Beyblade is a brand
name for a line of
spinning top toys
originally developed and
manufactured by
Takara Tomy, first
released in 2000. The
toys usually include a
'launcher' – a device for
bringing the spinning top
up to speed, with either
a separate or integral
rip-cord. This 'ripping'
action causes the tops
to be ejected, at the
end of the movement.
Players eject the tops
into a plastic arena or
into a pan with a
slightly dished base,
where they
subsequently strike
each other. The last top
still spinning wins. Skill
can be used in the
deployment of the
tops, which significantly
influences the way they
move around the arena,
and subsequently
interact. The different
styles of device
respond to collisions in
different ways, so
advantage might be
gained from using a
particular type of top
against a particular
opponent.
Both the toys and their
name were inspired by
Gustavo Murcia, who
also drew inspiration
from; "Beigoma", a
traditional spinning top.
The concept is similar
to Battling Tops, a
board game developed
by Ideal Toy Company
in 1968. The
introduction of the toy
corresponded with the
broadcast of the
Beyblade anime
television series of the
same name. In 2002,
Hasbro began to sell
Beyblade toys
internationally (under
license from, and
produced by, Takara)
along with a
coordinated country-by-
country rollout of
localized versions of the
TV series. The Beyblade
toy line went on to be
one of the most popular
toy lines in the world
from 2000 to 2005.
[citation needed] In
August 2008, Takara
Tomy released a new
generation of Beyblade
with a metal outer
layer; the first
incarnation of the toy in
three and a half years.
from the Basic System
through the Heavy/Hard
Metal System,
Beyblades were
categorized as Attack,
Defense, Combination,
or Endurance Types, but
when the Hybrid Wheel
System was
introduced, the
Combination and
Endurance Types were
renamed as Balance and
Stamina Types,
respectively. These
Beyblades may have
pictures on them that
symbolizes a creature
(known as a Bit-Beast
or the Face-Bolt ) which
shows what the
Beyblade does, or looks
like. In Beyblade Metal
Fusion, they have
symbols on them that
represent one of the 88
named constellations in
space, while in the 4D
series, beyblades are
named after planets
and constellations ex:
Pegasus, medusa (in
the original) and
sagittario (real name
Sagittarius).

I´m pretty sure all of us know what beyblade is, otherwise we wouldn´t have signed up to WBO. For those, who still don´t know it for whatever reason, we have beywiki. No need for you to make threads like this.
