A few ideas I thought of, and a few ideas I'm in support of. Go grab a cup of coffee before going further, because this is going to be a looooooooong post.
First off, the Ideas I'm supporting.
Custom Faces - I probably won't end up getting any, whatever the reason, but it's a great idea.
T-Shirts - Brilliant idea, if I found some cash, would definitely get one.
DVD - Would almost definitely buy one, and I would suggest that aside from JUST high-quality versions of your youtube clips, perhaps add in some tournament footage. Perhaps on each DVD have an interview with the winner of each tournament, that is exclusive to the DVD. Maybe some extras, like Tried-And-True Beyblade Customizations, 1 of each type per DVD. Maybe even, for the fanatics (like myself) that like taking things apart, show what different BeyBlades/Launchers look like on the inside and exactly how to put them together/take them apart.
Or how about some exclusive to DVD tutorials? Anyways, getting off my subject here.
Uhm. Some ideas of my own that I've been thinking of..
Oh -- Random Anime Cosplay Events. We could organize these R.A.C.Es similarly to tournaments, but do them out in cities etc. and make people stare. It could be a $5 to $10 entry fee* (*It can be organizer's choice.) to be part of the R.A.C.E party, and you can randomly walk up to each other and challenge them in a loud voice. Whilst, I'll agree, it is an unbelievably juvenile and idiotic thing to do, it would be lots of fun. I mean seriously, haven't you ever wanted to see Cloud Strife and Edward Elric BeyBattle in the middle of the mall?
Also -- if certain people had the time, (I might at some point) we can make unofficial stalls somewhere, selling all the beyblades we don't want. Then the profits can go 50% to the original owner(s) and 50% to the WBO.
As well as this -- I don't know if it's legal, but if it is, we could bet
small amounts of money, or perhaps BeyBlades or BeyBlades parts on BeyBattles in Tournaments. I'm sure it probably isn't, but I'm sure a couple Weight Disks wouldn't be illegal.
Anywho, just go ahead and finish sipping that coffee now, and let your mind wander through this 12 year old's thoughts.
'Till next time,

If I had to choose between food for one week, or 14 authentic copies of every BeyBlade that ever existed, exists or will exist, well...
I'd go with the BeyBlades. :D
