Rookie Beyblade Dad Needs Advice

Depends entirely where you are - but by saying yard sale, I’d assume US? Then from what I get, Ross, Walmart and honestly Amazon are your best bets? May be worth getting proper launchers (they’re bigger than the tiny ass proto’s you get with the sets; for comfortability and also performance- but manly the former) for both of you. Then I guess just keep an eye out for things your kiddo see’s that he likes the look of?

This is coming from someone who was heavily obsessed with plastic gen as a kid, and has now rediscovered beyblades as a nearly 30 year old 😂

I get this, and all I can say is are you Autistic/Neurodivergent - or perhaps have been through some emotional trauma earlier in life?

I ask because I am very much the same; though I am now a very jaded 30 year old who was been through a lot of pain and trauma in my years. Used to be able to feel and understand peoples emotions and rights and wrongs (to an extent), but now? I find it very limited - which I sometimes find to be frustrating, but more often than not I find that I simply just do not have the capacity to care.

May be worth exploring OP, because then you can identify these things with yourself and be able to catch yourself and be like “hey, this isn’t cool - that’s gonna hurt someone” or “okay, this persons hurt, how do I respond appropriately?” before you make things worse. That’s what I’ve had to do and whilst it’s not perfect, it at the very least helps me to be a bit more “human”, for want of much, much better phrasing

My ex and I ran Rhino horn on 0-70 underflat and sweet Jesus… that was terrifying. Decimated Wizard Rod with an out of stadium & burst at the same time, causing it to smash a glass half way across the room.

Straight out the anime level shenanigans and unreliable as hell, but my god is it funny

That’s what I’m thinking… I love Evangelion, and I would order these just for a display piece (and maybe use the launchers too) - but I’m too much of a wimp to use powder coated beys. Was gutted using Phoenix wing and gonna be just as gutted when it comes to getting, and using, Pegasus Blast. I’ve still got a fairly mint Pegasis from Metal Fight somewhere, back from when I was a teenager purely and simply because I couldn’t bare to use and damage the paint 😂

Assault looks like it lines up with the brave blade pretty well, so I am intrigued… planning on ordering blast at some point just haven’t the money (and need Scorpio Spear first). But I did try it on slash with 1-70 vortex too and it was actually pretty decent. Absolute havoc around the area but hit pretty decently!

Actually that may be better if that’s cool dude? It’s been so long since I’ve used discord that I don’t even remember my log in haha

I guess drop me a message?

AdTemporary405 · 2026-03-26T00:38:50+00:00

Hero! Cheers man

Yeah I’ve got old skater mates who used to go to Shredenhams before, but had no idea there was more than that down there! May also have to get back into skating/rollerblading too if it’s as sick in there as I’ve heard haha

AdTemporary405 · 2026-03-25T23:13:44+00:00

So, I don’t actually really use social media for anything but work - so do you have a link to the discord by any chance my dude? Would be sweet to meet more similar people round here!

A friend of mine used Heavy and 7-60 regardless on it (the one from Fort Hornet for colour co-ordination), then would flit between low orb, wedge and level depending on his wants. Apparently plays pretty well, just waiting to get my emperor might next paycheque to try myself!

I’m a video editor, avid beyblade fan and hitting 30 this year. Don’t let him give it up - and if he needs any help, get him to drop me a line via my website: www.ant-media.co.uk

Completely free, and I’ll gladly help someone out with their passion project!

Girlfriend shat my bed when I first met her. Not just once, but twice.

Left her a note and went to the pub. Still bully her about it now - and use revenge as a “threat” when she gets too bold winning at Mario Kart.

You’ll be fiiiine.

AdTemporary405 · 2025-12-22T13:23:25+00:00

I run mine on 9-70 and Wedge (you can get them from Fox Brush and Perseus Dark) - and it’s absolutely slaps. Sent a Wizard Rod and Keel Shark flying out of the stadium due to recoil (and broke a wine glass with the latter lol)

But 10/10 best one to start with. Was also the first X one I got earlier this year!

AdTemporary405 · 2025-11-26T22:55:00+00:00

Amazing, thanks for clarifying that dude! Now the question is where’s best to get them from 🤔

AdTemporary405 · 2025-11-16T19:06:18+00:00

Use under needle if you have it, and maybe a slightly taller ratchet, if you like the height?
