Table Legend Note: The following table does not account for minor paint or hole variations, unless it is an oddity or a very notable difference. The table does not account for varying G-Powers, as it would be near impossible to track this information down. Terms: - B1: Bakugan that are 28mm in diameter - B2: Bakugan that are 32mm in diameter - Open Core: All B1 Sega Toys, Sonokong, and Spin Master Series 1 Bakugan have an exposed magnet - Closed Core: All Series 2 B1s, and Series 1 B1s that were re-released have a sealed magnet - Treatment: A variation from the normal 6 attributed releases. They include translucent plastic, unique color combinations, among other gimmicks Regional Releases: Bakugan releases differ by regions of the world. Below are the identified major regions, though specific countries would obtain specific releases on occasion. The identified regions are as follows: - Japan (Sega Toys releases) - South Korea (Sonokong B1s, otherwise part of Asia Region) - US + Canada (Canada has slightly different releases) - Western Europe/Latin America (Nations south of the USA received European waves) - Eastern Europe/Middle East (Primarily Russia and Post-Soviet nations) - Asia + Australia (Appears to have received a mix of everything else. Documentation is poor) Rarity Scoring: Note: Rarity scores are based on how easy the Bakugan is to find for a primarily American buyer, however Sega Toys and Takara Tomy releases have scores based on their own region. This means that if you live outside of the designated region, increase the rarity score by one or two points. For example, a Bakugan is 6/10 (Uncommon) in the US, and did not release in Japan. If you live in Japan, consider it 8/10 (Scarce) rarity instead. If a European Bakugan is considered Common (say 3/10), then to an American, consider it Uncommon (say 5/10). This is is because you would have to go out of your way to find sellers or utilize websites or middlemen, and are also likely to have to pay an increased cost in order to obtain it along with international shipping and taxes. Some sellers may also opt to not ship to your country. This effectively raises your barrier to entry, even if the toy in a vacuum is not difficult to find. - 1/10 - 2/10 (Bulk): Easy to find and relatively cheap, you will likely find a minimum of 10 results in a search and are often freebies in lots. - 3/10 - 4/10 (Common): Relatively easy to obtain, slightly less numerous and more expensive. Will yield a few results in a search. - 5/10 - 6/10 (Uncommon): Potentially annoying/expensive to track down, but realistic enough to obtain without too much issue. - 7/10 - 8/10 (Scarce): One will pop up every few weeks or months. You may have some competition in trying to obtain this, but it is absolutely doable. - 9/10 - 10/10 (Rare): Realistically, you will not obtain this Bakugan. Get a custom paint job or a recast if you can, and good luck otherwise. - One-Off/Not Scored: An anomaly that probably shouldn't exist, but has been documented for the sake of completion.
