself however was decently successful in Japan and the game probably would have been too if the releases of the toys had been lined up with the show.
Wait, Leonidas was suposed to be a real Bakugan?! I thought he was just an OC from the Ps2 game
CNT, It is an OC, but he gotten so popular that people wanted him to be a toy, and we never got him, the only way to obtain Leonidas, is to either by a Darkus Dragonoid core and paint it in Leonidas's color layout, or custom paint one of the following G1 Bakugan, Viper Helios, Rubanoid, or Helios MKII.
Why does it have to be a darkus dragonoid?
Its not just on the PS2 okay
@@NovexusNui777 i have him! it was a ds game promo!
@@grantflippin7808 wait... WHAT?!
FINALLY! I've been waiting for this since the leaks came out!
i still really like bakugan. I really really like the mechanic of how it just opens up. Super cool
Aw crap, seeing that Dharak at 6:29 made me go dig out my own. Nostalgia hitting me like a truck.
I had a meagre collection of only about 15, but I treasured them and quite frankly, it's cool that they're bringing it back. If they weren't so expensive I'd probably have bought quite a few already.
Brings back so much childhood memories
Jason Chen me too man me too 😌
Y'all I'm beyond excited. I'm too old to be excited about this stuff but I'm excited. When I was younger, I thrived on Bakugan. It wasn't the show. It wasn't the game itself. It was just the bakugan. I loved the design aspect of them and when the series ended, I was definitely heartbroken (although the bakutech, which I have a few of, are veryyy nice). It was all about design aspect and I still have all of my bakugan from when I was younger. The new ones, while it's agreeable that them not being perfectly ball-shaped is not the greatest, look amazing to me. Their designs seem so much better than the old ones. Not like I don't love the old ones, but some of those designs were too simple. Here, they certainly seem to thrive. That's what I loved about some of the last bakugan they designed for the originals. They had spicy designs. Dharak, for example. The one that was actually dragon-like for once that's shown in the video. I really liked that design. It's true, many of them required too many steps to fully get into their transformed mode, but some of that was what made them cool. The idea that there's a checklist for them is great because I know I'll want them all :)
Dude. I was broken when the original disappeared in America but you’ve given me hope for the new one
I KNEW I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE WHO THOUGHT THE NEW DRAGO LOOKED LIKE LEONIDAS!!!!!!!!
Yep
Aurelius Dragonoid looks like Haos Leonidas
Where is leonidas bakugan why they not make it? Its my favorites bakugan game
Ps.that is the only bakugan game i play
i never play any bakugan game ps2
And i use to have bakugan with my brother. me and my brother love the Dragonoid fire type
And i dont even know how to play it i toght you just trow it like ps2 game and its broke my bakugan
That when im a little and now i get it how to play it short of and i never buy bakugan again...maybe....nah
Bro i played the game on DS and WII
I bought a Darkus one for exactly that reason lol
It's true that the Trox looks like Pac-Man,BUT Trox Ultra looks like an actual T-Rex ,and a stuffed animal surprisingly.
I'd like some relises of the old bakugun like drago and hydronoid in the way of they originally looked
If memory serves, the original designs for most of the Bakugan aren't owned by Spinmaster, so they can't use them even if they wanted to.
Due to the Co production, SEGA toys keep some things as anime designs
I honestly love the design for Dragonoid and how it's kind of like a mix between the old design and Leonidas. Though I am excited for the Ultra Dragonoid too.
I'ma search all the local toy stores for Crystal!!!
I've wanted Pegatrix ever since I caught word of the reboot and I really agree with you, her ball design is awesome! I happened to get her (along with THICC Drago and a Darkus Fangzor) at Target yesterday (though they were hard to find at first considering there isn't a sign pointing out where they are) and I'm hoping some of my friends are looking to collect these new Bakugan so we can play together.
Also, I'm really glad I'm not the only one to think that Subterra Bolcanon looks hideous (but that doesn't mean I loathe having it in my Bakugan collection). I'd be down for some other rare variations besides Diamond, just as long as Spinmaster doesn't get crazy with it. Looking forward to your TCG Review!
To be honest, the original series aired in America in early 2008, and ended in early 2012, in which it was a 4 year period. And then 6 years later, that's when the reboot came out, at least at the near end of 2018 before the weekly continuation of 2019.
