Hyperblades, correct? Or the normal Legends?

I guess Dollarama is one of the best options for regular

Just Regular ones. Hyperblades Online is $5.00 but there's nothing left in the stores, if you find any walmart store, adjust the price for the online price

Thank you Zankye, but I think that Dollarama is better because it is cheaper Smile

There is officially no longer a beyblade section at my local MD Target. There was still one the last time I checked at the one near my college, but all that was left at this one was one l drago hyper blade, a stadium, and a beyraiders? Set

Same here on the California area. There are no beys of any kind, just a single red stadium and thats it. I do remember that Hasbro was coming out with something new for 2015, what happened to that?

yep, in a Toys R Us, I saw a huge Beyblade sign, but no beyblades lol

Tease R Us then? Maybe they are waiting for a big order, I hope.

For the ones who still want to have a chance to get Beyblade Shogun Steel beys, Dollarama are starting bringing them for $3.00 each. Legends are pretty much gone

Something I don't get- The Beyblade Shop.

I mean, it's great and pretty cool, but why would Hasbro and Nelvana put so much into it, if they knew they were pretty much done after Shogun Steel and the few Legends releases. If they thought the brand was selling badly, I don't understand why they'd put money into exclusive shirts and everything. I noticed the shirts are all not available now, though.

If they planned on doing more with Legends or even more side-series, it'd make more sense, but I don't get why they did it so late into the series.

may be a miss in marketing organization

Just for the record, Beyblade Shop is owned by Nelvana and as nothing to do with Hasbro in terms of selling beys on their own , they were selling beys via amazom.com , Hasbro always had hasbrotoyshop.com but they never sold legends that is kind of confusing to understand, more confusing is that Nelvana sells to Hasbro the rights to sell beyblades around the world except some countries in Asia, but doesn't buy direct from Hasbro any beys, go Figure

But surely Nelvana and Hasbro both agreed on creating the Beyblade Shop website, no ?

To our Knowledge No, Hasbro got Hasbrotoyshop.com doesn't have the need to have a another website competing with themselves, reason probably why Nelvana went with amazon.com, this are "grey" waters our understand is Nelvana would help in away to promote Legends reason why You saw more Legends in Canada than In The States, and because they have the rights for Beyblade, Nelvana created the t-shirts that I don't know where are they now, Very strange, at least we know that we help them a lot in our channel and in return we had one complete set and another six Legends that we appreciate.
Jan. 22, 2015  3:16 AM
 
That's pretty weird. It's still odd that Nelvana knew the brand was taking a break, so it doesn't make sense why they would do that and what happened to all of the shirts they were promoting.

I know when I ordered when they first opened, I got refunded because they claimed "the style of the shirts were not meant to be released yet", but assumed it was just the one I ordered.

may be they have a secret about the beyblade brand :o. it's like the anime. at french teletoon they pass beyblade metal fury again and again... why they do that it's like 5 times showing these season. to keep interest in beyblade? what's the reason?! no one know it at all :\

I wasn't sure whether I should post this here or in Beyblade Random Thoughts. I definitely wasn't going to revive that one thread, that's for sure LOL

It is odd that they are replaying Metal Masters and Metal Fury, its as if they are trying to make us so tired and sad that they are out of ideas, ON PURPOSE. Maybe they are just setting us up for a crazy new series, thats what I hope.

Is this the right thread to post this? Actually I'm not sure.

However, to respond to this, I'm guessing IF they are, they mostly will throw some carppy flash cartoon with bad humour or replace it with these noisy and annoying shows, sorry, just had to get that out.

Anyway, my Home Bargains somehow has every type of beyblade product EXCEPT the actual tops, which is complete bull!

I'll go ahead and post this here since it somewhat relates to the hobby.

The show is just a big commercial for the toys; If they stop showing reruns, they might as well stop producing tops as well because it will negatively influence sales. Even if they are reruns from a couple of years ago, there are still kids out there who have never seen it and are likely to pick up a few tops after catching an episode.

I doubt they'll make a flash series, they're more likely to commission something from a Japanese studio but I would imagine they would only take those kind of measures if they made their own new line of tops.

Just to let everybody know that some Dollarama stores are getting reloaded with more Beyblade Legends for $3.00, it's not all the stores but already we saw in 6 different ones in GTA (Toronto Area)

Black Staff version is way cooler. Cool

Can I ask where the comments about a 2017 relaunch are stemming from? Is that just speculation based on the gap between the end of the Beyblade G-Revolution line and the start of Metal Fusion, or is that informed knowledge? If it's the former, that's not faulty logic. Brands like this are cyclical and Beyblade has been too successful to be down for the count. That said, I'm not sure it's going to happen that soon.

Nelvana are largely responsible for Beyblade's global expansion and have been involved since 2002. They're currently preparing a television reboot of Tatsunoko's 1970s Gatchaman anime. How is that relevant to Beyblade? The Gatchaman reboot is scheduled for 2017. Nelvana has also boasted about how they're "putting the Beyblade team back together for this one." Would they want two eastern properties competing for the same boys 6-11 market in the same span of time? d-rights and Tatsunoko are both involved in this Gatchaman reboot. Both companies were also part of Beyblade Metal Fusion, though Takara Tomy's ownership of Tatsunoko has since diminished significantly.

Hey, how have you been hah ? Thank you for keeping us updated, it is certainly interesting.

Oh snap, look who decided to drop in (Internal fangirling). I made a thread about the Gatchaman reboot when it was announced but it was ignored.
