Hello, oldbie looking to get back in - ForZ - May. 25, 2016
I'm not very good at these introduction posts, so I'll keep it relatively short. I got into beyblades around 2004 because my cousin thought they were stupid baby toys. He gave me basically everything he had including multiple stadiums, countless launchers and of course a heck of a lot of beys. Probably about 15-20 of them, all of which I still have.
In front of me I have:
Draciel G
Dragoon V
Dragoon G (Hasbro Recolor)
Dranzer GT
Dranzer F (Green and black version... can't find much about it.)
Driger G
Orca Diver
Trygle
Trygle 2
Voltex Ape 2 (x2)
Wolborg 4
I have a neat "Bey Shoot Support" launcher in red, yellow and orange as well as an HMS Defenser. That's not all I have, but it's what I dug up in my basement. Unfortunately, just as HMS was starting, my Walmart stopped selling Beyblades so I was relegated to looking up all the cool ones I didn't have on my mom's-boyfriend's computer (I remember thinking Bump King was really cool, I wanted it so badly)
Metal Fusion released a couple years later and even though my few friends laughed at me for still liking it I went along purchasing all I could. In a couple months I amassed quite a small collection which I could post for anyone interested. My Walmart stopped selling these ALSO so when I wanted to buy something I had to convince my family that we had to go to the Toys 'R Us to get a Beyblade that cost twice as much as the ones Walmart used to sell. It didn't help that it was a few miles away, which is a fairly significant distance considering we didn't have a car. I stopped collecting pretty soon after, and the most recent Beyblade I have is the Bakushin Susanow 105F that came with the Walmart exclusive game.
It seems I come back to Beyblade every 6 years so it's about that time again. I'm looking to get into burst and I have some Beys on order from HLJ (Valkyrie Spread Survive and Rising Ragnaruk G.R.) I've never been on this site before, but it seems to be a wealth of knowledge for older parts and theorycrafting so, here I am.

Hey ForZ, welcome to the WBO!
May I just that your intro was not short like you planned
But it's great to see an oldie back! Most of the beys on your list are easy/not too hard to find, but Plastics are a little bit expensive. The Dranzer F you are looking for is called Black Dranzer, and is pretty sought after, but you can't probably find it used sooner or later.Good choices for Burst; they are competitvely good if you are interested.
If you have any questions, please feel free to PM me!