"Dragonoid
Garganoid
Hydranoid"
Me: "ImAnnoid"
*I'm annoyed*
If i throw a human, does that mean im using a humanoid?
well, we have android now
Noidnoi
I just wish they'd release it in the AU already!!!
all hail the haos boi, tamer of pegatrix
Is cutie
"Patiently awaits one day inevitable crossover between the past series and this one"
OMG U HAVE BLITZ DRAGO! I’m gonna be honest, pegatrix isn’t as good as people say it is. I just think that it looks chunky.
The second sentence you made is not true. Pac-Man is the worst design. Albeit his ultra form is great.
Ultra forms are the really Bakugan, the core ones are for TCG
@@RolandTemplar You can use either the ultras or core in the tcg. You can have all core or all ultras or mix core and ultras.
Don't talk about my girl pegatrix !
I have 3 Pyrus Blitz Dragos
I actually rather liked the "spiny thing" carrier.
The quality of your videos is INSANE!!!
keep up the ggod work🤩
Bakugans: Exist
Garganoid: **Back flips like a boss* 4:58
I like the new chunky Bakugan.
Me2
I like them big i like them chunky
That 5ds OST around 9:20 cool.
"Nani kana Nani kana"
Couldn't help it... Lol.
My ONLY problem I have with this new generation of Bakugan is just how hard it is to get the Diamond Bakugan. As a collector I really want at least one, but they are so rare that scalpers go to every store and buy all of them. So that they can resell them at a much higher price... I just hope that if they make any other special colorations or whatever, won't be like the Diamonds...
Don't worry as soon as players realize that the CARDs are more valuable than the figures, you'll have players dumping their diamonds to buy packs or no one buying them at all.
@@portalmasterry6765 Yeah, the cards are better on the TCG point of view, but as a collector those Diamonds look so good... I just want at least one, but damn they are too hard to find and too pricey to get online...
@@spmblues7719 SM will flood the game with "special" looking bakugan by the end of the year. You can bet on it! =)
Diamond supossed yo be a limited edition
@@portalmasterry6765 pray that dont make the Redakai mistake, of making new card wave, the rare cards of previous wave, to be uncommon cards of 2nd wave
Siege, Robotalian, Saurus and the Golem/Cyclops stuff were my favourite in the anime
Alongside the Dan vs Shun battle of course
I remember when the first series release as kid and one of first bakugan I got was pyrus dragonoid from a 3 pack even before I found the tv show and fell in love with the toys and I like the fact that the core bakugan look more like the old school ones
2:20 Ah, my favorites! Targenoid and Walmarus!
Hey Kohdok! This is a long shot, but do you remember the old Bakugan Buzz forums? I was active there back in the days of New Vestroia and remember talking to you on those forums quite a bit in those days. The Bakugan reboot is making me super nostalgic for those old forums and all the people who used to go there; I'm glad to see that you're still making Bakugan videos after all this time!
not only did they took away the subterras but they also took away the wind attribute too. The subterras were my favorite
When you said that the new dragonoid look like Leonidas I said that it does so I bought a darkus dragonoid to use in a video and the name of the bakugan is leonidas
I forget all the tryhard names these things had, but I remember there were a few serpent-type bakugan that I wish they'd bring back
They had simple, yet elegant designs that naturally lent themselves towards smooth, good looking marble forms(though if I remember right, the best looking one came in a cylindrical form instead of a sphere) while also having beast forms that didn't look chunky or stupid
I remember being in love with this show when I was really lil Im gonna start watching it again😂❤️
I prefer the old Bakugan. I just like it better honestly and I have some good childhood memories about it.
To be honest, the original series aired in America in early 2008, and ended in early 2012, in which it was a 4 year period. And then 6 years later, that's when the reboot came out.
Ok new drago is big chungus
Yep

People think Drago looks like Leonidas? Never really thought about that before.
same. I don't even see that many resemblence to Leonidas
@@ZakTheKaiju probably the hands, angled-up wings and backwards-facing horn...
