I'm really impressed by the level of control demonstrated in the video, actually.
Battle Strikers Discussion
Zellers has the tournament set on sale for $10 off. I'd be slightly interested if I didn't have all the money I have signed off towards other things.
Sorry if this has been asked a million times, but are these for sale at major retailers such as toys r us, Wal-Mart, Target, etc..?
yeah that sounds good, but maybe on junior 10-15 then adult 16 and up?
Any plans for a launcher that wouldn't require batteries? I'm under the impression that the powered motor provides the Strikers with more RPM, and I myself bought a bunch of rechargeable batteries for them, so I'm not all too worried, but I can imagine some folks not wanting to have to replace batteries every now and again with lost functionality in the meantime.
Also, I've enjoyed putting the batteries in backward to get the launcher to send the Strikers off in left-spin. For fun, I'm planning on incorporating a switch to choose between left/right spin, but I was wondering if that sort of idea had been brought up before as being worth the effort.

By including an internal lithium ion battery the cost per unit would go up.
Hey, just thought I'd say that I haven't seen any Strikers in any of my local Wal Marts. Thought I'd throw that out there. However, Target seems to keep them well in stock, and they sell fairly.

DO NOT PUT THE BATTERIES IN INCORRECTLY!!! You could cause very serious damage to your Launcher and yourself by doing this!!
That being said, our tops are not designed to spin counter-clockwise. You should not do this.

Yes, as much as we would love to do it.
I don't see what the big huff over batteries is. I can buy 4 perfectly good AA batteries for $1 CDN. If you know that you're going to need spare batteries, buy extra.
How about charging docks for the launchers?
Hmm I see. What about kinetic powered launchers? Like you charge it by rapidly pressing the button then when you want to launch, hold it. I have a torch that works like that lol.
How about a charging dock accessory? One that you have to buy seperately.

The cost would go up about £5 - £6 would it?
I don't know the exact cost, but it's irrelevant anyway ...
Going to have to clean up this thread soon, please keep the questions and comments relevant, thanks!

Just looked at the Argos website and to my surprise I saw Battle Strikers. I wasn't even aware they were selling them in the UK yet...
They are so cheap, I thought they'd be more expensive. The only thing that puts me off them is the rounded bulky shape they've got going on. I'm sure they perform well though.

so Brad, if your saying the new series your working on coming out is going to be a lot better and such does that mean the ones out are right now are going to be uncompatible with the new ones and are they going to be out classed??
