Oh I saw what is supposedly that new Xcalibur, and I think it is legit.
See, the thing is, if this was fan made, fans would instinctively put the sword on the normal orientation, not this... wacky 45° angle. We'll get to that.
Anyway, my thoughts on what I saw so far. I do not like it. The DB blade looks too rounded for an attack type, the design feels a bit too simplistic for DB blade standards, and the shaping is just... I dunno, it feels so uncanny. Even with the wacky orientation, it's not pleasing to look at so far, nor does it at least seem promising for attack.
My theory behind the 45° angle of the sword alignment, is likely to incorporate some kind of gimmick, which seems evidenced by the metal sticking out of the launcher slot, and I assume it's like a mixture of Buster and any Bahamut bey, maybe even Kukulcan. I thought the orientation was just so they could use a new one sided armour to line up with the sword... but from what I saw, that's a 2 armour.
Not really feeling this one so far, it looks so underwhelming for a big release. Let's hope future developments change my mind.

No I don't plan on doing more yet.
I should probably go back to making fan custom Zero G beyblade concepts again
