Hm, the knockout experience can be really different with that stadium, but it is true that the other legal stadiums are becoming rarer by the day. That being said, you should look on Rakuten Global, as I saw one seller listing many old stadiums.

oki could help me with that yea?

Yeah, he probably could.
I sent him a private message with the links to Rakuten Global, so he will be able to purchase the stadiums directly, actually.
Not necessarily worth a new topic, so:

TAKARA-TOMY has reached the 9 million units sold for Beyblade Burst in Japan. 1 million were sold before the anime, and once the anime started being broadcast, the toyline's popularity increased and that spurred 8 million more units to be sold.

However, previously, 175 million units were sold worldwide by each of the first two generations on average, for a total of 350 million units for the first two iterations. TAKARA-TOMY claims that they plan to best both of those performances this time. Yet, Beyblade Burst was released almost two years ago, so the projected numbers do not seem to be adding up that much, with just nine million units being sold after two years in the home country... The second season, usually the most popular, is already ongoing.

Here was one of my previous posts about past sales numbers:

Let's keep waiting, I suppose.

I don't think it'll outdo the other 2 generations in sales. I can give a reason why tho it may not be fully applicable. I'd say it's to do with the current generation of young people. Like back when metal fight and first gen were a thing, kids were still into toys like beyblade and stuff. But right now I'd say the majority of kids of this gen taken on different paths and not necessarily good ones but I reckon they lost interest in toys in general let alone beyblade. I remember back when I was like 13 years old I was ripping it up in beyblade battles but now u just see 13 year olds stealing and smoking. It's sad really.
