Beyblades

Remember those? The tops that you put into the plastic arena in an attempt to stop the other from spinning? Similarly to Yu-Gi-Oh, if you could ignore the horridly-dubbed TV show, it wasn't all that bad. The show got canceled though, and around that time I stopped playing with them. I recently found the old shoebox I kept them in, and, being in a position in need of cash, I recalled that tournament I entered in with them about two years ago with the cash prize of $75. Anyone know if they still do those? Because my old custom designs are still intact, and I actually made it pretty far in the aforementioned cash prize tourney, and I figure I could tinker around and make something to win a few local tourneys if they still have them.

Oooh, I think I still have the main guy's launcher thing, with electronic stuff and everything. Man, those things were sweeeet.

 

As for your question though, I doubt they still have tournaments or whatever, seeing as the show's lost its popularity a long time ago...

I remember playing those with my dad all the time. No brothers or sisters and they didn't make anything that you could launch two disks with or did they?

Gah, the fact that my brother and I didn't lose any eyes to those things was amazing.

 

I never knew that they did tournaments.....neat.

Good times. I remember launching them off the balcony onto my trampoline, and watch them slam into the springy platform and get launched into the air about five feet. The battles I had were legendary since I designed some great 'blades. My friend actually got his dad to build a custom weight for his.
