About Battle Strikers

Battle Strikers put a new spin on battling tops by letting kids launch without
ripcords or pull strings, while giving them control of their tops for the
first time. Kids rev up their Striker at 6000 RPMs through a handheld Turbo
Launcher and release it into the arena for intense battling action. Once
launched, kids can command their Striker using a controller to try and knock
their opponent out of the arena. Kids can collect sixteen unique and
customizable Strikers.
