I was wondering since we've started doing the MFB sets whether we should do pages on the sets from the Plastic and HMS generation while anyone who knows about them is still here? I mean if we don't then no one will have any idea what was in them in a few years(not that many people really know now). Other good things would be limited ones which don't have item numbers such as:
-The set with the Black Dragoon V and white Dranzer V and Black and white customize grips.
-Set with the orange Dragoon V and green Driger V.
i think it is a good idea, (i think) some other sets are:
black dranzer and wolbrog 1 (phantom force) (hasbro)
Balck Dragon GT set
black dranzer ms and white advance averazer
These are no longer manufactured and no longer easily available to consumers. We have adapted to the new series, although it is unfortunate, I just don't see how it would be advantageous to expend the resources to enlighten people on things that will inherently be less available and in a few years when no one knows about them very well run the possibility of not existing anyway..
Did you ask one of the mods if this was a legitimate thing to post? Seems like there would be plenty of discussions about this...
Those were some of the ones I was thinking of. I haven't really seen much of the first set. Didn't it come with something like a box or a stadium?
i know the the black dranzer ms one did, i think the other black dranzer one did but not quite sure, but the hasbro one came with like a storage case, and the black dragoon gt came with loads off accessories like for the EZ grip

It's not like it's a lot of effort and considering people here actually like plastics I think knowledge about these sets would be a great shame to lose. Even in a few years they will probably appear every once in a while which is why info about them would be good. Um no since it's a good idea and if they want to close it they can... You don't know that. Assuming things never really makes a good argument.
I believe they should have pages in the Wiki. Let's gather the information while we can to benefit those who might come across one of these sets today or in the future.
I don't necessarily disagree: if you or some other members would put up the effort and create a few pages, I am sure there would be a place for them - I just don't see it being a main focus of the collective group. Good luck anyway, I do acknowledge its potential.
if you want more info on the black dragoon GT set ask evolution he has a NIB one
What does that even mean? Main focus of the collective group. I don't know if you noticed but the whole point of Beywiki is to preserve knowledge about beyblade and writing pages about sets/beys very few people know about anymore fits perfectly into that category.
Just saying it may be difficult to convince people to help, don't get all rowdy with me, son!
This should've been posted in the Suggestions thread before having its own thread made...
Obviously we should compile information on all sets and everything else, for collection resources.
I'm mainly asking for permission from the mods tbh. Most of them I could do myself. For the rarer ones with no distinguished name i'll need some help though. I have no doubt that the people who like and know about plastics and HMS will want to help though.
Make drafts, we will see.
Permission is why you should've posted this in Suggestions, rather than going ahead and making an entire thread for it.
Thanks, Hazel, I wasn't sure. That was useful for me.
Personally, I think there should only be one page for sets per series considering the length of the current drafts and that each Beyblade should eventually have it s own article anyway. Having multiple articles seems like a waste of space.
