New Beyblades Metal Fury Destroyer Dome Set
« on: September 20, 2012, 09:14:52 PM »

Here are some photos and details of a new Bayblades product.  The video is intriquing and might add some fun at future get togethers.  It seems kinda small for battle tops but maybe smaller tops would work better.  Anyone have any experience with this?

That is interesting.  The beyblades spin on their sides, so they are not really behaving like tops.  They are more like wheels.  But there would still be the challenge of using the portholes as targets, so perhaps a battle with our tops is not out of question (but plastic tips would be a good idea).

Does anybody know which launcher is he using?  He does rip them very efficiently.

The floating battle arena is clever--isn't there a pool at the Rosen to add a swimming penalty to poor accuracy during battle?

Looks like some good summer fun.

I counted 28 spinners.  Wow, he is a serious beyblader!

I think he would really enjoy spinning peg tops.  He seems to get into this whirling activity and would enjoy moving to the next level.
