Ok, which set is this? Hexbug Bridge Battle Playset I noticed the title says this is the bridge battle set, but the images show the nano habitat, so which one is this?

I think if you buy from a third party seller, you are likely to get the habitat instead of the bridge battle set. However, if you purchase from Amazon, you will almost certainly get the bridge battle set (Amazon sells both sets, and this one is several dollars more--hence my assumption that they are, in fact, referring to the more expensive bridge battle set). Furthermore, if you specify Amazon as the seller, and you still receive the wrong set, it is Amazon's fault and they will make it right. I have never received inaccurate products or marked up prices on purchases made directly from Amazon--only from third-party sellers.

I am not sure, I brought the hexbug nano V2 for my daughter for x-mas. From the commercial and the pictures it kind looks like it needs the tube to climb. I am sorry I was not much help. My daughter is 8 and gets a kick out of these bugs.

Yes, V2 bugs are fine on this set. The pieces here are compatible with the cells in the V2 sets (just a different colour). Nano V2 bugs reign supreme over all the bugs. Except: Nano V2 bugs don't work on the Zip Line Set (because they don't fit into the harness provided), and they get a little stuck in the starting gate of the Raceway Habitat (they need a little human encouragement), but otherwise should work fine on all other version 1 sets.

I'm sorry - I know absolutely nothing about the Shelti Breakout table. I would hope that for an extra $400, it would be a nicer version. My only comment is that two players broke at the ankles shortly after our purchase. Carrom replaced them free of charge, but it was surprising they broke under normal playing conditions. I would try to find both games in a local store and compare their features and quality first-hand.

The characters that come with an hexagon (6 sided) clear game piece, yes they are more of the game. But not all characters have these clear hexagon pieces. These can only be played in the toy box: like Mickey, the skeleton, the frozen girls. I hope this helps.

I have been interested to find out too. Here it says there is a Mindstorms NXT 2 coming out (http://thenxtstep.blogspot.com/2009/01/new-8547-mindstorms-nxt-20.html). English reports say it is due out in August for 200 pounds. There is also talk of multiple kits.

No to both. Only some older nanos had game play possible although I do not know if these games are still available - though I very much doubt it.

I received a cool circuits game that does not work. The seller gave me a refund, and I kept the cool circuit game. I would be happy to send you the puzzle piece from my game.

yes! all 4, just as pictured...it really is a good set. My soon to be 7 y/o got it for Christmas last year....he still plays w/ it (even among his many choices!)

Both sets are pretty cool to have. I don't have any of the legacy figures, but I think they are about the same. I will say that the black series 6 inch figures are some of the best figures I've seen around.

All the compatible accessories should show "Eagle Talon Castle" on the packaging. The ones that are interactive should also be notated. There is a dragon and an oger that the castle will sense and state to "man your battle stations" or various different phrases. There's a battering ram, a boulder launcher, a cannon launcher...and a few others I believe. I don't have the Lions Den, but I'm guessing it would be similar. My boys (age 6 & 3) have looked at it, but still think their Eagle Talon Castle is cooler. Whichever you get just match the packaging. My boys LOVE Imaginext and I actually enjoy playing with them too. They have little movable parts that are fun to manipulate. Good luck!

I LOVE THE BLUE TIN. Having said that I will give my opinion on what I would choose if I had been given the choice. Plastic or tin? I would always choose a metal container over plastic or cardboard one. A metal container in my opinion would always provide a more stable, long lasting way to preserve a family game. I have decks of cards, card games, dice games and board games that came in metal, cardboard, plastic and even wooden containers. Over many years the plastic and cardboard packaging has become broken, tattered, taped and glued and in many cases the containers have been long discarded because of lost and missing pieces. Over those same years of usage in comparison to the games that came in metal or wooden containers that still look great and seldom end up with missing pieces. I have never seen this game in any other form so I can only give an opinion on the plastic packaging but if I had been given a choice it would have been METAL hands down !!!! I also like the nostalgic feel of the metal container. Gives the feel of having a long time favorite game that has been around for years.

It's meant to be a duel. Think of it like chess, but with bugs. You could try to play with more if you had other sets, I suppose.

You need the new king, the "V2" hexbug nanos. This set comes with 1 of them.

Hum. I am not sure which Variares it can beat. Don't think I have not went against one. Now if you asking someone else, then I am sorry for cutting in. When I used it, it took out quite a few of Hasbro's beys. You will have to tweak Hasbro's beys up some for them to beat Twisted Tempo as it is called here. It is called Basalt Horogium 145WD in Takara Tomy. The only Takara Tomy Bey that I saw it beat was Kreis Cygnus 145 WD being that is the only one I have matched it up against. But a site has stated that it take out Diablo Nemsis but I also read that Kreis Cygnus can too. I have not ordered any more Takara Tomy Beys for a while. If it goes against a Variares ((Hasbro or Takara Tomy)) I can respond back this question if that helps. ^_^

Hi, I'm the designer of the game. I was concerned about all the rumors here, so I checked with the publisher. She told me that 5000 copies of the game had been sent to distributors during Q4, but some of the larger distributors may have sold out theirs already due to the Tabletop coverage. There are more on the way, though, and I suspect that some of the smaller places and local stores may still have copies available, so you shouldn't need to start scavenging quite yet!

I just received my copy. This is definitely the reprint as described by the Game Geeks website: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/611359/so-youre-wondering-about-the-reprint-of-railways-oHowever, even though I have the new Baron cards and Mexico Operations cards (from the reprint), I still received the pastel colored trains. Apparently, Eagle Games simply used up whatever they had left. It does explicitly state on the back of the box that the colors may vary from what is pictured.
