I hadn't even thought of it, but E-Bob is right. Swarm will give you a
great exploding effect. Use a hi-res Ball as the base prop, expand its
scale through the animation, and then use Swarm to populate it
with a bunch of boxes or shard-shaped thingies.
I just tried it, and it works very nicely.

I haven't been keeping up with them.
