Way back in 2002 when I was just 12 years old I remember seeing the commercials for beyblades but no really paying them any attention until a kid that I hung out with introduced me to them, then I was hooked. My first blade was a Dragoon S and I took it around with me everywhere, even to church. Every penny I had went into blades. I collected and played well into the age of 14, and had at least 15+ blades, and the Driger and Dragoon Launchers. But sadly while at a local tournament all my gear that i had in a book bag disappeared, and I never touched a blade again... Until just earlier this year. I don't know how, I don't know why, but I simply
NEEDED to have beyblades. So I called up a friend and asked him if he still had his, when he said yes I asked if I could have them. When he said yes I was there within the hour to collect. And now I just ordered two MFBs from eBay and I'm geeking out because I can't wait during the week that it is going to take to ship them from Hong Kong. So my current list of blades and accessories is as follows:
Dragoon S
Galzzly
Draciel S
Wolborg
Wolborg 2
Galeon
Wing-A
Driger F
Remote Controlled Dragoon-V w/ RC Launcher
Driger Launcher
8 Standard Launchers, 1 Left 7 Right
9 Ripcords/Winders 7 Standard 2 Long
Soon to have:
Leone Starter
Sagitario Booster

Try to get some Takara stadiums.
I'm 20 and I still spend inordinate amounts of my disposable income on this hobby.
You're never too old. And it's great that you're getting into MFB, they're awesome. Leone was a good buy, and Saggitario has some uses. However look into getting BB-22 (Stamina and Defense Reshuffle) and a proper Takara Stadium.
Check out the "Purchase Consultation thread" and the "What MFB to buy thread." We have loads of great resources here, so feel free to use them

Yeah I know but I'm too poor to import otherwise I would have gotten a lot more than just two blades last night.
Also whereabouts you from?
Welcome to the WBO!
Also, as a side note, I am 19 and for the record, 20 is not the highest we have here.
Welcome!!! Enjoy your time here!

meh i'm not too worried. i'm used to being considered a geek anyway, i'm proud to have the title.
Haha, age isn't an issue as everyone here has already emphasized, I'm 21 and have gotten other 20+ year old adults to join very recently.
