RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - Hazel - Nov. 08, 2011 I did already request that people stop speaking about this. You're even quoting yourself when you got a response to your question. RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - To - Nov. 08, 2011 (Nov. 03, 2011 8:12 PM)IfritDulux Wrote: I didn't say they weren't selling well, I said they weren't selling as good as Bakuten Shoot used to. And are the sale figures from ToyWiz just for their website? I tried finding some sales statistics on some of Hasbro's various toy brands (including Beyblade of course) but I didn't find much at all... It's not good to assume, via Corus Entertainment's (Nelvana's parent company) Q4 Earnings Report from October 26, 2011: "Corus Television has a strong portfolio of businesses that are growing successfully, both internationally and at home. Our international merchandising business continues to expand an impressive 66% for the year, which contributed significantly to our overall revenue growth. Our boys action brands, Beyblade and Bakugan, and our preschool brand, The Backyardigans, drove the lion's share of merchandising revenue for the year. Beyblade has become a blockbuster hit in the international marketplace, generating even greater success than it did the first time we launched the brand in 2002. " Unless you think those Beyblade flashlights, t-shirts, DVDs, and trading cards are the main revenue generators... Hasbro has an Investor's Day presentation this week. I'll see what I can dig up from there to support or deny that claim. RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - Jaygrazer - Nov. 08, 2011 Just to add on: Beyblade has enjoyed incredible success over the past year, and next year is also shaping up nicely, with over 80 million tops sold worldwide since its relaunch. Beyblade has become the top boys' action property in key territories. In fact, toy sales are strong in every territory and the brand is now taking off in Latin America (YEAH!!! BEYS IN DOMINICA REP!!!), especially Brazil. In support of sales efforts, a series of national Beyblade championships is currently taking place in 40 countries and will culminate in a world championship event to be held here in Toronto in March of 2012. In addition, all major broadcast partners are locked up and on the air with the brand's new 51-episode series, BEYBLADE:Metal Masters, which launched in the fall. RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - Kai-V - Nov. 08, 2011 See, what did I tell you all. It is cool if you like Plastics and HMS more, or just the Bakuten Shoot Beyblade anime more, but Metal Fight Beyblade is more popular than any previous series ... Thank you for that, To.

Sorry for having no evidence in those posts, And thanks for pointing me in the right direction as well, I feel real stupid now lol RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - Raigeko13 - Nov. 09, 2011 (Nov. 04, 2011 1:11 PM)Kaiba Hiwatari Wrote: videoIs it just me, or do those ripcords appear longer than standard ones? Maybe my mind is just messing with me... (Nov. 05, 2011 9:29 PM)IfritDulux Wrote: [video]I saw one of those just the other day, haha. I'm kind of starting to like them, it looks like Hasbro is coming up with better designs for them overall IMO. THAT Gasher Pack I've never seen one of those before... And it comes with a regular Hasbro LL. Not interested XD RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - To - Nov. 10, 2011 Investor's Day report: Hasbro has sold over 72 million Beyblades (unclear if this refers to Bakuten + Metal Fight, or solely just Metal Fight), and has 6.5 million users who've logged in over 20 million battles on Beyblade Battles.com, with the average user spending just above 25 minutes per trip to the site. Key to 2012 Beyblade is "innovative new ways to play". "Whole new expression of Beyblade" to debut at Toyfair in February. RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - Imperial - Nov. 10, 2011 (Nov. 10, 2011 2:46 AM)To Wrote: Key to 2012 Beyblade is "innovative new ways to play". "Whole new expression of Beyblade" to debut at Toyfair in February. How can they say that when they are supposedly getting rid of multi-mode wheels? Of course they could be referring to the 4D bottoms with this though but it doesn't really seem like the right thing to base the Metal Fury series on if they don't follow it. RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - To - Nov. 10, 2011 What they said could literally mean anything. Last year, we found out they meant the XTS, and RC lines. RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - LionheartSM - Nov. 10, 2011 Thanks for the info To, I'm excited to see what Hasbro come up for beyblade in 2012.

RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - LionheartSM - Nov. 10, 2011 I don't think they will ever make the BB-10 just like TT's, as far as I know it doesn't meet their safety standards and they would have to modify if somewhat, I don't know, giant craters in the middle of the stadium for a super fun action fun mega awesome experience.... fun, and some titanium barrier around the stadium so the beyblade doesn't jump out and kill you with it's awesome *cough Tobuscus* ;D Edit: Ninja'd by Hazel RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - Kai-V - Nov. 11, 2011 Apparently the world championships are supposed to include Europe, the Middle East and South America. I wonder if they are waiting for February or even the beginning of March before holding those qualifying events, because it is getting really late ... RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - Ga' - Nov. 12, 2011 http://www.toywiz.com/beybladeparts1.html YES TOYWIZ HAS DONE RIGHT! They have finally added all the single parts of season 2! And the TT 4D RBs too! This is so convenient, especially that blue Meteo wheel. RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - Hazel - Nov. 12, 2011 (Nov. 12, 2011 12:45 AM)GaHooleone Wrote: http://www.toywiz.com/beybladeparts1.html These prices are also INFINITELY more reasonable than their previous ones, which is just extraordinary. I think I may, at some point, even have a use for this function of their site, now! RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - BeybladeStation - Nov. 12, 2011 Sorry, I have not been keeping up-to-date with the Metal Masters toyline. But (I know "BeyHunting" is not to be spoken of) I saw huge amounts of: Hades Kerbecs Meteo L-Drago Ray Gil Is this normal? I bought the Hades Kerbecs but have to return it, unfortunately for a personal reason. RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - Hammer Hades - Nov. 12, 2011 I have also started to see wave 3 beys like meteo (pretty much only meteo) but not in such large numbers (probably one or two, which shop did you go to and where do you live?

Yes it is. A few pages back there have been spottings of those beys. RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - Raigeko13 - Nov. 12, 2011 Yeah there have been some sightings but IIRC those were out of the States. And that's great to hear that they're finally starting to come out! @Toywiz THEY MUST KNOW OF CH120'S USE WHICH ONE OF YOU PEOPLE TOLD THEM Haha, still not the BEST prices, but much better compared to their previous ones. CLEAR XF FOR $7.99?! RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - sum 472 - Nov. 12, 2011 I told Hasbro in there survey on their website. But yeah, the page is still inconsistent, Bottom Sharp instead of Ball Sharp, S acronym changing from Sharp to spike etc. RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - Epic Blader - Nov. 12, 2011 ive been also seeing execive amounts of ray gill grav perseus meteo l drago RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - LionheartSM - Nov. 12, 2011 It seems Beyblades247 has already got Meteo l-Drago Assault, Gravity Perseus Attack and Killer Befall, he says there from a US seller, so they must be in shops somewhere, just letting you all know.

HMMMMM... *Googles 'Hasbro Wholesale'"* But thats COOL! Hasbro really stepped up distribution. RE: BEYBLADE: Metal Fusion/Metal Masters [HOBBY] - Squeak - Nov. 12, 2011 I don't think this has been posted yet. New Beylocker with White Grand Cetus, found it at Target, but it's not a Target Exclusive.
