looks like one of those evil bakugan from season1 the haos evil girl with the big bottom, forgot her name, one of the two sisters, but looks tacky

Oi, don't dis Rabeeder by comparing her to this. I'm still praying on getting her someday, but not like this!

Just scored an old Pyrus Fortress, 680g's (As in, the one what was the level-cap before Clayf came out) Brand new at Toys 'R Us, of all places! Toys 'R Us may have higher prices, but they have better selection as a result. The thing is, I'd been to this TRU before and they didn't have these, they must have dug out a box from back-stock, or something.

Yes, there has...DON'T LAUGH! IT WAS MY FIRST POST HERE! LOLhttp://www.forum.bakuganbuzz.com/index.php?topic=4088.msg70280#msg70280

Sorry, but I'm not convinced. Any official links? If it really does work the way you say it, then it's poorly worded and Spinmaster should probably fire the editor who let that slip by.

That is official... The owner of this Forum posted it there, and ask anyone, "Flowing Waters" is not used that way, and is a fail Imho.

Well, I didn't see it mentioned in the FAQ's, but it's not really worth pursuing. Still, It can be used to recycle your hammer, dumping your bait and Lightning Storm to use your Hammer again, now buffed by 50 points!

Sorry, but I'm not convinced. Any official links? And what indicates that it would work the way you say it? If it really does work the way you say it, then it's poorly worded and Spinmaster should probably fire the editor who let that slip by.

That is not how "Flowing Waters" works...it lets you SWITCH them. Not toss 'em in thar for an easy win...

Well, the language of the card says "Swap any number of Bakugan and Gate Cards from your unused pile to your used pile, which seems to indicate a one-way street. Had it been "Swap any number of Bakugan and Gate Cards in your unused pile with an equal number of them from your used pile", there would be no doubt. Has there been an errata or ruling on this, or something?

[KohdokMember]

Man, this bounding box is messed up. I can't see what I'm typing! Oh well, on to examples/The Haos strategy: This is the most basic and well-known example of Hammer, Bait, and Win. You win your own gate card, lose the second card on purpose, then combine Haos2 with a "Duck and Win"-style card on the final turn for a 3-0 victory. Undoubtedly the cheapest shutout victory in the game.The Aquos strategy: Again, win the first gate card and lose the second one. However, simply play "Flowing Waters" after losing with your duck to dump your other two gate cards into your used pile and win. Undoubtedly the cheapest win in the game.Recycle the Hammer: cards like Runo's Throw, Ventus, and Lock and Load let you re-use your hammer multiple times to pound away at your enemy with vicious combosThe Subterra strategy: Foul up your opponent's strategies by tossing your bait out and then using Julie's Throw to draw out your opponent's better Bakugan and Cards to get them out of your way, whether you win or not.I'm still trying to come up with Ventus, Pyrus, and Darkus strategies that work that way. Still, I think my theory has merit.

Alrighty, though to let you know I don't count on G's for strategy.Ventus Percival 720 g's: New Vestroia Starter Pack from Target in Hurst, TX.Ventus Bakucore Moskeeto 700g's: First Bakucore Starter Pack I ever saw at a DFW Wal-Mart (Can't rememebr Which one)Darkus G-power Change Elfin 700/620/200g's: Big Lots in Arlington, TX.Aquos Dual Elfin 690g's: Booster Pack at Arlington, TX Wal-Mart.Dual Hydranoid 650g's: Masquerade Pack from Hurst, TX Wal-Mart. (Oddly, Alpha H. was only 600)Nothing above 720 so far, as I think those that could have it get cleaned out of the stores I go to (I have yet to see a Haos Abisomega in person!)

[KohdokMember]

Arlington, and I'd join in. Heck, I go to UTA so I'm old enough to chaperone… *dismal groan*

[KohdokMember]

Hmm… I'd have done something trickier for Preyas or Hydranoid. The thing is, all the other Brawler's Bakugan have gotten something other than the norm for their card text, like Gorem and Skyress. I challenge you to make some better text!That, and you're misspelling "Bonus".

[KohdokMember]

You take my advice, I see?

[KohdokMember]

Sorry, I'm no miracle worker. I'm good, but I'm not great and I'm certainly not epic. There are tons of artists out there that are better than me, but it seems coincidental that none of them happen to work for Spinmaster.Anyway, here's a quick Centorrior practice. I've never drawn a horse before so his actual body would be pretty rough.

[KohdokMember]

Uhhh, sure. Whoever designs the Bakugan.

Yeah, I still get what you mean. I didn't mean identical copies of those bakugan, but the style of mechanism they could consider using. Maybe I should have explained that better...

[KohdokMember]

I would have to say Ingram's marble resembles Oberus' marble more. But yeah same concept.And a better example of the re-use of marble forms is Skyress and Boost Ingram.

fix'd Personally, I don't really see how SS looks like Skyress, unless you go in to the mechanism stuff again.And I see the Rabeeder now, but it looks more like El Condor. Druman could easily be an Apollonir with some design changes, although SM would get some backlash from the fans if designs get extremely close.

You mean Sega Toys, right? Spinmaster is just a distributor.

[KohdokMember]

I would have to say Ingram's marble resembles Oberus' marble more. But yeah same concept.And a better example of the re-use of marble forms is Skyress, Storm Skyress, and Boost Ingram.

See, there are a ton of examples of reused mechanics in the bakugan world. I didn't consider Oberus an option, but it sure is!

[KohdokMember]

I don't see half of those… but directly reusing a design would be a bad (and lazy) move on SM's part. No offense, but I don't even see how half of those bakugan would look like Naga's gatekeepers. Of course, I haven't seen the old episodes in a while…

Allow me to illustrate. I'm not saying that the molds are exactly the same, I'm saying they use a similar build and engineering. If we compare harpus and Ingram:...we see that they both use a design where their wings (however many there may be) are hinged in the back
