Ah, thought the theme was main protagonists.

I did as well.

Once we get a good render with the stickers on it we might replace it, but personally I prefer Valkyrie without them. I don't think it would be a good idea to try and draw them on ourselves.

Can I have the PSD anyway?

Also, if we do have tournaments for these, I'll be the best in Toronto at it, I guarantee This one is for you, Kei.

ALSO OMG THAT NEW BANNER IS BEAUTIFUL, I LOVE IT.

We certainly will! This is your chance to redeem yourself.

Thanks!

Nope.

Wow, after seeing the whole thread properly, I forgot completely to say thank you, so thank you Kai-V!

Thank you to you, I really appreciate it !

Awwwwwwwwww yisssssssss, NEW SPINTOP HYPEEEEEEEEEEEE

Hehe, maybe this will breathe some energy back into the franchise and hobby. It has my interest, at least. I plan on getting some of the new stuff, so hopefully it turns out good. I'll try to log on more often now.

Looking forward to it and the continued updates, and as always, thanks Kai-V! Without you, who knows where this place would be.

No I don't plan on doing more yet.

I should probably go back to making fan custom Zero G beyblade concepts again

He checks in all the time, he just never posts. For that member, a lot of the old members are like that.

Wow this is amazing! But only three parts? That kinda lessens customizability, but hey still really awesome. The drive pieces look really sick.

6 God is watching and I hope you're prepared to face him

I do wish they made something more innovative, but still, I can hardly contain my excitement, I thought I would have to wait at least a few years before Beyblade came back, so this is still nice news and it will hopefully make the game more relevant again.
One thing I am hoping for is a removable "spirit" piece, because it seems like there is an engraved portion on top of the Driver area, does anyone know if that piece can be taken out? it almost looks like it, and it's very Bit Protector-esque, but if it's confirmed that it's a 3 part system, then I'm doubtful. I feel very strongly that the piece that is designated to house the "spirit" should always be removable, regardless of whether or not it's decorative, because it would be a bit frustrating to me personally if you had to change the spirit symbol whenever you change the Driver.

I think the part that you're talking about which looks like a '4', is not from the layer, but is on the driver, because in some of the other pics where the beys are disassembled, the center of the Layer is empty. I think it's supposed to be a stylized A and is meant to stand for Accele. I also noticed that the Wing and Spread Disks have 'W's and 'S's on them respectively. I think this a way you can ID the other parts in a Beyblade just by looking from the top view.

A few other observations/thoughts:
-In the one pic where you can see the launcher grip packaging it appears that the launcher grip will come with grip rubber. Pretty nice.
-I'm honestly thinking that the new stadium has the same bowl slope and tornado ridge as the MFB attack stadium. It's hard to tell, and we won't until users have it, but that tornado ridge seems to be just as shallow as the BB-10 from the pics and lighting. Hey, Kai-V does the B-08 packaging say anything about the stadium, like if it is the attack stadium equivalent for this series?
-I wonder if we'll have shenanigans with certain beyblades being left spin again. But I wonder if left spin will affect the burst mechanic when they hit right spin beyblades? I don't see any logos for right spin on the packaging and the original MFB did have 'R' on their packaging. I wonder if the launchers hook onto the layer or the driver, because if it's the latter, they might actually introduce spin gear equivalents.
-I'm surprised by how much the packaging looks just like the Hasbro Metal Fusion ones do. They parts are displayed separately in the packaging at an angle just like Hasbro did it. I'm also surprised that the logo has English characters being predominately displayed instead of Japanese ones. I think they really want to have even more of international appeal this time.
-I'm guessing the winders and light launchers are similar to the LL2 from MFB, since the winder looks like it has similarly spaced teeth.
-Not too surprising, it looks like there are no assembly tools this time. You probably just screw the parts together. Makes sense since you always going to be putting them back together after they explode.

I think the part that you're talking about which looks like a '4', is not from the layer, but is on the driver, because in some of the other pics where the beys are disassembled, the center of the Layer is empty.

I think this a way you can ID the other parts in a Beyblade just by looking from the top view.

