Real or fake? I read somewhere SOK is fake but then it says Sonokong in small letters underneath it?
They look fake? So I say Fake!
Those are real... That seller is also very reliable. Just be aware that because those are all Sono-Kong Beyblades produced prior to G-Revolution, they may not fit with other Blades made by Hasbro, Takara, or other Sono-Kong Blades produced after G-Revolution as well.
Oh yeah! I wasn't looking at the seller!-.- he's cool!Smile

What's the difference between pre G-Revolution Sono-Kong versus after G-Revolution Sono-Kong? Are they better quality before or after, regardless of whether the parts fit with other blades?

And if they won't fit with Hasbro, Takara, or other Sono-Kong blades from after G-Rev, then will they fit with Hasbro/Takara blades from before G-rev?

Oh, and anyone know if that seller ships to Canada?

Is this fake? I don't think it's real, since Dragoon GT goes for way more than that. Also, the box says B-26 instead of A-112. However, in the item description it says 'Takara'

No, it's real. That's just the electronic version.
I just want to say that buying from Amazon or WBO for beys is much better than ebay except 88powerpig88.
very very true I got my Takra Tomy Phantom Orion and Ultimate dx set from him Smile buuut that's kinda off topic I think that would go in the Amazon.com topic Smile
Hey, guys, I would like to know whether this is real. The url is as below:

There isnt much details given by the seller apparently
That is most Definetly real.

May I know why?
It's because it is the Secret beyblade of RBA3 which was made by Takara.
Well yes, I understand that it came from RBA3 and it was made by Takara but is there anything else to further justify its genuineness? My concern now is that the description given by the seller is so ambiguous.
is this real or fake http://www.amazon.com/Beyblade-Dracel-Sp...=draciel+s it says sok but i dont know if that stands for sonokong or what?

Yeah it's real. SOK stands for Sonokong.
From what I've heard, those (Sonokong, Korean) Beys have a harder time fitting on TT and Hasbro parts. That only goes for plastics, though.
It stands for Sonokong.
OH YES!!!!! Thanks a lot leone19
So I whipped this up today, its a little informative slide-show on fakes. It just goes into fake companies a little more than the OP.
It was a powerpoint with animations and stuff, but sadly, you can't post documents on the site Tongue_out

Let me know what you think, and if it is helpful or not, etc.

If you want the original to see the animations and stuff, PM me, I'll email it to you or something.

I know its similar to the OP, as its meant to help people, haha.
that's really good Grin maybe we could add it to the OP but everything needs to be in a spoiler... oh and another thing people should know on ebay where theres a majority of fakes the best way to check is by scrolling down and looking at the discription it usually says *These beyblades are not made by Takara Tomy or Hasbro but they are the same quality and completely compatible with the other companies*

Thanks for the compliments, I appreciate it. It might be a good idea to add it to the OP, haha.

Well as I mentioned in my presentation, its obviously fake when the Metal is too shiny, as well, which can be seen in some images on ebay.

Yeah that's real, it's in the bottom right corner. I believe that was their previous logo before they merged with Tomy.
