DVD Give-Away: Cartoon Network’s "Bakugan, Vol. 1"

by Jane Boursaw on September 15th, 2008

Today’s featured DVD in Jane’s September Contest Slam is Bakugan Battle Brawlers, Vol. 1.

THE DVD: This is one of the many cross-media offerings these days, a cartoon adaptation of a strategy game from Sega Toys and Spin Master. Dan Kuso and his five cyber friends were playing Bakugan when game cards fell from the sky. Using a combo of cards and special marbles that turn into monsters, the team fights duels and wins points.

Dan and his buddies figure out that Bakugan monsters have lives in the dimension of Vestroia. But the mysterious gamer Masquerade is destroying the monsters they defeat by sending them to the Doom Dimension.

More after the jump, including contest details…

My son and I have been watching this on Cartoon Network, and we both agree it’s a cross between Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh! To me, Dan looks like a lot of the other anime characters on TV — spiky hair, headband, awesome moves.

If you have fans of anime or the original Bakugan game in your life, they’ll probably love this DVD, which includes 5 episodes: The Battle Begins, The Masquerade Ball, A Feud between Friends, Dan and Drago, and Runo Rules! The DVD Also includes an exclusive trading card.

THE GIVE-AWAY: I have one Bakugan: Battle Brawlers, Vol. 1 to give away. To enter the contest, simply leave a comment on this post by midnight on Saturday, Sept. 20, 2008. Be sure to include a valid email address. A winner will be drawn randomly. I’ll email the winner for their snail-mail address after the contest ends. Good luck!
