Ah, so many news has been revealed since I last
updated...
The upcoming releases that are known are: BB-82
Random Booster Vol. 5 [682 yen] (nothing else about it is known, although it
will have a new 'rare' Bottom, however it is made of only plastic), BB-83
Booster Pisces DF145BS [682 yen] (the return of the very rare Metal System
Beyblade), BB-84 Metal Face Remodeling Ver. Clear [367 yen], and BB-85
Metal Face Remodeling Ver. Orange [367 yen].
Also, the missing chapter as well as the newest
CoroCoro issue have been scanned thanks to Miingno. You can see both the new
chapters and the hobby pages by clicking on the following pictures:
The first nine episodes of Beyblade Metal
Fusion have aired on YTV in Canada. After the tenth episode, however, YTV will
go back to episode 1 in order to let the United States catch up, with Cartoon
Network which will start showing two episodes every week beginning on June 26th.

We have confirmation that Bakushin, from the
new limited Beyblade that will be included with the new DS game Bakushin Susanoo
90WF, has a white Metal Wheel, not a Light Wheel.
A
mysterious character from the new movie was revealed: he is called Bakim, seems
to know Helios, and owns a Dark Aquario 145WD.
Moreover,
a new Metal Fight Beyblade game for the PSP will be released in Japan on October
21st 2010. It is called "Metal Fight Beyblade Portable Transcendence
Reincarnation! Vulcan Horuseus", and will come with a new limited Beyblade,
Vulcan Horuseus 145D.
Two
games will come out both in North America and in Europe this holiday season in
English: Beyblade: Metal Fusion - Battle Fortress (the equivalent of Gachinko
Stadium) for the Wii, and the Cyber Pegasis game for DS. It is not confirmed yet
whether they will also include Counter Leone and Cyber Pegasis, like their
Japanese versions, however they do acknowledge the existence of Counter Leone, so
it might be a good sign.
As a side
note, the official Beyblade TV Tokyo website was updated, finally. New pictures
can be seen, and the layout is better than the one for the first season.
Official
images of BB-80 Starter Gravity Perseus AD145WD and BB-81 Launcher Rubber were
released:
Gravity Perseus' Clear Wheel has two modes: the first you can see is called Defense, and the second, when only one red eye sticker can be seen, is named Counter.
Several
pictures of Sol Blaze and its parts have been posted on the official WBBA blog:
A new special CoroCoro limited Beyblade
will be released in Japan: Ray Unicorno Aurora Ver. Pictures of it can be seen
in the latest CoroCoro scans.
The
titles for the upcoming Japanese episodes are: 62-The 4000 Year-old Secret Move;
63-The Bey with a Hero's Name; 64-Russia, Land of Cold; 65-Sublime! Cage
Deathmatch. Actually, 62 and 63 have already aired, and new characters have been
revealed. They were added to the Metal Fight Beyblade Character Profiles
page.
Screenshots up to episode 58
are up on the Beyblade
Spirit Gallery. I am very late in my screenshot taking and
uploading...
The World
Beyblade Organization now has a French forum! So everybody who speaks French
should go there to speak about Beyblade. Also, whoever organises a
tournament anywhere in the United States this summer will win three rare Face
Boosters DIAMOND!

Beyblade
Metal Fusion premiere, toys and anime! + New releases
DATE:
05/15/10
Many very interesting updates here. First,
Miingno will be able to scan the missing CoroCoro issue from April.
Second, Beyblade Metal Fusion products
have been spotted in Toronto Toys 'R' Us and Wal-Mart! This means that
all Canadians should just keep checking their local stores, because the new
items should be available very shortly.
Then, the two-hour special on YTV has just
ended. For a dub, it is much better than the dub Bakuten Shoot Beyblade had for
all three seasons. Most of the dialogue was kept intact, and not many scenes
were edited out. In episode three, however, they removed the fire scenes at the
beginning, when Ginga talks about his enthusiast at beyblading and when Madoka
yells at the kids to stop ruining her shop, yet for some reason they still
showed Ginga having his speech, reusing some footage. Shortly, I will create a
page similar to Bakuten Shoot Beyblade's about Nelvana's cuts and edits.
Otherwise, most of the voice actors are surprisingly very good. Here is the
cast, exclusive to Beyblade Spirit at the moment:
Gingka - Rob Tinkler (Voice actor for many characters in the previous Beyblade series.)
Kenta - Lisette St. Louis
Madoka - Barbara Mamabolo
Benkei - Jason Deline
Doji - Juan Chioran
Kyoya - Peter Cugno
Takashi - Cameron Kennedy
Osamu - Julie Lemieux (Also from the previous Beyblade series.)
Blader DJ - Dan Petronijevic
Concerning the upcoming releases, the 1974-mshr
Japanese blog has updated with photographs from the latest CoroCoro issue. Here are his pictures as well as the official images for the next releases:
Also, the character who uses Gravity Perseus in
Metal Fight Beyblade is called Julius Caesar.