Kohdok=super underrated
after a lot of years I now know how to play bakugan and me at 7 years old doesn't know what to do
thx for being my childhood cartoon bakugan
Altos Brontes is my favorite bakugan but I still liked the joke about its disease 😂
Man I had so many damn Bakugan.... First Dragonoid... dragonoid II.... Spin Dragonoid... Maxis Dragonoid... Hydranoid II.... Hydranoid III... Even the Nintendo DS game exclusive Naga
I NEVER KNEW I HAD A BAKUGAN (I was 6 when I got my first BAKUGAN it was a black darkus and aquas) my grandma got me 2 and I didn't even knew what they where I still have them (sry for making you read)
It’s good 👍🏻
Huh, I thought you were supposed to throw them on the ground to open them... now I know why they are broken
Hell yea my boi leonidas is still remembered
This was huge for me and my class in 4th or 5th grade and man I dont think a single kid in my school knew (including me) knew how to play the game. My school was silly we all got into the pokemon, naruto, and even chaotix but no kid ever actually learnt to play any games haha we would just role play the show. I actually ended up giving a kid a bloody nose playing naruto one day.
Kohdok: *compares leonidas to battle planet dragonoid*
Me: *eyes glow red while OSP SasterDaDudester remix plays* OMAE WA MOU SHINDERU
Cannot wait until Ultra Pegatrix comes out. Pegatrix is currently my favorite Bakugan for this new reboot.
I always thought Leonidas was made exclusivly for the first Bakugan videogame.
no, the game was packed in with a naga
wolkaiser drake I think he means he thought Leonidas was supposed to be a Bakugan found in game exclusively
@@leoptsd6832 Yep.
The new frago design looks familiar.
One thing i can say is, *Bakugan stand!* _stand_ , _CPU's 2 turn_
It's stuck in my head
RIP Subterra😢🙏
*sees old things from my childhood*
Me: I see you are a man of culture
I always liked the brown/tan toys, but we never had the money to buy many original toys :/
Was I the only one who was annoyed that they ditched gate cards and ability cards? It was a great way to add more skill and strategy to the game because you had to think about which one would help you out in a battle the most as well as creating combos.
The cores are in service of the Bakugan Ultra being better designed by having their magnet be anywhere. A fair trade-off if you ask me. Next vid might address your grievances a bit better.
Wait... Leonidas was never officially released? Son of a goat! Why not?!
Haha I laughed a lot you put your videos together awesome. I loved the gundalian invaders series they were the most beautiful Bakugan ever and I was kinda disappointed for this series but I mean I asked for a reboot so these are still cool. You gave me a lot of hope when you said they can bring back the old ones and call them classic. Thanks!
3:57 wait, why do I hear angels singing???
The funniest lines are: OH NOW IT DECIDES TO WORK
: this weird spinny thing
: TROX IS JUST FREAKIN PAC MAN
I was like, huh I wonder if this guy covered bakugan... .OH ... oh shi-
Not fair man, the bakugan doesn’t ship to Europe until April!
I like the chunky ultra they add way more detail than brawl and I miss brawl but the new ones are dope af
I haven't seen bakugan in such a long time (I was born in 2008 so I'm younger than this but I still know what this is)
Weird spinny thing? Dude i love that thing🤣
Ah yes, OG Diapernoid. How nostalgic.
I'm happy to see it back
I'm sorry can you repeat that?
Subterra was the worst attribute?
It has great looking bakugan like Gordum and the like.
Only way i could see people thinking they were bad is cause in the show they usually got shafted
There's an arrow on the bakugan, usually on the bottom. If you roll the bakugan that way, it will flip how it is supposed to.
Who else hates that its not a gate card that they stand on and that you have to roll it on its head?
man people in 2004 were creative when it came to naming their bakugan
Oh I need to show my friend who always wanted bakugan when we were kids but never managed to buy them
I think they look adorable
I forgot about Leonidas (I played Baku Gan on my wii)😊☺
8:50
Me: pohatu is that you 😏
Also Me: *see black line across his eyes* oh sorry I mistaken you for someone I know deeply sorry about that😥😥😥
The toys are still slowly being released around America’s Walmart locations last week I found all the attributes of bakugan but diamond cause diamond is pretty rare now in my area it was sold out.
