Takara/Tomy vs Hasbro, what are your thoughts for mfb? - The Shredder - Apr. 27, 2009
I was just looking thru a thread, and i saw that brad mentioned how he knew that hasbro would inevitably release mfb for cheaper.
This got me wondering; what are everyone elses views on this? as it's most likely going to happen either way

i hope they keep the metal.But,my country only sells takara versions onli so.....
RE: Takara/Tomy vs Hasbro, what are your thoughts for mfb? - The Shredder - Apr. 27, 2009
well australia didnt get takara with plastics but maybe with tomy on board we will, i just have a feeling hasbro will use a lower grade alloy that won't have the same strength or density as the takara/tomy ones meaning they wont last as long, and probably wont perform as well

They may deem the metal "too dangerous" lols.

The thing i like about hasbro is how simple they make things. Hasbro dont realease boosters and random blades without launchers you always know what your going to get and you get everything with it so you can use it. Atleast in australia its like that i cant say the same for the other parts of the world. But i think hasbro will either realease light wheels or metals and thats it, not both. At the moment im leading to metal ofcoarse.
RE: Takara/Tomy vs Hasbro, what are your thoughts for mfb? - The Shredder - Apr. 27, 2009
im actually thinking hasbro wont get to release mfb, because now takara are with tomy, why would tomy want to give it to their biggest opposition

Cheaper compared to what?
I know I could offer the first MFB Boosters for 7,00-7,50€ each.
I just hope whoever will sell MFB won't omit the strategic aspect of Beyblade like Hasbro did with the plastic/HMS generation.

its sort of like the excitement when u open cards, or used to, hoping youll get something useful or rare

i personally hate them its like their being treated like yugioh! cards lol but that might just be me.
RE: Takara/Tomy vs Hasbro, what are your thoughts for mfb? - kaiserEXE - Apr. 27, 2009
at least there's a technique to "feel" the packet if there's a rare card.
RE: Takara/Tomy vs Hasbro, what are your thoughts for mfb? - MuchWow - Apr. 27, 2009
i donno why but i have the feeling that if hasbro did sell those... they will sell the hws beyblades only! and wont even mention anything about the regular mf beyblades.

but that doesnt take stuff away from what you said before about the whole excitement factor?
RE: Takara/Tomy vs Hasbro, what are your thoughts for mfb? - The Shredder - Apr. 27, 2009
not really, it means you just have to work harder with what you've got, and surely takara wouldnt fill packs with all useless stuff, id imagine each pack would contain something of at least a little use, the only thing id be worried about is getting large numbers of the same thing, but hopefully they will be "truly random." as in there is similar numbers of each part that goes into the mix, not like yugioh, because blade parts arent officially rated in rareness

Yes.yes it does,which is the reason why the shops do not let us touch the packs.

ASIA FTW!!!!!!!!

RE: Takara/Tomy vs Hasbro, what are your thoughts for mfb? - Neeek - Apr. 27, 2009
I rekon they'll just mess up the stadiums and alter a few beyblades like in the previous generations.

This thread is dumb, sorry. It will be cheaper since you don't have to pay import fees, one less middleman. They will release them, market them as the greatest thing since sliced bread and the world will continue to move on.
Hasbro isn't some evil company that is out to take over the world. They are a business trying to make money. Plus, you do realize Takara and Hasbro blades will be made in the same factory. Why would they complicate things.
Honestly I don't see this thread going anywhere other than baseless Hasbro bashing so I'm locking this.