Chapter 20 was scanned by Miingno, as well, as
usual, as the hobby section. One CoroCoro issue is missing before that, and that
is probably due to an issue that happened earlier with the means of payment.
Hopefully another issue can be sent to him, and he will scan it whenever he
can.
This is a clearer picture of the parts Sol
Blaze will have:
Rock Giraffe, owned by Wang Da Xiang:
BeybladeBattles.com has also finally been
opened! The accounts you can make (anybody can register as a regular member
because no products have been sold yet, so no codes can be found) do not seem
very permanent however: sometimes everything appears to be restarted. With a
regular signup, you can only battle against the computer though, not against an
apparent real person somewhere in the world live. The new song "Let It
Rip" can be downloaded, and I added it to the jukebox. In more important
news, the Killer Metal Wheel has been dubbed "Evil" by Hasbro, and the
Aquila Clear Wheel is now called "Eagle". On Beyblade Spirit, only the
Japanese names will be primarily used however.
The first wave of releases for Beyblade Metal
Fusion can be seen on Toywiz.com.
Basically, this is the list: Storm Pegasus 105RF, Storm Aquario 100HF/S, Dark
Wolf DF145FS, Dark Bull H145SD, Rock Leone 145WB, Rock Aries ED145B, Dark Gasher
CH120FS, Flame Sagittario C145S, Storm Capricorn M145Q, Rock Orso D125B, Flame
Libra T125ES, (Electronic) Storm Pegasus, (Electronic) Dark Wolf, Faceoff Lion
Gale Force Wall (Rock Leone and Flame Bull), Faceoff Pegasus Tornado Wing Attack
(Storm Pegasus and Rock Aquario), Faceoff Darkness Howling Blazer (Dark Wolf and
Storm Aries), Faceoff Sagittario Flame Claw (Flame Sagittario and Rock Pegasus),
Faceoff Red Horned Uppercut (Dark Bull and Storm Leone), Super Vortex Battle Set
(has two random Beyblades), Launcher Grip, String Launcher, Pegasus Thunderwhip
stadium (blue or yellow), Flame Sagittario + Launcher Grip, Assembly Chamber,
Mobile Beystadium.
The title for the first few episodes to be
shown on YTV in Canada have been released. It seems it will indeed be a two-hour
special this May 15th at 12:00 PM. They are surprisingly extremely close to the
Japanese titles:
Episode 01 - Pegasus has landed (05/15/10 at
12:00 PM and 05/21/10 at 7:50 AM)
Episode 02 - Leone's Roar (05/15/10 at 12:00 PM and 05/28/10 at 7:50 AM)
Episode 03 - The Wolf's Ambition (05/15/10 at 12:00 PM and 06/04/10 at 7:50
AM)
Episode 04 - Charge! Bull Power! (05/15/10 at 12:00 PM and 06/11/10 at 7:50
AM)
Episode 05 - Vengeful Gasher (05/22/10 at 12:00 PM)
Episode 06 - Aquario's Challenge (05/29/10 at 12:00 PM)
Episode 07 - It's Our Special Move! Sagittario (06/05/10 at 12:00 PM)
Episode 08 - Merci's Dangerous Trap (06/12/10 at 12:00 PM)
Episode 09 - Leone's Counterattack (06/19/10 at 12:00 PM)
Episode 10 - Heated Battle! Gingka Verses Kyoya (06/26/10 at 12:00 PM)
A new trailer for the new Metal Fight Beyblade
movie has been uploaded:
Some new screenshots have been added in the
Metal Fight Beyblade Explosion album, and the episode guide was updated.
Moreover, the name of the last member of the Wang Hu Zhong team was revealed:
Zhou Xing, pronounced "chawe shing".

is open!
DATE:

