And it's got a Saturday morning cartoon. They don't do as much as they used too.
And all the stadiums are horribly imbalanced [so kids can't even really use more than half of the blades from the show if they want to win].
I can see, for most kids, these getting old fast, unfortunately [as a possibility, mind you].
HMS died in the US because it was put on hiatus in Japan. Second, if you think 'saturday morning cartoons' don't do as much as they used to, can you explain why Bakugan has done as well as it has? And as for the stadiums... Well honestly Hasbro has never made a terribly balanced stadium in recent memory. I remember having one that was almost entirely flat, with a little plateau in the center so they don't stay there...
