Takara Tomy Beyblade Burst - Upcoming Release & Rumor Thread

(Jan. 28, 2023  2:29 PM)PRINCEcharming Wrote: I think that the problem you have with Beyblade reissues, that you don't get with most other toy lines, is that of interactibility. Beyblade is, at it's core, a competitive game made for an audience whose purchases are made for them by their parents and other relatives, who probably won't know the difference between the main product line, and the reissues, and which ones are compatible with which launchers etc. In order to avoid that kind of confusion I think it would be necessary to commit to a single system, and then maybe produce "remakes" similar to the Burst versions of classic Plastic-gen Beys seen recently.
I don't particularly mind if we get faithful recreations of older Beys or not, I'm more interested in seeing a return to greater levels of customisation and a focus on performance like we saw in HMS and MFB, with more classic-style aesthetics and motifs.
They could just slap "adult collectible" on it.

What's the point to try to guess that many names when we don't know anything about next gen ?

I mean, it's just a list of Beys you WOULD LIKE to see appear...

It simply doesn't fit in this thread. 

This thread is about "Upcoming releases and rumors", so we are are waiting for it to give news and eventually some thinkings based on informations we already have or rumors.

This one was a pure speculation/idea, it belongs to the appropriate thread. If we're all posting what we would like to see, here, it would be a flood mess and important informations would get drowned in it.

I mean, not to be too strict, a simple "I wonder if they would make beys based on Planets and satellites" would be more constructive than a 20 name drop of a speculated "prediction"

MFB did it more or less with constellations and then solar system, but a color scheme based on the universe, at least for a part of the beys would be kinda cool

I think having more beys with motifs based off the solar system would be nice
I'd prefer to avoid repeating previous themes and motifs, ideally the whole Pokemon-paradigm if possible. Rather than magical creatures being the norm, they could become an element of the storyline's escalation. In terms of the designs of the Beyblades themselves, I've previously mentioned that I'd like more customisation options that look better together; one way to achieve this would be to separate the marketing identity from the parts, in a fashion. They did this, to an extent with Metal Fusion, where the Energy Rings and Facebolts were the only part designed to convey a specific character, and the rest were effectively generic parts that didn't confer any specific identity on the Bey. HMS had the Advanced set, Striker, Guardian, Eterner and Averazer, which were built around the type of Beyblade rather than the gimmick or a particular Bit-Beast.

To this end, I'm thinking they could replace the concept of a particular series, like Dragoon/Pegasus/Valkyrie, with different manufacturers, each with their own unifying theme, gimmicks, motifs, and colour schemes, similar to the weapon manufacturers from the Borderlands video games, if you've played those. Parallel concepts like magical creatures, human characters and their battling styles can then be layered on top of this to create more unique marketing identities.

One of the reasons I would favour a system like this, is because previous systems have tended to match particular gimmicks with specific characters and colour schemes, with only a small number of truly generic parts, like the SG Flat, Semi-Flat and Sharp Blade Bases from the plastic generation for example, and I think that in addition to the issue of potentially getting a Bey with a part that has little or no competitive or aesthetic value, it also creates a disconnect between the fantasy and IRL elements of creating a combo. (a form of ludo-narrative dissonance, if you will) IRL you're not going to take your home-made, bootleg parts to a tournament, but in the manga/anime there are guys with parts that literally nobody else on the planet has used, or will ever use. I think this also helps to make sense of power-creep, because these manufacturers are competing with one another for market-share. (I also dislike the idea of a magical evolution of what is essentially supposed to be sports equipment, I think the purchase of new parts and and construction of a new Bey in the original series made vastly more sense)

Alternatively, I wouldn't mind seeing a series that takes inspiration from more mundane places, like series of Beys whose parts are designed with motifs derived from stationary, jewellery, fashion, gambling, vehicles, etc. Consider a flat rubber tip designed to resemble the eraser on a pencil, or a tip with a mode change gimmick that works like a ballpoint pen. Perhaps a spin-stealer with rubber contact points made to look like a large tyre from a tractor or a monster truck. How about an attack type with contact points made to look like cascading dice, battling in a stadium that superficially resembles a roulette wheel? I think there are a lot of places where you could look for inspiration that aren't the same rehashed mythological creature/pocket monster, that would still be rooted sufficiently in the elements of popular and historical culture that they would be identifiable to people and mean something to them in terms of characterisation.

Interesting but are you sure this is for Beyblade?Because we’re getting something announced on 3/21 unless that is release date of beys while this battle hobby project is announcement.

It's not beyblade in 2 weeks

Oh yeah I've seen this aaaaand it's one of the worst animated shows I've seen, like it makes Dynamite Battle look like a masterpiece. I'm surprised this franchise is potentially getting a comeback with how obscure it is though.

Dang even dB better than this no wonder they wants reboot (most likely)
I dunno if that's the case. Japan really loves bugs, thats why we have Bug type Pokemon, and the Insecticons. Anywho, I doubt I'm really going to watch this, at least there's other stuff to watch for the no beyblade content drought.

Feels like alot of things have been rebooting b damen to bottleman, burst to whatever comes next (obviously), and now this like what? But it's not really  a bad thing. Hopefully Zoids reboot soon tired of wilds...

Yeah it’s fake unfortunately 😔 hopefully what we actually get is close to this
In my opinion, something like that would be probably be bad, because it would recycle everything as nothing more than a crash grab

Even if it wasn't bad and was real it almost certainly wouldn't live up to the hype it would create

so it's better that was fake
