Battle Strikers hit second gear

Series 2.0 of Mega Brands’ Battle Strikers is now in the shops, offering even more fast-spinning mayhem for kids of six and up.

Tweaks have been made to the design of the Strikers themselves, with the emphasis on aerodynamics (important when they are spinning at 6,500 rpm!). All of the Strikers now have a lower centre of gravity, which makes them more stable and able to spin for longer.

More performance enhancement comes in the form of improved magnetic control and the new Strikers are all based on powerful creatures, like Komodo and Cobra. Mix and match the weapon, booster and tip sections to influence your Striker’s attack, defence and control capabilities.

Individual Battle Strikers are available at around £4.99 each, with a Starter Pack (including a Striker, a Turbo Launcher and a Finger Controller) priced around £9.99.

The new-look Knockout Arena is priced around £9.99, while a Tournament Set, with two Strikers, Launchers, Arena and Controllers, is around £24.99.
