Beyblade Random Thoughts

There is the whole thing of merit vs popularity/rarity though. Bahamudia Ifraid is Top-tier Smash Attack but Wyvang is more popular and sees more use. And Ingulit says that Duo 160PD is as good as 230D or W145WD but it doesn't see as much use as those because not many people own a PD.

Again... not top tier. I believe what Wombat says is true, but Ifraid can be used as a decent alternative also.
Aye I got a good conversation started! Bahamoote Ifrit? What was the rest of combo?
SA165R2F. I could've sworn it was up there though... Maybe in a earlier draft it was.
It was defintely in discussion, so it probably showed up in the draft at some point.

It was up there for a while & I was against it. Must have been taken off recently.

Edit: http://worldbeyblade.org/Thread-Zero-G-D...pid1159150

It's not on Kei's "official" list, but it was on one that was pending approval for a while.
No, it was never up there...

The thread has previous lists too.
It never had much support or testing either.
Edited my former post to include a link to the list it was on, & here's the testing that was done for it.

I know it's for Zero G. Never said it wasn't :p

Yeah, but that was for Zero-G, which the only reason Bahamdia is/was used is becuase of it's wide diamater. And that post was a year ago.
So not sure where the best place to put this it but apart from here.
Recently I've been playing a lot of yugioh and pokemon (tgc and vgc) and there's a full shop near me dedicated to board and card games but also a lot of other game. They are willing to host a tournament there but as there is a minority of people living in the north of England who play beyblade this May prove difficult. What I'm going to try and do however is get some of the people there to try start play beyblade, hopefully I'll get enough people to restart the blading scene on Britain; it's been quite for a long while now. Let's do this!

Quote:Beyblade has had promotions with top tier partners like Toyota, National, Burger King, Kelloggs and Frito Lay in various countries

I know for sure that they have had promotions with Kelloggs and Burger King, but I didn't know about the rest.

It's definitely true about Burger King and Kellogg's (hence the Burger King Beyblades and figurines and Kellogg's ARs), so the others could be too. They do say "various countries," so just because neither of us are familiar with their promotions doesn't mean someone from one of those countries might not be.

yes,

If it was not Toyota, there was definitely a partnership with another car company in Saudi Arabia or something; the same country who stole our English Metal Fight Beyblade logo for their products' package ...

I think 'New boy' is the current distributor for beyblade in the UAE, right ?
Ah yes, it was NEW BOY, I remember now.

So, yeah, people with different types of F230, please check this out for yourselves.


Could people with F230s please check this out, regardless of what brand or color (though please state them)? I'd like to find out if this is an isolated occurrence, whether the variation is limited to just Hasbro F230s, or if both Hasbro and Takara Tomy F230s can come with this different axis.
I have all the F230, but I unfortunately do not want to open anything ...


On another note, is it me or is the Zero-G Stadium Attack Type rather great looking.
I think it looks like an oversized plastic bowl IMO.
I think it looks way better then Defense and Balance. Those two look awful.
Personally, I like Blue Clips on Attack. (Just ordered that.)
Exactly, I like the blue clips as well. It looks like you could not get a sleeker-looking stadium design, ever.

By the way, your bowls must be weird if the Zero-G Stadium even with the cover reminds you of a bowl ... Sure, if you remove the clips and the cover, it could look like a bowl, but not with all the components.
