School's out and summer's begun, and with that final ring of the school bell, a now three-year-old tradition comes back: HMS & Plastic Remembrance Day!!
This year, it'll be on July 13th & 14th. Several celebrations are planned for these special days of the year where we pay tribute to the generations of Beyblades that started it all!
Tournaments of the HMS or Plastic format!
The world's most active Beyblade communities come together to focus all the events on one power-packed day! Here's the current list of tournaments part of HMS & Plastic Remembrance Day:
Just like during the rest of the year, the top three winners in these tournaments can choose one of the following exclusive Face Boosters:
However, even if you don't place within the top three, you can still 'win'! All entrants of an HMS or Plastic tournament held on the Remembrance Day will also receive 1 extra Credit just for playing in the event! This means that you'll get 2 Credits just for participating, and that nets you a free Face Booster or more in our Blader Rewards Campaign!

Face Contest: Design a Plastic Beyblade!

That's right, one can't wait for the other! This time, the subject is related to the series that started it all: we want you to design a brand new Plastic generation Beyblade! Will you design a new member of the GT Series? A Beyblade seen in the anime that wasn't released? Or maybe something completely new?

Organized Play Rule Additions
We also have a few important rule additions for Organized Play:
- Credits: You now may only earn up to 8 Credits per week. For example, if you win one tournament (earning 5 Credits), and then place 2nd in another immediately afterwards, on the next day of that weekend, or any other day during that same week between Monday - Sunday (earning 4 Credits), instead of earning 9 Credits, you will earn 8 instead. However, Extra Credits, such as the +1 offered for participating in HMS & Plastics Remembrance Day does not factor in to this count.
- Winning Combinations: Bladers who place within the top three at any given tournament are now required to submit a list of the combinations they won with, and it is the responsibility of the host to submit it to the Committee along with the results/fees/etc. Preferably, we would ask that the host posts the list in the Winning Combinations thread and submit the list to us that way, but if a host cannot do that for some reason, submit it via PM and someone from the Committee will post it instead.
Exceptions regarding the posting of combos will only be made for Bladers who plan on attending large-scale, international WBO tournaments similar to BEYBLADE REVOLUTION in the near future. Situations like this will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. However, regardless of the situation, a list must be submitted to the Committee.
