Although I am rebuilding my collection (My fave version is the metal fusion gen) I do wanna know some tips and advice if you guys have any for me, good places to buy Beyblades, how to spot fakes, and everything in between. the more info the better, thanks!

Oh and what are bits, I saw them on my account and I have none. o.O 
Thanks and I wish you all a wonderful holiday season and an even better coming year! <3 (:::

Be careful with your face bolts, the very few metal beyblades I have all have worn face bolts since they can be quite fragile. Don’t over-tighten them. This may go without saying, but be sure not to imitate the anime and launch your beyblades on rough surfaces like concrete. That’s an extremely easy way to wear down or even BREAK your tips.

Unfortunately there aren’t many places you can get metal fusion beyblades if you don’t count the usual eBay, Amazon, etc. there is one that I know of, and its called ThePortal0. They seem to have a nice collection but I haven’t received any of my orders yet cos 1, I only ordered them recently and 2, COVID. They are a bit pricey, however they usually have quite a bit in stock when other stores don’t.

If you want to identify fakes, look at the name of the product. If it doesn’t mention beyblade and has some sketchy name like “metal assembled gyro” stay away from it. If it’s super cheap, doesn’t have good photos of the product, those are also signs of a fake. try looking at the reviews of the product you want to buy. people will have unfortunately learned the hard way but will share the experience and warn you not to buy the product.

I have no idea what bits are or how to get them.

Hey! Apparently, Hikikomori808 is right about the first part and the second (where to get metal beys, and how to identify fakes). Bits are like a online token, that you earn by either using bit boosters, or doing something specific for the WBO. For example, you can earn a bit by coming 2nd place in a tournament (I’m not sure if that’s true).

They have shinier metals and don’t have the hooks on the fusion wheels (right around the area where the launcher is placed). The biggest things is that they sometimes have wrong parts (frequently w105, wb, or f) and when you hit the wheels against other fakes they don’t make a cling sound. Good places to buy Sonokong/Hasbro/TT beys is Amazon (Hasbro uses titles like BEYBLADE Legends or will look like this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007UZXFIM/ref=sspa_dk_detail_1?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B007UZXFIM&pd_rd_w=KwsSh&pf_rd_p=7d37a48b-2b1a-4373-8c1a-bdcc5da66be9&pd_rd_wg=fvqDj&pf_rd_r=VGXSWX86GCKG8JX5JNCW&pd_rd_r=956dac26-73bf-484a-8050-6d1bfe003a9f&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEyNFcxUUJCUExRUkc3JmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwMzk5ODExMTJSMUdYWjhHQVYwQSZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUExMDM4NzE2MkNYWVZFOTRHU0M5QyZ3aWRnZXROYW1lPXNwX2RldGFpbCZhY3Rpb249Y2xpY2tSZWRpcmVjdCZkb05vdExvZ0NsaWNrPXRydWU= while TT/Sonokong will be labeled with the brand.
