Mattel enters the Battleleague

Debuted at the recent 2007 New York Toy Fair was Battleleague, this the latest action-figure board game (without the board) by Mattel. Using beautifully sculpted figures by the Four Horsemen, kids can build their armies of heroes and villains with booster packs, and set up elaborate play environments thanks to packaging that actually transforms into city buildings.

Battleague Starter Set: Kids can battle like a hero with Battleague the new action figure board game, but without the board. The starter set includes everything kids need to gear up for battle, including four beautifully-sculpted figures, mission cards with four power chips and two tokens. All Battleague packages convert into battlefield buildings, from city hall to banks and more.
