Are fakes allowed in Tournaments? - xros - Jan. 21, 2022

Specifically a Dread Bahamut I have that is apparently right spin. 
I don't really know if it'd cause that much harm, as the whole beyblade is inverted.

I'm pretty sure they aren't.


RE: Are fakes allowed in Tournaments? - UnseenBurst - Jan. 21, 2022

Fake Beyblades are not permitted and are also Very Dangerous since they have Led in them and that can be Very Bad for your body. But you should most likely ask other WBO Members since they have More Knowledge about Fake Beys. But I seriously recommend being careful with that if you're planning on keeping that since Led is actually very Dangerous and Fake Beyblades are not allowed in Tournaments.

Answer to the title: NO. They’re dangerous, not accessible to everyone and have lead.


RE: Are fakes allowed in Tournaments? - xros - Jan. 21, 2022

Alright thanks.

NOT ALL FAKES HAVE LEAD! @TheRougeBlader UnseenBurst
I don't know how to explain this but i have fakes that have no lead whatsoever.
But sadly fakes are still not allowed in tournaments.

Hi, I noticed your question and have came to give an answer.

Fake beyblades are strictly forbidden from use in a tournament match. They (can) contain toxic chemicals such as lead that can be put into the air if the fake beyblade breaks. 

I suggest you take a look at the rulebooks if you have any further questions. They're a great source of knowledge on these things.

With that being said, they're technically fine to use in a freeplay scenario, as long as it is not a tournament match. Only real Takara Tomy or Hasbro products are allowed for use in a tournament match.

Oh, and don't get any ideas about trying to sneak a fake part into a tournament. Chances are, a judge will find it and point it out, which if it is an intentional act could get you disqualified from an event.

TBH I'm not sure... 
I don't know what brands I have I just know that they don't have lead (or at least some of em)

Do not fakes combined with the tip of a fake have a chance of being used in a tournament because that is pretty much all I have

No. Fake layers are banned in tournaments. Fake discs are banned in tournaments. Fake tips are banned in tournaments. If you don't have legitimate parts, please don't attend a WBO tournament.

They should always say Takara Tomy on the corner of the box. It should also say Beyblade along with the Beyblade’s Name. For a beginner I do NOT recommend using Amazon as it makes it difficult to tell apart real and different Beyblades. I recommend you use Beysandbricks.

https://beysandbricks.com/

They have amazing shipping, amazing customer service, and almost every Bey you find on there will be real, however if anything says unbranded anywhere DO NOT BUY ANYTHING THAT SAYS UNBRANDED. I can’t stress this enough, they are fakes. Shipping might be expensive if you’re out of the United States btw. Happy shopping

This is a problem i was completely unaware of in beyblade at all. Heavy metal poisoning is some spooky shiz, lead test kits are a fairly affordable and accessible tool these days if you have some that are possibly sus, link here to various available ( IMPORTANT EDIT it has been brought to my attention by user fabelavlon that these will often throw false positives. from what i can find its likely due to trace amounts elemental lead, its far less than 1% in the higher quality tin mix that real beys use, but is still enough to react with these highly sensitive tests. STILL USEFULL, but not as an option for bey testing beys. the included link is for PAINT TESTING im sorry i didnt do more looking into it b4 posting.) https://www.amazon.com/s?k=lead+test+kit i have to check some of my childhood tops but just better to stick with reals when buying now if we can help it. thanks for the advice yall, i have a few orders to cancel now...oof.

These test kits are for testing paint, not for testing metal. Even real beys can false positive on those tests. They aren't reliable for bey testing unfortunately. Just be aware of your purchases in the future and make sure they are TT or Hasbro official product. Spotting fakes isn't too hard once you know what to look for.

Boxes that don't have TT on the anywhere, prices too good to be true, Phillips head screws instead of tri-wings, unusually shiny metal. Among other tells.

Stay safe bladers!
