Thanks to u/godkillgroth we have a huge list of codes to see if your Metal Fight Beyblade is real or not! See his list here

​

Where can I buy genuine Beyblades?

Portal 0

Pros: There aren't fakes on the site, prices adjust at a good pace and they also follow the release of TT beys in japan, including beys of every generation that's easier to access than amazon or Ebay.

Cons: Some of the cheaper prices come only if you buy multiple copies (this also varies between a pro and con). Shipping can also be costly depending on where you live, and can sometimes take longer than a week or two.

Amazon/Amazon JP

Pros: Fast Shipping, relatively easy to sort out fakes, follows the new release of Takara Tomy and Hasbro beys fairly quickly

Cons: Can be more expensive if you want to use faster shipping, the prices also stay higher since they're based of Japan retail prices, less options to look through for the legitimate products (this can also be a pro depending on how one views it)

MallOfToys

Pro's: They follow the release of TT beys in Japan. Huge selection of beyblades and fast shipping in the USA Cons: Long pre-order times, at least two weeks after the Japan release will it be shipped. US based so not a goos choice for Europeans or Asian based countries.

BeysAndBricks:

Pro's: They follow the release of TT beys in Japan. Huge selection of beyblades and fast shipping in the USA. Huge selection of MFB beyblades and limited edition products.

Con's: Not all MFB are real, some are the famed Mid-fake Beyblades, look for listings that show the codes!

Ever-Wish:

Pro's: Huge selection of Burst and Metal Fight Beyblades! Some good deals are to be Made here if you buy in bulk

Con's: very expensive shipping costs.

Vinted Europe:

Pro's: Many Hasbro Metal Master Beys can be obtained here for cheap! Like REAL cheap! Takara Tomy Burst bey's can also be found here!

Con's: Europe only

Maxxidiscount France:

Pro's: BIG selection of new in box Hasbro Metal Fight Beyblades! Ships worldwide!

Con's: Europe based, high shipping costs for international shipping.

BeyCentral:

Pro's: No worries about Midfakes, US based, Free shipping above 50USD, Returns accepted on all purchases, some rare beys can be found here!.

Con's: Most of the stock is used, beys can have parts that are not in the best condition. Most of the stock is Plastic Gen and MFB focused.

Proxy services like ZenMarket and Buyee:

Pro's: Able to buy from Mercari and Yahoo Auctions Japan. Able to get some rare Japan only Beyblades.

Cons: Many small fees can add up to the bill and you'll pay a lot of extra money in the end.

Risks of fake Beyblade brands

  • Parts are cheap, low-quality imitations of the originals, and put you at risk for injury due to parts breaking during battle.

  • Although most fake Beyblades and accessories are compatible with real parts, the sizing is not exactly the same (due to copying molds), making it likely that fake parts will damage real parts when mixed. This is especially true with fake parts such as the completely diecast Performance Tips produced for Metal Saga Beys. The metal used often has sharp edges that damage whatever parts they are attached to.

  • Some fake Beyblades may contain lead and other toxic chemicals; combined with fake Beyblades' tendency to break, there is a risk that chips and breakage will spread toxic material.

  • Fake Beyblades from the Metal Saga and the Burst Series that have metallic paint and metal pieces contain toxic levels of lead and cadmium.

  • Some fake Beys have dangerous and/or explosive materials. For example, some counterfeit Beys produced during the early 2000's had a very large, round weight disk which contained a thin layer of Armstrong's mixture (a kind of explosive used for pyrotechnics) that made the Bey produce sparks upon hitting a solid object.

TIPS to avoid buying fake Beyblades:

  • Look for official company logos on the packaging, such as Takara Tomy, Sonokong, and Hasbro. If it lacks these logos (or has a different one in place of it), it is fake.

  • When buying Beyblades online, they are more likely to be fake if the original packaging is not included ("loose" or "single" listing), especially for recently released products.Another indicator is the location of the seller.

  • Most counterfeits are produced in China and shipped from there.

