I just compared it to my takara one and it is missing all the copyright information within, could you guys have a look to confirm?

Sorry for dropping a Monster Reborn on this topic, but...

...yeah, that's DEFINITELY a fake. The black EG (which was the first pic) was a dead giveaway; Dranzer GT's Reverse EG is *green*. The missing copyright info (all of it should be on the underside of the Attack Ring) & craptastic stickers with incorrect font all show it, and the bigger dead giveaway is that EIGHT BALANCE WEIGHT DISK...it's supposed to have a ten balance. TT Hongli (the company who did the fakes back in the Plastic & HMS eras) never did any of the ten sided WDs as far as I'm aware, and I'm not even sure if they tried their hand at making fake Magne WDs for Dragoon V2 & Voltaic Ape. Another giveaway is that the plastic color seems a shade or two too bright; Dranzers aren't supposed to be THAT bright a shade of blue...except for the Autochange Balancer, which was kinda like a denim blue or something.
Hey guys, i wanted to get the screw trident layer for 26$ on ebay, until i saw this... I mean its not a fake because the bey just got released and i have ebay money back guarantee? Even if i do get scammed, there's a way to deal with it. 11$ for the whole layer set, 5 people who are probably bots bought it, and 5 bots on the same exact day wrote 5 star reviews on his page. Lol what do y'all think

I highly recommend Amazon for bey shopping but Amazon has higher prices.

Why doesn’t Takara Tomy sue these companies that make the fakes!

I don't believe anyone knows where exactly to find the owners of the fake Beyblade companies. They can't sue until they find them (if they haven't).

Wouldn't take my chances.
Another point to be raised
all fakers use +screws while takara tomy uses triple wing screws.
I once saw a sad sad fake online, yet it had better reviews on amazon than the real one
Every amazon review done by an ignorant parent on the real one:
Ugggghhh,I had to put the sticker,ughhhhh there Chinese all over the box,china is known for bootlegs, obviously a bootleg,ughhhhhh,cant read instructions,ughhhhh.
Etc, etc,etc.
Ignorant parent review of fake:
10/10 ign,so easy, no stickers unlike China (bing bong) knock offs, actual engish etc,etc,etc.

I can't say for sure actually. The seller has the actual images, but not sure if those images are stolen. But still, it's a but risky with a seller w/ a 51 positive feedbacks. I would have to watch than buy.
Once I saw a listing on eBay for a Sr for 5 bucks

is this real?

No idea.  It does state it's made in Vietnam though, so I'd say it's genuine, especially at the price.  But I saw the same blade listed for £6.98 on eBay UK, claiming to be genuine from a Chinese seller, as it was so cheap, I bought it anyway, just in case.  It's on it's way now, so just waiting for it to arrive

Another factor to watch out for on eBay though, is Chinese sellers claiming it's the genuine article, but having a disclaimer at the bottom of the listing to state that the item may not look exactly like the one in the listing due to lighting differences when the photos were taken.

Sorry to hear it. If it makes ya feel any better, There's a new series of burst is coming out AND dragoon F (prob driger and draciel F too) are coming out
Love your vids btw
I recently ordered two beyblades from Chinese sellers. One was a nightmare longinus for $9.99 and the other was the god customize set for $35. The nightmare longinus was purchased from jidb569230dd_8. He isn't selling anything right now but he gave a tracking number which if you put it in a Chinese tracking website, the last update was its on the next flight to America. Its been like this since 12/10. The god customize set was purchased from yuti5353. He did not provide a tracking number. Both were purchased a month ago and it still hasn't arrived. Has anyone else purchased from them?

The longinus was fake for that price
God customize set is real, the bigger boxes take longer to ship
