The pre-order bonus of your dreams: A Bakugan pillowcase

by Justin McElroy on Aug 25th 2009 11:00PM

Let the losers keep their night vision goggles and Batarangs, those of you pre-ordering Bakugan Battle Brawlers at Game Crazy are going to get the real premium: A pillowcase featuring BBB's lead character Dan. Just imagine how cool it's going to look this October as the neighborhood bully spirits it into the night, filled with your freshly collected Halloween candy.

What's that? Still not convinced? Did we mention that the reverse side features Dan's guardian Bakugan Dragonoid? Seriously, check it out after the jump.

Considering how great it looks there, we can't even imagine how gorgeous it'll be after its been drenched in the Jessica-Alba-dream-induced neck sweat and bitter tears of the planet's loneliest 33-year-old. Can you?

i never understood what was so big about bakugan. it never seemed noteworthy to me.

i also never understood what was so good about beyblade, so i guess it's fitting.

Hey! I happened to dig Beyblade and its awesome opening music!

well, awesome compared to Bakugan.

And at least if you hotglued razorblades to a beyblade, it makes a funner toy.

What the fuck is a BeyBlade? I don't belong here with you younglings.

Well, FAIRLY old..

For someone who likes Armitage, it's comparatively REALLY NEW. :P

LMAO sounds like a 6 year old would like crap like what your referring to JoyStiq jezz ..
Do you even remember the cool G.I. JOE with Transformer's bed sheets when you were a kid?..This is really creepy .Death To Pokemon!!

Beyblade was a really well designed game. So is Pokemon. Bakugan, on the other hand, is pretty eh.

"For someone who likes Armitage, it's comparatively REALLY NEW"

Oh Snap!

OH YEAH! SHIT JUST GOT REAL!

LOL what is this? Some sort of monster game where they pop out of kids marbles and cards?

wow, this game is gonna be a system seller, I bet.

What is Bakugan?

It's Japanese for "pillowcase."

Your standard children's anime made just to sell a Bandai toy.
The voice acting is god awful though.

You gotta hand it to 'em, a pillowcase is a pleasantly unusual pre-order bonus. If I had a Brutal Legend pillowcase, you'd better believe I'd bury my face in virtual Jack Black goodness nightly.

I guess you could fill it with bricks and hit someone with it, then they won't be able to testify because they would have to admit they got their ass kicked with a Bakugan pillow case.

Best comment I've read in a while.

Best comment ever.*

*this week

I've always dreamed of going to sleep clutching a pillow with an underage adrogenoys boy on the front.

And an anime dragon on the other side.

Because he'll protect my dreams.

At least it's not one of those full body pillow cases.... which would be even more sick with some 8 year old anime boy on it.

If I knew what Bakugan was, I would want that pillowcase.

Actually from the looks of it.. If I knew what it was I'd probably not want it at all!

Shall I put my face on a man, or a Dragon? Hmmmmm

the boy on the pillow case looks like a homo.
NOTE: i am not homophobic.Also i do not hate or discriminate against the gay community.

It says a lot about your character that you can consider a child that young to have an active sexual orientation.

I'll just stand over here.. away from you.

dude i said what i said because the kid looks very feminine on the pillow case.

Wait? Feminine=Homosexual, now? I better tell all the women i know, then buy a video camera and report back later with videos.

i do not discriminate against the gay community (except in this post)

He really does look more like Sailor Moon than Ash Catchem...

Gone are the days when people actually fought each other using their fists instead of cards and stupid tops.

Oh, oh... and how could I forget: animals.

YEAH! Back in my day with fought each other with metal balls, and we fired at one another with a cannon emplacements...

CROSSFIRE!!! You'll get caught up in the.. Crossfire.. crossfire.. CROSSFIRE!!!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4M-WmQWEJRo

Crossfire was the hottest sh*t ever...

BeyBlade and Bakugan ain't got nothin' on those balls and "tops"...

I've heard of this, but i can't even look at it without thinking of the Byakugan.

Only one?

That's okay, I guess. Once I get it, I'll never be needing a bed larger than a twin.

I won't be able to get to sleep without this pillowcase under my head.

Can't wait for this game! This is the one where you play as Ned, the apprentice hairstylist, from the pacific northwest, who eats salmon jerky, and wields a lawnmower, right?
Cool, well, anyway, I can't wait
I'll have a seizure if i look at that pillow any longer, goodness gracious.

You forgot the fuchsia feather duster jk jk.

that's pretty funny dude jk jk

@Phizzy

Did you get offended by this? Go play your bakugan and grow a pair while your at it.

It's not offensive. It just... wasn't funny.

Bakugan?

...wait theres an actual ongoing thread about this?

OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG!

I can't wait to cover this pillowcase in 'stains' and submit it to some very niche fetish websites.

Goofy hair: check. Fingerless gloves: check. Sunglasses in goofy hair: check. Giant belt: check. Ugly, functionless outerwear: check. Big goofy eyes and stupid expression: check.

Yes ladies and gentlemen, you got the same tired Japanese art design you've been getting for a couple decades now.

That child must have some serious hydrocephalus.

Thank you Digimon 2.0; My dreams have just come true..

Lugia and Ho-Oh (for that matter) would take the meanest shit on these Bakugan characters

One morning I was watching Transformers before going to work, and Bakugan came on after it was finished.

I managed to catch the opening sequence and seriously...they just aren't even trying.

"These cards started falling from the sky so we decided to make a game out of them"

That right there is a high quality plot.

At my school the 6 year olds play Bakugan when I was 6 I played with spinning discs thats slogan was let it rip! (beyblade) and trading cards with strange animals (pokemon, yu-gi-oh) I think its also a AMerican made anime
But I shouldnt be talking because until I was 10 I had a Luke Skywalker pillowcase that I got from a action figure
