Reproduction

I was wondering since Takara is bringing back beyblades, will they be reproducing the old blades too?
I doubt it, they've not got much to gain from doing it so they'll probably devote all their resources to the new line.
It's highly unlikely, other than maybe a "Classic Collectors"-style series similar to the Transformers "Robot Masters" line...I doubt it though
I doubt it but would carp lose it if they did.
I dunno, fresh production of HMS blades at least would be good. But the plastics would be pretty fail =/
I was hoping for new HMS Blades and the originals to be made, there are'nt
many parts out there.
I don't think they will. But it'd be good if they reproduced some of the originals

Quote:fresh production of HMS blades at least would be good
Seconded.
Quote:But the plastics would be pretty fail =/
True. But perhaps they could remake a few of the plastic blades in MFB form.

Then again, that wouldn't exactly be reproduction.

Considering the family-friendly nature of takara-tomy...

*chuckles* Good one.
New system is incompatible with old system.

VERY unlikely.

What I would like to see is a master set, a big set of 1 piece of every beyblade ever made.

I would pay a lot for that.
Rai jesus that is a sexy idea. Speechless
Not at all.

I would love to see some sort of BEYBLADE TOURNAMENT SET released where like, the best parts ever are all put into a single package. Ugh God that idea makes me wet.
Or ENTHUSIAST SET

with extra bearings, special weight disks, spare winders, launchers, grips, tips for certain parts (like Dragoon S etc, things that would wear away), ball bearings, bit protectors, like one big package.

IMO, I think to round things up for hobbyists, Hasbro / Takara should release:

1) Master Collection
A reproduction of every single bey, part and accessory, ever produced, with different molds and different pieces (so, One Driger MS C AR and One Driger MS J AR), with no enthusiast items or big cases to keep down the cost for people that want to buy several, this is so people can rebuild their lost collections and just finally seal the deal.

2) Tournament Kit
A big storage unit for collectors, and a tournament kit unit, both with removable trays. I envisage each tournament and enthusiast kit to come in a little trays called units which you can just slot into your collector's kit box, kinda like the HMS boxes. In addition you would have several trays for individual beys which you could get seperately or have a bunch come with the set. Basically, you have a base unit into which you can slot extra part sets etc so everyone can have their own custom layout. It would come with a few extra parts as standard and even a compartment on the bottom for a stadium.

3) Enthusiast Kit
This is a unit for the tournament kit full of spare specialist parts, in particular, 3 straightened winders: 1 dragon, 1 regular and 1 HMS, 3 spare launchers, 1 LS, 1 RS , 1 HMS, 4 ball bearings, 1 tip for each of the major and minor blade bases (in labelled compartments) (like a replacement tip for Dragoon S, for example), 4 bit protectors, 4 sets of clips, 4 NSK bearings, 1 of each Weight Disk ever made.

So, this is how it would work out:

If you have lots of beys, you buy a collectors kit to store it all in, and you put all your current parts in unit for each type and then you slot them in your collectors kit. Over time you buy new stuff so you slot in new unit (about the same size as a vhs cassette) of new parts and stuff, and you may buy an enthusiast kit etc.

Tournament week comes, so you take out your tournament kit and remove some units from your collectors kit and slot them into your tournament box. You buy a few enthusiast kits and slot them in as well, then slot in blanks in the remaining spaces and keep things like cards in there. Then, you close the latches (maybe even use a key, whats to stop this being high quality) and lug it off to the tournament, where you just undo the latches and slot out the units you want.

SORTED.
that was a lot of effort for a hypothetical idea that will never come to fruition

That'll take away most of the value of rare parts.
I don't care about value!

Rare useful parts are the worst! It's like, "oh I want to use it, but it will break."

rare parts, like rare cards in a card game, makes no sense in a game based around strategy.

all it makes sense is as a marketing tool

I used to always hypothesize about creating a card game with no rarity levels. However, the thing with Beyblade is that no parts are really particularly rare; they are mostly hard to get now because they are so old. So a kit like this would be awesome.