I was going to mention that the symbol is on top of the Driver, but I didn't want to make my writing awkward and lengthy, I did notice that though. I still like that it's covered by the clear plastic on top.
Nice observation with the letters though, I was only able to make out Valkyrie's symbol, but I think you're right, they seem to be stylized letters to represent the Driver type.
One thing I have to say though, they simply must have some sort of spirit symbol when these officially release, Beyblade just wouldn't feel the same if they didn't have a symbol in the center to represent a spirit that it houses. Everything else about the new system is pretty exciting for me, but it's going to be pretty upsetting if they don't have something along the lines of a bit symbol, especially considering they have the perfect spot for it in the center of every blade. Without a spirit symbol, it might as well be like any other spinning tops that came out to mimic Beyblade.

Maybe they will show spirit symbols on them later during the release, or have a sticker for the top of the Driver, or maybe a separate little piece entirely, the only reason I can imagine for that to be released later is so they won't reveal the spirits too early, maybe they want to release them along with the characters of the new series.

Thankyou for finding all of this information Kai-V. I will wait until I get some of your reviews before I buy, But I will definitely make sure that my club members are aware.

Alright ! I've been waiting for this for a long time. Can't wait to get these.

Oh yo, I do not know why the pictures seemed so small when I discovered them and all, because I missed so much information. Indeed, it has more details on the BeyStadium : it is called BeyStadium Standard Type Special Ver. In fact, everything in the B-08 Start Dash Set seems to be "Special Version", which does not really mean anything ...

So, the previous Standard Type BeyStadium we had in Metal Fight Beyblade was a stadium that is portable and as lightweight as possible. Perhaps that means that other stadiums will actually have the cover fused with the floor, making it one single piece ? However, there is also only one floor to that Beyblade Burst Standard Type stadium, so perhaps they are litterally calling it the standard without it meaning that it will be more portable than the others, etc.


Thank you Raigeko13 and earthwolf1404.

Now the long wait until July....

I'm loving the new banner, the blues on the new Burst Beyblade looks really great being placed with the background.

Good work, once again.

Also, true lion gale force wall and fee-hee-heenay call

This reminds me a lot of Top Plate oddly ... Aesthetics are quite nice and looks interesting, but the concept I'm not too fond of. Having to put the pieces back together after every battle now seems a bit draining.

I'll probably end up buying the booster packs + stadium set and see how it goes. It might light my beyblade spirit again, who knows.

You will not have to put the parts back together everytime though, since you can still win by outspin and knockout, just like before.

Any online retailers that you all think will carry these? Buying new Japanese Beys on eBay is a joke and the prices are horrible at initial release. Do any of you just buy through a proxy, or did places like 1999/Hobby Search and AmiAmi sold Beyblades back during Metal Fight?

Interesting note on the stadium: the way it's designed, using the safety guard is now mandatory unless you're OK with a stadium having no walls. Which could be fun for some crazy attack-type battles, actually.

The new products will be available everywhere, litterally. I really think dimsum2u will be able to have them for great prices again, but otherwise I will simply use a middleman service to get them directly from Japan and as fast as possible. OkinawamTS will probably be among the best in that aspect.

Thank you Raigeko13 and earthwolf1404.

Thanks a lot for that info Kai-V! That is indeed really informative! In MFB the first stadium was the attack stadium it was really the only stadium with a tornado ridge (other than the super attack stadium and the super control stadium) and it is the only one we use for standard tournaments, because it is actually fair for all types. I've always thought that they should have called the BB-10 the balance or standard stadium, so other stadium would have been variations of it (mostly including a tornado ridge). That's good news that this stadium is considered a standard type and has a tornado ridge and I'm really hoping we can have interesting and competitively viable stadiums in the future.

The future is now. I never thought I'd live to see the day of exploding beyblades. I can't see the bottom of the launchers; does anyone know if the new launchers are compatible with MFB?

I don't think the new launchers are compatible with MFB.

does the burst gimmick work similar to phantom fox ms, the the blade is twisted on, or does it uses some sort of clips to hold it in place, so when the clips are released the blade explodes.

I don't think the new launchers are compatible with MFB.

As I could see from the side of the new launcher, I think the parts where you attatch the beys are wider than the MFB. Maybe I'm wrong... Well, if it's a new gen, probably we'll get new launchers. It was the same when MFB comes out.