I remember throwing my bakugan into his card(like in the anime) repeatedly then got destroyed
After this video,i realized that you were supposed to roll it not throw it....
LOL!
F
Subterra was actually my favourite attribute and it made me sad when they decided not to bring it back.
Least popular
It's mixed with ventus
I love the dragonoid ultra design actually bough it at entertainment
Its common practice for companies to defend their intellectual properties with law suites against possibly similar products even if they their case is shaky. They do this because if they don't demonstrate attempts to protect their own intellectual properties it may weaken their claim for future more reasonable court cases. Its not always about being a bully.
i liked the dragonoid that looked like( Skaiee, Red Dragon Commander )
It's been a while kohdok
It's been a long while
I'm happy that I found you again
Chunky Dragonoid looks kinda cute
2:18 that spidey boii has big hunch, any ways I kinda like the new drago. The first one looked like it’s head was molded from a stale piece of macaroni. Like don’t lie, you see it too XD
I remember that back in kindergarten through 1st grade kids used to bring there bakugan and battle them until the school banded bakugan because kids kept throwing there bakugan on other kids faces or stole there bakugan.
I’m glad I grew up with the og Ben 10 and bakugan
Regarding the small variety of items in the initial assortment, you've got to remember that the U.S. got OG Bakugan more than six months after Canada did. I remember walking into a Toys R Us in the summer of '07 and there were maybe 10 Bakugan blisters on the shelves, the launcher toy and the carrying case. IIRC, that was the initial wave. My guess is that after the line took off in Canada, U.S. retailers were willing to take on more items at launch. Battle Planet hasn't proven itself yet, so it's easy to see why Spin Master isn't shoving down a tonne of product right now.
Alpha Group did eventually import the Chinese Screechers Wild cartoon. Midway through last year they removed all of the web-shorts they had produced and uploaded a new English dub. I'm not sure if you're aware, but Alpha will be discontinuing Screechers Wild at the end of this month. They ended up settling the lawsuit with Spin Master either because they knew they'd lose or because the line was already seen as a failure not worth continuing to fight over.
1. Yeah, u right, spin máster always there are issues of date of relasing. 2. In Latinoamérica Mecard anime Is good popular and kids are willing to pay for them, Screechers Is only a cheaper watered down Mecard
@@RolandTemplar I can't speak to the Spanish world, but it seems like Mecard is dead in the English one. Mattel really messed up the launch. They first released season 1 in Australia and Canada in 2017, then they did a new dub of the show for the U.S. last year ... but they didn't release season 2 in Australia or Canada. We just got old toys repackaged. Now the U.S. dub has ended after 26 episodes and they're telling kids to go watch the original English version. I know there was something similar in Spanish, where it was first aired on TV in Mexico (I think?) in 2017, then got re-dubbed last year.
@@IMissBionix yep, apparently Mecard Is a very local asian product, if Bakugan make well, surely Will forget Mecard, specially for that awful series as dino Mecard and fhiat
@@IMissBionix Ghost my bad
Hey guys, I was wondering if you could answer something for me because I want your opinions on this. Will buying the new Bakugan toys be worth it? Hear me out, if this new Bakugan franchise is anything like the old one, then there will be multiple seasons where there will be new Bakugan, increased strength levels, and new gear. Think about it, in the first season in the old franchise, 450G’s was considered high, but by the time of mechtanium surge, it was basically nothing compared to the new stuff. Also, whenever new gear has been added, such as Bakugan traps, they became forgotten after the next season comes in. All I’m saying is, it really stunk when the Bakugan and gear that wanted to get when we first heard about was reduced to being outdated and weak. Bottomline, i’m concerned that all the newly released Bakugan will go through the same thing because back when the first franchise was around, I would have liked to have used my older Bakugan against the newer ones
Thank you for mentioning my point out for the case lol
Is dissapont, at least full carry Bakugan at least
Oh snap man you’ve gotta do redakai, that joke brought back too many memories
Jeez, I remember playing with these toys back in 2013.
When i started collecting the new bakugan i didnt like the size but it grew on me
BEYBLADE+POKÉMON=BAKUGAN
since a reboot was made for Bakugan, could it go on for another 4 years?
I love bakugan
Bakugan felt like it was yesterday, good times
