How exactly did Bakuten Shoot Beyblade (toys) go out of production? (also HMS's production)

Sorry if this is off-topic.

Takara just announced on their site that Beyblade production was suspended ... So, nothing else was produced after that, and Hasbro did not even finish releasing all the Heavy Metal System Beyblades.

Was the suspension due to the anime ruining the toys? Lack of fan support? sales? Or was it the beys? (Last 15 beys before HMS were bad)

So because of the Anime's growth of unreal fans (fangirls), the toys did not attract as much?

If what I'm saying is correct, then thank you very much.

Mainly because the toys had very poor sales at that time, so the anime did not do its job. It is my own theory, however, that the anime actually got its own fans separated from the hobby. When thinking about this, you always have to compare the toys with the anime and vice versa, you can never just think of one alone. The anime could have continued to grow and have a lot of fans, however it did not serve its purpose anymore, which is solely to advertise the toys. Takara funded the anime and manga, because they wanted those to help them sell toys. If they cannot sell Beyblades anymore, then of course they will just stop everything related to them.

Ah I get it now. Thanks a lot for the answer.

that makes alot of since is kinda like how they make the electronic beys for younger kids and that comes from the show and how like stores at k-mart give you $5 dollar discounts on beys when you buy a beyblade dvd...

u cant
it cracks, it cracks
or sum how u superglue it precisely , u cant really fix it

If you try to repair it (using glue or melting it) the recoil and shock of impact with an opposing bey will make your bey explode.

Thanks i tried using hot glue and it didn't work so i just ordered parts off of toywiz.com.

MF's are used to provide enough weight to lessen the recoil of the tips like RF, R2F, LRF, etc. But MF-H's would be too heavy as the added weight would decrease the speed of the attack bey, not giving it enough power to sufficiently KO the opposing bey.

"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new: an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook." But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist can come from anywhere."

-Anton Ego/Peter O'Toole (1932-2013)

Good Point ga

Absolutely. It is the best stadium for Metal Fight Beyblade.