  • Look for obvious errors on the packaging, such as poor English, misplaced images, and incorrect names.

  • Counterfeit packaging tends to have blurry or faded pictures, odd placement of images or text, and often lack UPC/JAN barcodes or QR codes of any kind. Some that include barcodes will lack the numbers underneath the stripes, or have blurry barcodes.

  • Official products produced by Hasbro, Takara Tomy and Sonokong will have company contact information such as phone numbers and addresses.

Discussion Is it just me?

What is something that irks you when it comes to collabeys? My main ick is that the chip design is just meh. People can disagree on something and this is one of my ticks. Everytime i look at my beys, all of them have a stylized avatar on the chip. When I even glance at the collobeys, I just go, oh hi spiderman. I know its a collab and all but at least make it seem like its a bey design. I just feel like they got a png, slapped it on a chip, and called it a day. I don't know, it could just be me being nitpicky honestly, I wanna hear yalls opinions on it or just collobeys in general-

Discussion Speculation: Expect Price Increases for Hasbro Beys

• Upvotes

If you were unaware, Hasbro is the owner of Wizards Of The Coast. WotC is responsible for D&D and Magic: The Gathering. these two brands make up a majority of Hasbro's profits year over year, and have done so for quite some time. in fact, Hasbro can absorb loss in other brands simply because MtG and D&D are just absolutely printing money for them.

So, with is the past few days, WotC made a public statement, declaring that Hasbro is severely overworking their teams, cutting as much cost with AI as possible, and just laid of over 600 employees heading into the holiday season. WotC is demanding better working conditions and no more crunch, under the threat of legal action. Hasbro has responded. they will not negotiate with WotC on any of their demands and will be taking legal action again them.

this is going to have knock-on effects across the board on Hasbro properties. this will likely be the most expensive legal battle in their history, and if they lose WotC, they lose profitability in a HUGE way.

with all this news, I think we better brace for some price spikes, as well as less exclusives, or worse, less imports in general.

Heya I'm thinking about starting a yt channel but I don't really know how to record tournament matches without being annoying for my opponent, I'm thinking about getting a tripod with a light ring but I'm not sure if it'd be too obstructive for my opponent launching (we play in tables) does anyone have any tips and if so I would really appreciate them

  1. ring aether 5-50 hexa - NEW FAVORITE, LITERALLY JUST PULLED THE PRIZE BEY WITHOUT NEEDING TO BUY MORE THAN 1 RB WOOH, oh yeah also its surprisingly good, especially with the weight it has over wizardrod, i was able to stabilize the imbalance with the alignment of 5-50 (which is in the image) and it works GREAT
  2. dran sword (v2), 1-50 Jolt: THIS THING DOES NOT SETTLE FOR SPIN FINISHES HOLY, it only wants pockets, bursts and extremes
  3. aero Pegasus 1-80 kick: Its the car build except on kick cuz I prefer it. Yeah thats pretty much it

edit! i Made changes, ring aether is on 5-70 now and dsv2 is on rush

Discussion Anyone use pro-wrestling comparison for beyblade?

• Upvotes

If your a fan of wrestling does anyone compare beyblade to it. I know for og beyblade Ive been bringing up how the play by play guys for dub they make the fights look "real" like your watching it on ESPN or something. Just wondering if anyone can at least see how OG beyblade dub with play by play, the screen graphics feels "realistic-sports" within anime like pro wrestling, mma, etc.

I mean Kai vs Tyson at jp qualifying tourney had their fight in a cage....like that was some UFC/WWE stuff

Majestics - they are "heels" ('villians') you boo

Bladebreakers for the most part they are 'faces' - (i said the most part).

I know about Kai's "heel turn" in Russia

Question How Long Should I Wait For Phoenix Force?

0 Upvotes

So I'm really hyped about Phoenix Force because it looks close enough to one of the Dranzers but idrc about Wand or Shark at all, also the shipping price is kinda crazy since I'm in the US. How long does it usually take for beys that come out in a set to be sold individually?
