Is that Garuburn? It's super wild that we're finally getting adaptations of some main Crossfight B-Daman now. However, this isn't just Garuburn, they've turned things up a notch.  The way each mode comes together is actually incredible. The way they use the Small Cap Shooter in GS and GC mode is amazing. This is the type of stuff I was hoping we'd get one day. All in all, this guy's looking real good so far.

BOT-58 "Bottle Phoenix G" (Bottle Phoenix Energy DX's new form) (Power Type) (Release Date: August 5, 2023)

BOT-59 "Bottle Sphinx G" (Control Type) (Release Date: October 28, 2023)











BOT-60 "Cola-Oh G" (Multi Type) (Release Date: October 28, 2023)

So... I'm guessing Bottleman is officially dead, isn't?

At this point I feel like BottleMan is dead... time for new B Damen gen tbh

BOT-61 "Spritening G" (Multi Type) (Release Date: November 18, 2023)

BOT-61 "Spritening G" (Multi Type) (Release Date: November 18, 2023)

Well, that's surprising. This seems like an average release, and Spritening in particular actually seems pretty good as well. If they wanted to end Bottleman, surely they would've done it with Colaoh. It seems like they want to keep the God Cap line going, perhaps in preparation for another series?. Either way, I'm interested.

I think it's worth pointing out that assuming Bottleman will continue on from here, while we don't know anything about the future Takara Tomy has patented 3 secret designs over the course of this year. This hasn't been revealed yet, so they could be Bottleman-related. The start of the series specifically had issues related to these patents being public, letting everyone know a B-Daman-esque series of toys that shoot bottle caps was on the way long before Project BM was even teased. So if they're playing on another series of some sort, maybe they've taken extra precautions this time around.

BOT-62 "Team Guts Set" (Release Date: December 9, 2023)

BOT-63 "Cobalt Bottle Fire G" (Cobalt Bottle G's new form) (Power Type) (Release Date: December 27, 2023)








BOT-64 "Sou-Ryu-Oh G (Control Type) & Kou-Ryu-Oh G (Speed Type)" (Random Collection Vol.04) (Release Date: December 27, 2023)

BOT-65 "Welch Great G" (Multi Type) (Release Date: January 27, 2024)

The fact that they're still consistently releasing products when they don't have to at this point (The G line could've ended with Colaoh, let's be honest), makes me think that they have something cooking up. I would assume they're waiting for something to happen but don't just want to go ghost until then (because people might forget about the series). Given that new hobby series like to start around March-April, I'm anticipating something in the next few months.

Blast Boss G : why in this series only my head part is released !##%!&@$$!&&#!$^*!

BOT-61 "Spritening G" (Multi Type) (Release Date: November 18, 2023)

Just bought this one as my first Bottleman.  Right now,  I'm looking for scans of its sticker sheet for when they inevitably wear out.  Anybody got any?

TakaraTomy is officially gonna be killing off Bottleman...:
