Hey, I recently watched AkirasDaddy's video on the CoroCoro Metal Fight Beyblade World Domination Book.
http://www.youtube.com/user/AkirasDaddy#...NCjamy1IVE
I thought it looked awesome, so I had an idea: what if I made my own book like this and sold it? Here's what I think it will have:
1: A list of all Beys with WBO stats. By this, I mean this: on the back of the Hasbro Earth Eagle, Earth has two stars for Defense (I think) and five stars for Stamina. In the WBO stats, it will have like five stars for Defense and Stamina, because it's been proven to have Defensive capabilities.
2: A list of all Metal Fight Beyblade characters. Not much to say here.
3: A list of all important people on the WBO. There will be moderators (of course) and other people.
4: A list of combinations. You can see all top tier combinations here.
5: A basic overview of Beyblade. You can see rules and such here.
6: List of every single part.
7: A collection of my comics. Check my thread in Your Creations, too lazy to post link.
8: Maybe, just MAYBE some kinda rare part or something. Still thinking about this.
Anyway, check the poll, I mainly want to see if I could sell it, I'll probably still make it anyway.

Okay, but I still need the opinion of a whole bunch of other people. BTW, the GET OUT! thing is funny, but not really offensive considering he's giving me a smile.

Elaborate? You can't just up and say "NO! You Suck!" without explaining why.
This does seem lika a decent idea, but I doubt it would sell. Nobody will let their kids buy a beyblade book, unless it is a manga.

I'm not talking about in stores, I was talking about on the WBO.

OK, great. Can you vote in the poll box please? Just so it's easier for me to keep track. I hope this turns out great, I may finally make some money, hah. BTW, here's the link to AkirasDaddy's video on the Metal Fight Beyblade World Domination Book, it should be more or less like it (except in English).

Will add it to the title.
Getting a book to be published so that it looks like it was made by a professional at least is very difficult and will probably never work. I also think nobody would really need one when all the information is basically already on this site.
sell it on the site and reward a face to whoever buys it :V people would buy it then.
but this does sound some what good,sell it at a store people see it,and they join :V

Hmm, not a bad idea... But I have no idea how I would walk into a store and ask them to stock it. Anyway, Kai-V, I know the information is already on the site, but has anyone made an actual CHART on the WBO stats of pieces? It'll be like a cool visual guide. Here, I should probably post WHY these are good ideas:
The list of every Beyblade (which is not on the site) will have a handy dandy visual guide to stats that makes it easier to make combos instead of looking around the WBO. Not to mention it'll look cool.
We are completely against statistics, so no, we do not have anything on charts ...
*sigh* Stats are useless. Plus what will you do when new stuff comes out?
EDIT: Beaten by Kai-V?

But they will be based on the WBO's findings.

Make a new edition... with all new blades... and pictures... and comics... and everything... uh oh...
no because stats are usaly wrong like how the rock wheel can some times be good at attack but when you get it is says its not at all good at attack. i think this thread will be closed very soon because it is useless... sorry. but you can always try i think it would be better if you just made a website on stats new beys and maybe a funny comic but no i do not think it will sell in stores also how will you get the money to make 1000 books every week or month... sorry but no this is not a good idea.
I say you should do it. Don't
What rare part? Hmm...

I agree. Don't
So what if you can get the info on here. You can take a book anywhere. You can't but the internet in your bag...
So when you do release this book, I'll have two options for info on beyblade parts basically.
1. Your book.
- Pay about $5 (probably).
- Wait for it to get shipped.
- When new parts come out, I'll have to buy new issues.
- Must wait for new revision to be released and published
- Pictures. Great visuals.
OR
2. worldbeyblade.org or WBO wiki
- Free (except for the cost of Internet)
- Always readily available (unless there's no computer or my Internet crashes)
- When new parts come out, people would already start testing it and such.
- Picture? Beywiki.
I don't think I'll be buying your book.

Hero actually makes a good point there. Ah, carp, I don't care, I'll still make it. I guess around the summer I'll start working on it, I'll definitely post scans. Will a mod please close this?
