Monsuno Action Figures, Trading Cards & TV Show

A While back we received a new toy line from JAKKS Pacific. They sent us a party pack of Monsuno toys and the boys in the neighborhood were all really excited. I never understood the fascination in trading cards but these boys loved getting their own packs and had fun seeing who had red ones and who had blue ones and which character each one had. They all wanted to have at least one of the same. Monsuno is an animated adventure show on NickToons.

Meteors fell to the planet. These meteors carried LIFE – in the form of powerful, chaotic, uncontrollable genetic material.

This was MONSUNO; origins unknown, but catastrophically destructive to the planet’s prehistoric population. As the dinosaurs perished, the uninvited Monsuno essence fell instinctively dormant – and over millions of years, dropped deeper and deeper below the planet’s surface.. Until TODAY.

When a potent energy source is discovered in the K-layers of the planet, scientist Jeredy Suno believes he’s struck a solution to the ever-mounting energy crisis. What he doesn’t know – this green energy source is a ticking time bomb.

They were a bit too young to play one of the organized games that we had with it. The Monsuno line is geared to ages 6-10 and it features action figures, accessories, combat sets, collectibles, electronics and role play games so that the kids can bring the show to life through imaginative play. How the game is played:

Object

The first person to knock out their foe’s Monsunos wins!

Set-up

Each player will need 3 different Monsunos with a total “Launch” of no more than 15. In addition, each player will need a deck of at least 40 Strike cards. This deck may contain up to 3 copies of any card, but only 1 copy of cards with the “Unique” keyword.

Players can use tokens or coins to mark damage. Both players shuffle their decks (keeping their Monsuno cards set aside) and set-up the play area like in the diagram. To start the game, both players draw 5 cards from the top of their decks to make their starting hands. Then, randomly decide who will take the first turn. That’s it, you’re ready to battle!!!

Players alternate taking turns until one player wins!

The action figures are collectable too. We checked out a few of them and donated the rest. I Umm, wasn’t sure how to get the cores to work or how to fold the animals. I didn’t realize that there were instructions on-line. I was really excited when I figured that out. Ultimate Monster Power in Your Hand! LOCK, the Monsuno left to Chase by his missing father. Physically strong and potentially destructive, Lock is a wise creature who has experienced earth since the beginning of humanity. Slow to anger but fiercely protective of Chase, Lock sees great potential in the Suno family, and sticks with the boy because of the incredible potential he represents.
