They sure look real, even though the certificate isn't pictured it says takara tomy in the description and if it is not you have a valid reason to return it...

I bought mine from YJA, and actually that one article is the only resource I can see that mentions a CoA. I checked inside, and there is no certificate, but the sticker sheet is even branded TakaraTomy. If this is a fake, then (unlike the duped china Beyblades) it's a flat out illegal copy.

Again, going to read the Japanese sites later on, but I'll wager a guess that it's an authentic Takara product released outside/after the original run. Akin to a "2nd Printing". Not to mention that a CoA need not necessarily come from the manufacturer. There are authentication service providers who could likewise issue an industry recognized CoA (same as with a baseball card or comic book).

All that said, somehow or another there are far more than 100 of these in the world and I intend to find out why.

Update:

I found the original announcement from TakaraTomy, and it does not mention a limit of 100pcs being released. Does anyone know where that piece is information came from if not TT? Here's the link:

TakaraTomy Campaign Announcement

At one point towards the bottom, it states that 1,712 people who participate in the campaign will be chosen in a lottery to also receive an original sticker.


Another WBBA official article and no mention / photo of a CoA nor stated limit on the release quantity. Again, it seems there were more than 100 of these released - that is beginning to seem the only logical conclusion.

Article 2

I'm satisfied - these are almost surely authentic, and it stands to reason they're not as rare as perhaps we all thought they were. I am not done yet, still got the blogosphere to check out.

For certain any seller could just throw away that superficial piece of paper because it is not a "certificate of authenticity" : it just congratulates the person for being picked randomly and reveiving this rare set in the mail, in Japan.

that was incredible low end price.

I posted a set of plastics at $0.99 starting, let's see how much it will go.

I got outbid by a dollar. I was going to bid fifty but figured I could get it for cheaper so mad I didn't bid higher.

Wow, good job to whoever won that. Even if they are used, it is still an excellent price.

I wanted to bid on it, but you'd hear the usual sob story from me as to why I couldn't.

"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new: an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook." But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist can come from anywhere."

Have you seen this? Though not related to beyblade, but I see this coming in the beyblade market.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/360722199528?ssP...1423.l2649

This is in the news now, imagine if same thing happened to beyblade, and the media is all over it.

Yeah, that thing has only like what, 5 other copies in the world? But I think it is waaaay to overpriced for a Pokemon card

I am your dog.
Thanks for the sig, Rock kyoya!

Exactly, Bandid genbull is overpriced, hope it doesn't get any more expensive.

I bought a samurai Revizer a month ago, it came 5 days earlier than estimated and it came with an amazon-ordered speaker. Strange.

The Sea Dragon is actually Sea Drake, or the Hasbro version, so it's not as important.

Even the Thunder Dragon is Hasbro's and slightly disappointing ...

All the HMS are Hasbro haha.

Finding a Thunder Dragon from RBA1 is much more annoying now.

It is worth as your asking price or even a little higher, try selling the rare one you have in selling thread here in WBO.
You will get plenty of offer, you could get more money.

Thanks. I don't think I would get a bid but I increased the price just in case. I will try to sell separate. I know Zeus is high in price but which one of my blades are considered rare or high value?

Your price may not be far off in total, but your still unlikely to sell it in one lot like that. It's a simple matter of most people not having half-a-thousand dollars to drop at once. I'd recommend splitting it up - and you can check the plastics price list if you really want to know what people here consider 'fair' in terms of pricing. That price list is more a suggestion than a rule, but I don't see anything in your lot that is going to go to much higher than what's stated on the price list. Zeus goes for appx $75 when NIB (assuming its Takara), maybe $50 if very good / mint.

The price list is posted by username 'Kaizer' something (FYI)
