It seems like they will not be using the term "4D", especially if it becomes true that the Metal Wheels do not have several parts anymore.
SUPER ULTRA MEGA GO BOTTOMS
THE MOST POWERFUL BOTTOMS IN BEYBLADE HISTORY!
inb4 this is true. Lol
A name that sounds like what they would rename 4D Bottoms could potentially be Fusion Gears... just sounds like something they'd name. I kinda hope this is what they name it, tbh XD
Rai... if that is what they name them, I owe you 100 bucks, no joke :P
i think hasbro will call the 4d bottoms and tips fused as PORFORMENCE TRACK
I'm not entirely sure of where to post this, but Corus (Nelvana's parent company) had their Investor's Day, and revealed that Beyblade now stands at 120 million units sold. This figure doesn't specify whether or not that includes both the Metal Fusion, and G1 lines, or if it's just Metal Fusion, nor does it specify if it's a Hasbro total, or Hasbro + Takara Tomy + Sono Kong total.

As well, the goal is for Beyblade to become an "evergreen" franchise - meaning a property that is constantly successful for long periods of times rather than big fad bursts. Good luck.

Lastly, it seems there are a few Beyblade apps for phones, and tablets in development. No real information was given.
Ugh, please don't be something like a stat checker.
But I have a gut feeling that it is.
Thanks for the info To! Much appreciated! :]
Maybe they'll make an actual bey game on Android... Grin

Thanks for the info! At least beyblade aint dying soon.
they may just call them drive bottoms
"Bases" seems more likely than "Bottoms" from past experience but who knows.
We can rule out "Drive Shafts" cause that actually sounds cool.
A drive shaft is something in a motor vehicle and entirely unrelated to anything in Beyblade... and the only 4D bottom that looks shaft-esque in appearance is B:D.
B:D matters? They'd be naming them after the majority, not a bottom that would be released much later down the line.

B:D is inferior to TH170D and AD145WD combos anyway, for most situations. Impressive solo-spin, sure, but honestly? Meaningless. It cannot take hits at all.
Remember that old set posted a few months ago that a lot of people thought was fake? The Ultimate Gift set? Well...

Turns out it's real Gasp

That was released weeks ago.

Gasp I did read, and I didn't find any posts for it until I finally decided to use the search engine. Once I used it, there was only 1 post for it, that was posted 4-5 weeks ago. Incredibly easy mistake to make seeing how not a lot of people read 4 weeks of posts made in a thread.

Try doing that first to avoid being snapped at.
To what measure does an issue become a dead horse, exactly?

Anyway, Hasbro should fill in the February-March toyline with special releases, or come up with something other than Tornado Tops. Which would likely continue on in Metal Fury if I'm not mistaken.
Hasbro doesn't have that much of metal masters left, so they're probably going to make recolors, and create new XTS random stuff. They could possibly make actual new, hasbro exclusive beys. They could improve the stadiums. Overall, Hasbro is going to have to be creative in the next few months.
I always said the way MFB was made definitely adds room for awesome WBBA Edition recolors!

Regardless, I'm getting some. Grin

They are, to the best of my knowledge, made of the same Zinc Alloy as the real MWs. They can also launch and battle just like full-size ones, albeit a bit goofy due to poor balance and weird scale.

HUH? They can battle? Is it with a winder like the real ones? I thought that they were just keychains.
They come with a miniature Shooter and Winder, and can launch and battle, yes.

It would be ridiculous to use them against a full-size one, though.

mabye they will finish the legand series
legadn wolf
legand gemios
legand scorpio
ect
Completely baseless speculation has no place anywhere, especially not here.
I just think some wheels were not meant to be basically broken down and remolded to fit clear wheels. The Wolf, Escolpio, and Gemios Wheel are examples of that. We have Killer for a Gemios lookalike anyway.

We always have those boosters Takara made waaaay back for Hasbro to have fun with. I like the Leone 105F. :3
