Bakugan fans will be thrilled, and R/C fans will be climbing the walls to get this stuff.
Spin Master’s 2009 Line-Up Delivers Maximum Play Value for Parents and Kids Toronto, ON – February 12, 2009 – Spin Master Ltd., one of the fastest growing toy manufacturers in North America, introduced its highly anticipated new Spring and Fall 2009 line-up to the media today at Toy Fair 2009 in New York City.

Boys action products were a huge hit in 2008 and Spin Master established its position among this category’s elite players after its highly popular Bakguan took the toy world by storm as the year’s must have toy. This category is looking to grow even stronger in 2009 and Bakugan will once again be positioned among the leaders as Spin Master introduces exciting new characters, shapes, G-Power levels, attack skills, strategic rules and other game enhancements and accessories throughout the year. Bakugan’s game enhancements will be represented in its hit television show’s second season – New Vestroia – and will be aimed at turning Bakugan collecting and trading enthusiasts into Bakugan gaming enthusiasts.
The most exciting new evolution in Bakugan play being introduced this spring is the Bakugan Trap. Bakugan Trap are transforming Bakugan characters that come in an assortment of shapes including a Cube, Coin, Drum, and Pyramid that act as strategic game pieces that can shift the tide of battle in favor of anyone who yields it. As with all Bakugan characters, one Gate card and one Ability Card will be included with each.
Spin Master established itself in the toy industry when it introduced its revolutionary line of fun, unique and affordable Air Hogs R/C vehicles in 1998. To celebrate its 10th anniversary this year, Spin Master is launching two of the most innovative R/C vehicles ever imagined, the new Laser Zero Gravity all surface R/C car that is controlled by a unique hand-held laser controller; and the new Air Hogs Switchblade a two- in-one flyer that is unlike anything ever seen before in R/C action.
This year Spin Master will also launch Micro Terrain Titans, an all new line of R/C mini stunt cars that are the first and only micro R/C vehicles that come equipped with technologically advanced front and rear suspension, off-road tires and a turbo button to power over virtually any terrain.
“Spin Master has revolutionized the world of R/C action,” said Mr. Rabie. “We pride ourselves on pushing the boundaries of design, performance and quality across all our lines and nowhere is this seen as clearly as with Air Hogs.
