Do you have any kind of source? It seems like it could be a fake. I won't bet on anything until I hear more...

From what I've researched, that's from a Trade Fair held this week, at which d-Rights were trying to sell the series to various networks for airing.
If I could only order one b-daman, what would my best bet be?

From the initial line for Cross Fight, I'd recommend either Accelle=Dracyan or Smash=Dragold.
Is Twin=Drazeros not worth getting then? That appealed to me more than the others (Though, Accele=Dracyan did come to mind).

Honestly, I don't like Twin=Drazeros as much functionality wise. He looks amazing and his gimmick definitely has power and charm, but he just seems a bit fiddly to me. He lacks too much control for my tastes.
I ordered accelle=draycan. Ive only seen three episodes and dont know anything a out b daman except for dhb's but i still cant wait for draycan to come!
"He" ? I thought only young Beyblade fans called their toys by a gender, hah.

Well, Beyblade and B-Daman are different. A Beyblade is just a top with a spirit inside whilst in the show the B-Daman are humanoid and actually speak. The B-Daman itself is a character with dialogue. Just as I'd refer to any male gender action figure as "he," so would I my B-Daman.
But this topic is for the toy, and your toy certainly has no spirit or even that much of a humanoid figure ...

But it's still an idiom to that character from the show. It's the same reason people call the Mona Lisa or the Statue of Liberty "She."
You and Kai-V like arguing don't you IXRolloutIX? Lol.

Haha. I suppose we do, don't we? It's all good in nature, though. We don't mean each other harm... At least I hope so. Gasp

If I were you , wouldn't take my chances so far...
Say, Master Horikawa is still active in B-Daman, but what happened with Master Koryakuo? Did he retire?
Any of you seen the season finale of Cross Fight? I totally loved Kamon's cameo. I was really surprised how deep of a voice the character has though, considering how young Kakeru sounds...

On another note, during the final battle, Dracyan briefly transforms into the make finish version of the toy you could get by completing a "B-Point" prize card over in Japan. Neat. Cute

@ IXRolloutIX: I did see the season finale. Poor Ryuuji broke down in tears after realizing how much trouble he's caused under Dragold's influence. Ah, yes, the B-DaPoint Card from the Accele=Dracyan DX Set. Also, the GanGan Hobby Point Card can be used for both the Bey Ta 2Go and B-Ta 1Go arcade machines.

I know Smile and yes I did it was really good, can't wait for season 2.
The B-Daman.tv website updated the eS section with a trailer for the new series. A nice bit of the new opening theme plays in the background!

Check it out!: http://www.b-daman.tv/eS/pv/index.html
Neat. I like the theme song!
This topic is about the toys. There is another thread strictly for the anime.

The thread is within "General Discussion" and is titled simply "Cross Fight B-Daman" not specifically referring to the toys or the anime. While I'm aware there is an anime specific thread as well, I don't feel that briefly discussing the anime on this thread crosses any lines. :\
That said, I'll try to refrain from anime discussion on this thread from now on, if you'd like. Wink
*ahem* Anyway.

There seems to be a new Gangan Hobby Card for the Emblem Charge system.

It looks like a stamp card for different events/attributes. Kinda curious how it works.
@ BlackAce: I can't access the page, it's got a 404 error.
