Spinning tops they are, but with their innovative technology these Mega Bloks Battle Strikers are also so much more. The battery powered Turbo Launcher is a joystick type controller that you hold in your hand. The 'Striker' - the spinning top - attaches to the bottom of the launcher and is powered to over 6000 RPMs before being launched into battle. Once in battle the very precise finger Controller, powered by magnets, enables the player to command the battle by making the 'Striker' jump, dodge or move around. The idea is to knock the opponents Striker out of the game using the force of magnetism. They can battle on any surface, anywhere.
There are 16 unique Strikers to collect. Each Striker has different strengths determined by ratings from the three performance categories of attack, defense and control. The ratings for each category are detailed in each Striker's description. Each Striker is made of six pieces, which children can mix and match between Strikers to build their own custom versions with unique battling actions that they have designed.
All Battle Strikers require the Turbo Launcher and Magnetic Controller found in the Starter Packs or Tournament Set.
