If you're talking about the Sagg value pack it came with a Launcher Grip not a Beylauncher.
Besides, it keeps costs down for us which is nice. I personally don't need 200 Beylaunchers.
Derp you're right, I don't know what I was thinking about the Saggitario pack.
Wow, haven't seen McFrown in a long time. Nice to have you back Frowny. Anyway, I don't think that Hasbro would make it one directional, it simply doesn't make sense. As far as I know, they've never made such drastic changes to a mold in MFB so I don't see how they would get away with that. As for the beylauncher l/r, I think they will release that seperately, and just give a left and right light launcher in the starter pack.
I'm not so sure they'll give it like that. The worst thing they could do is make a light launcher like the HMS launcher, which I think would be cool, just not AS cool as the Beylauncher LR.

I agree with most of this, except for the bey coming with 2 launchers. Hasbro hasn't released many left spin launchers, so I'd assume this bey would come with a left spin launcher only.
This is because the majority of beys are right spin, so there are a huge amount of right spin launchers that Hasbro released with pretty much every single bey bar L Drago. Get more left launchers out there through Perseus, then release the L/R on its own.
Hasbro has obviously been recycling molds from the plastics series, so I would really not be surprised if they came up wtih a slightly modified HMS Dual Launcher somehow. It just seems highly possible.
Wouldn't it be difficult to make a HMS dual launcher for the metal masters line though? because the ways the beys clip on are so different, and if they make a HMS hybrid launcher for Gravity "Destroyer" it will need to places to clip the bey onto, because if they put 4 prongs (2 for left and 2 for right) on the one "clip" it'd be had to fit the bey, because it'd be like trying to launch a right spinner with a left spin launcher, it'd increase the chance of breakage too... hope that made sense

no it doesn't
but I think it will be the same design with a ripcord, they will put ripcord slots in the front much like the HMS however the only problem would be if the cap is is and the rip it in the wrong direction... by by prongs XD
Or they could do how Takara did with the DPL, have removable prongs, the only problem with this is that the 8 year olds that Hasbro markets to would try to swallow the prongs or misplace/break/lose them. The thing BeyFan said seems more accurate, in this business, you gotta try to make as much money as you can, hence why TT is gonna sell the Beylauncher LR in metallic red on its own in a month or two.
Proof:
BeyLauncher LR

Just change the prongs to Metal Fight Beyblade prongs or something. I am sure they can 'save' that mold.

You are posting that as if we had not known for more than a month that TAKARA-TOMY was going to release a Beylauncher LR separetely. Also, there is no confirmation or actual information that says that it will be metallic red or even red, seriously.

I hope it's red, Kai-V. I hope it is. Or metallic blue. (Very off topic, I guess.)
Beyblade is just getting better and better. Even Hasbro is getting better. And like you said earlier about the changing the prongs to MFB prongs, how would it work for left AND right unless it's like the DPL, where you can switch them out? Oh wait, it worked for the HMS! DER, Coasters!
>dat red L/R
Sexy. I'm getting that.
Also I went to walmart today to see if they finally got a shipment of the new MM beys. Guess what they had? A STADIUM LOL. Not a single bey at all. Tomorrow I'm going to one of the busiest walmarts in the state, and last time I went (two weeks ago) they had MM boosters. I can't wait to know if they have the beys themselves or not. Also if I find a thunder libra, I'm going to take the Thunder wheel out of the box, go up to the deli near the front, and using their weight to find out it's exact weight xD

No, it'd still need a second set of prongs. The HMS launcher kind of clips onto the BP of the bey, so that is why it was simple to have one launcher for left and right spin. The MFB prongs is what is going to cause the problem.
Does anyone know all the Metal Masters Beyblades that have come out yet? You can side out the legends.
Hey, NZ bladers.
I saw metal masters in Albany Toys r us!
The legends, ray, galaxy and lactera.Awesome!I will test the hasbro ray "stiker" soon.

No what i meant was the prongs wont work, because they won't fit the bey, well, it'll prevent it from coming off, because if its spinning in left spin, the right spin prongs will still be stuck onto the bey because the wont come off. i'll draw it.
http://tinypic.com/r/e16t0x/7 thats what a single directional prong looks like.
http://tinypic.com/r/30t05ly/7 thats what the prong would look like using the HMS mold launcher, assuming everything else is the same. the bey won't work like that. because the clip for the other spin direction will "retard" (physics term, not derogatory) the spin of the bey in the desired direction, because the bey might not clip off well enough or prevent it completely, like when you dont clip your bey into the prongs properly and it gets stuck to the launcher.
NUTS THE LINKS ARENT WORKING!!! but basically try visualise a left spin prong joined to a right spin prong.

at the moment its just Galaxy Pegasus, Ray "Striker" and Thermal Lactera, more are coming out in a few months, unless hasbro already have released the GP and MLD battle set, then Meteo L-Drago is out too, but as far as i know, that hasnt been released yet.
yes..I get what you want to say(though I cant see the pictures)..and I think I have a small solution for that..if we make those prongs face both ways with a small place for their attachment in the centre(which is quite strong)...then we may be able to spin them both the ways..e.g...the prongs on the right of attachment will be used for right spin and those on the left of the attachment can be used for left spin..cant it?..but the attachment portion must be really strong or else it might break if we launch the bey forcefully

I see, but then theres still a small chance of breakages, honestly,i don't see a way around this other than hasbro only giving a generic Left light launcher. i would love to see Hasbro release a L/R beylauncher, perhaps as apart of a bonus pack like they did with the launcher grip for flame saggitario. another way around it is if hasbro make a L/R light launcher, but that is pointless and plain ridiculous.
Well, you are correct amit, about the prongs thing...
About Hasbro releasing a Beylauncher LR separately- Dude! I don't think they are gonna do it right away, you know.... Its been AGES since LLD was released, still, they don't care to release a Beylauncher L.... That is actually our first requirement...
Also, no one has actually even seen the Hasbro starter of Gravity Perseus, so we will actually have to wait to see if they are good or not; I mean, hope they are not fragile...
Hopefully they will give a Beylauncher L with Gravity Destroyer at least..in case they do..then I am surely going to buy it...but most people prefer String launchers to Ripcord launchers and if I am not wrong..left string launcher is already released isn't it?

As far as i know hasbro hasn't released a "left spin string launcher"..Correct me if I'm wrong but I haven't heard of it being released..
Oh yes..it was by TT...I was wrong(as always
)..still it will be better if they release it after Gravity destroyer as an accessory
Heh, I'm guessing, as McFrown said, it'd be like a double-pack idea. EX. Sagg. Double. Or, the Mobile bey Stadiu 2 with Rock Zurafa. The stadium exclusively shows off Zurafa/Giraffe than the stadium.
Anyways, I'm heading off to Target soon, and well, I've heard reports of a friend of mine seeing Ray Striker there.
I'll check it out myself. I'm going ti the P Consultation to see if I should get Striker and G Peg, or Striker and Thunder Libra.
