Hi!

I'm a mom of a 6 year old BeyBlade collector. I haven't yet purchased any from Japan (I plan on it soon) but I wanted to learn all I could about them before I made that jump.

Right now we are only collecting "local" BeyBlades sold here in the US.

For someone who is a complete beginner, I need to read up on all the acronyms used on this site. I have to admit - I'm lost at what everyone is talking about, but really want to learn to help my kid with his new found hobby.

We've already broken a few of them sadly, so I initially came here looking for spare parts to fix them and found an interesting community surrounding what I thought was just a simple childs toy - finding out there is a bit more involved in the game than I thought.

I picked up two more tonight for him and plan on making a storage case for him this weekend (one item I thought the market was completely missing).

TIA for any information you guys provide to this newbie mom

Idk what TIA means but congratz, I think this is a first for a blader "mom" on this site. any combo needs be helped on the "Build me a Combo" Thread and any other beyblade related questions can be answered on the "Ask a question get an answer" thread.

Haha... "TIA" means "Thanks In Advance"...

He's only 6, so obviously he can't be on here himself. So I'm learning with him...

I guess I'm going to have to use this "Mom" thing to my advantage.. hence my new signature

You are correct in believing that there's not much skill involved in blading. The entire concept revolves around a marketing scheme, where they encourage you to buy complete sets to increase customization possibilities. Welcome to the WBO, though.

@Jacksonian Well, there's always that lady who screwed with Dimusum?
