Hello, my name is PinkSkulls. I've spent about an hour reading other introduction threads trying to find a good way to word my own, and another hour trying to draft this post alone.
I used to be a fan of beyblades during the metal era, both collecting and watching the show. My favorite bey then was Lightning L Drago, and I have yet to apply the stickers. I recently found out that beyblades were still popular and going strong thanks to a new series out, and I looked into it. Initially I thought Burst looked terrible because we were going right back to plastic, but when I found out about the variety of gimmicks and abilities beys were able to have now, I was hooked. My favorite bey before I even watched the show and knew who owned it was Revive Phoenix, and after watching Turbo, Phi has become my number one most favorite character with my number one most favorite bey. I'm a big fan of dragons and especially phoenixes, so my favorite beys were no surprise there, and I can easily call both beys the main beys that I own.
I'm excited for Dynamite Battle and being able to follow along and guess on the releases as we go for once, since this will be the first time I am actively following beyblade development, and it looks like these generations of beys are fantastic. Although it will never happen, I really wish for an evolution of Revive Phoenix or its ability in some capacity, as it is just too fun of a gimmick.
I mostly made an account after lurking for a few weeks to join the discord and poke around in the threads to guess how new releases will work, and to also talk about Astral Spriggan when it comes out. If you couldn't tell by the end of this post, I overuse commas, and I don't really know how to cut down on them even if I try to. If I apply myself, I could learn to properly use semicolons and that may help stop my run on sentences.
I'd love to attend some tournaments, just to be able to duel other bladers and see what their combinations are, and will hopefully be able to go to one soon.
