The Nacelle Company Expands Toy Division with Big Bad Battle Caps

In addition to The Nacelle Company’s recent children's toy reveal, Garden Surprise, the Burbank-based diversified media company is excited to introduce Big Bad Battle Caps to their rapidly growing toy and consumer products division. This new toy line captures the spirit of addictive bottle cap games, with a fresh, new, modernized look. Unlike other battle-based products on the market, Big Bad Battle Caps rely on a player’s active involvement, skill, and technique - instead of winning by chance. With hundreds of unique character designs, snap-on accessories and multiple add-on sets, Big Bad Battle Caps is sure to be the toy your kids won’t stop asking you about.

This announcement comes on the heels of Nacelle Company’s recent revival of the Robo Force line, their announcement of the Legends of Laughter line featuring Joan Rivers, Bill Hicks and Lenny Bruce, as well as Sectaurs and Power Lords action figure lines that are currently in production. In addition to their action figure reveals, Nacelle Company recently introduced Garden Surprise, a children’s garden-themed collectible, with a surprise reveal play pattern that continues beyond the unboxing! Big Bad Battle Caps will be available at retailers nationwide, as well as Nacellestore.com.
