Super B-Daman Series

__FORCETOC__
The Super B-Daman Series, sometimes referred to as the Super Bomberman B-Daman Series, is eponymous first toy series released during Super B-Daman, the third generation of B-Daman toys. It features toys representing B-Daman figures from the original Super B-Daman setting as presented in the manga Burst Ball Barrage!! Super B-Daman. 
Although the Super B-Daman setting would quickly break away from the Bomberman IP and begin to feature primarily its own original non-Bomberman designs, the original Super B-Daman toy series depicted figures from the earliest chapters of the story during which characters were still shown using B-Daman resembling Bomberman characters. The packaging of this series retains Super Bomberman branding, and lacks depictions of the human characters from the manga.
Although often regarded as successive generations, the Bakugaiden and Super B-Daman toy lines ran side by side, with Super B-Daman roughly coinciding with Bakugaiden's Bomberman Bakugaiden Series.
==Series Overview==
Super B-Daman also began a standard pattern that would be repeated through many later B-Daman series, featuring both main B-Daman figure releases and independently-packaged Custom Parts. These were split into:
* Seventeen figure kit releases with ## product numbers.
* Fourteen Custom Parts releases with P## product numbers.
In another pattern that would become a regular B-Daman paradigm, most main figure releases contain a Bomberman figure in various colors, with each one bearing a "special feature" or Gimmick in the form of either customs parts packed in with the kit or special body parts with different functionality than those of the standard Bomberman B-Daman body. A few releases also introduced the concept of playsets, larger boxed products containing materials to allow for various kinds of competitive event play - typically containing some kind of arena or other play environment, and an assortment of targets, barriers, ramps, and other components with which to set up suggested gameplay modes.
The Super B-Daman Custom Parts line emphasizes body customization rather than hardpoint equipment, including a wide assortment of alternate body pieces, feet, and hold parts. Most hardpoint equipment is instead included with one of the figure releases, such that multiple figures would need to be acquired in order to equip parts to multiple hardpoints on a single figure at once.
==Bomber System Overview==
Super B-Daman was the first series to use a System to unify the design of interchangeable parts among its releases. Although the system is not named in official documentation, fans both in Japan and internationally commonly refer to it as the "Bomber System" or "Bomberman System" due to its design centering around a Bomberman-styled body, and there is evidence suggesting that Takara-Tomy staff have used this terminology as well.
The Bomber System is functionally an expansion of the old Bomberman body design from a simple figure that was not intended for disassembly, to a figure with a similar overall shape but composed of many interchangeable parts that can be disassembled so that parts can be swapped freely. Additionally, the system adds several hardpoints to the classic Bomberman design to allow Bomber System B-Daman to interface with Custom Parts. These recurring system design patterns would continue to see repeated use through B-Daman history, including several specific hardpoint designs being reused in many later series.