Finally, Beyblade.com
was opened last Thursday. It basically only redirects to Beyblade.ytv.com, the
Beyblade mini-site YTV has though. The only hobby element on the site is the
commercial for the toys, which most people find is good. As the video
stipulates, the song, "Let it rip", will be downloadable on
BeybladeBattles.com whenever that site actually opens... Otherwise, Ginga's name
was really changed to "Gingka", and it is pronounced "Jinga";
Kyouya to Kyoya; Daidouji to Doji; Ryuuga to Ryuga. All the other names and
special attacks were kept intact. The character's voices in the dub are mostly
so-so or 'just fine' compared to their Japanese ones, but Gingka's and Ryuga's
are very terrible in everybody's opinion. The actual voice actors are not known
yet.
These are the four videos that could be found
on Beyblade.com (they have better frame rate there as well):
The preview of episode 13 was actually removed
from the official site a few hours after it opened. Only Canadians could view
it, and I had at least the opportunity to capture some of the audio. DranzerX13
later made a video out of it using footage from the Japanese DVDs. All the main
voices can be heard on it.
In other news, Beyblade Metal Fusion will be
broadcast on Cartoon Network in the United States on June 26th at 7:30 AM.
The next few releases after BB-81 are currently
extremely vague, but they should be as follows:
BB-82 Random Booster Vol. 5 (a regular one, not
Light) - 683 yen BB-83 Booster B (this will be either Virgo, Aries or Pisces) - 683 yen BB-84 Metal Face A (new colour) - 386 yen BB-85 Metal Face B (new colour) - 386 yen BB-86 Beyblade Deck Entry Set (another set of Beyblades) - 2625 yen BB-87 Light Launcher (new) - 386 yen BB-88 Starter B - 1260 yen BB-89 Booster C (this will be either Virgo, Aries or Pisces) - 683 yen BB-90 Surrounding Item (will help shoot at a precise point) - 1260 yen
This is a clearer picture of Sol Blaze, whose
parts are still unknown:
Episode 54 screenshots have also
been uploaded, and Mei Mei and Li Chi-Yun's profiles were updated.

DATE:
04/21/10
It is very late, but the issue that was holding
it up at the shop has been resolved and the following CoroCoro magazines should
come to Miingno at the same rate as the previous ones. Here is the final chapter
of Metal Fight Beyblade season 1:
As usual, there are also interesting scans of
the hobby section of that CoroCoro issue, notably on Mercury Anubis 85XF and
Galaxy Pegasis W105R2F.
YTV has officially announced that Weird
On Wheel would be back in summer in Canada. Weird On Wheel is a tour
where YTV organises Beyblade tournaments all over Canada. The tour dates will be
published on May 19th 2010. YTV will also open a small website for Beyblade
Metal Fusion on April 29th: beyblade.ytv.com
The beyblade that will be included with the new
DS Game "Metal Fight Beyblade Explosion Bakushin Susanoo Attacks!" is
called Bakushin Susanoo 90WF. It is difficult to see Bakushin as being anything
but a Light Wheel at the moment, however considering the price is the same as
all the other DS games, it should be a Metal Wheel painted white. Hudson has
officially opened a page for this new video game: http://www.hudson.co.jp/beyblade/ds3/
Takeru, the owner of Susanoo, can easily be seen as well as his Beyblade:
Moreover, the official site for
the new Metal Fight Beyblade movie, "Metal Fight Beyblade the Movie: VS the
Sun; Sol Blaze, the Scorching-hot Invader"/劇場版メタルファイト
ベイブレードVS太陽
灼熱の侵略者ソルブレイズ
has been updated:
The Metal Fight Beyblade summaries have been
updated up to episode 54. The page for the Metal Fight Explosion episode guide
can be accessed here, or by going to the normal Metal Fight Beyblade guide and
clicking on the link at the top. Character profiles have also been added or
edited: Mizuchi Reiji, Li Chi-Yun, Mei Mei, Yuu Tendou, Ginga Hagane,
Hikaru Hazama, Ryuusei Hagane, Wang Da Xiang, Masamune Kadoya. Screenshots
of the new opening and ending have been uploaded, as well as images of episodes
52 and 53. Check the Beyblade
Spirit Gallery.
Finally, two new songs were added to the jukebox:
Galaxy Heart, the opening for Metal Fight Beyblade Explosion, as well as
its new ending, Oozora wo koete juke. The jukebox is magical at times:
everyone should try it!
To Canadians: keep checking your local toy
stores, and if you ever find the new Beyblade Metal Fusion products, you should
contact me so everybody can learn the good news!
Expect
to watch Beyblade Metal Fusion soon in Canada! + New Releases
DATE:

UPDATE:
More news below this one on Beyblade: Metal Fusion! Pictures of the upcoming
releases in Japan.
YTV will start broadcasting Beyblade Metal
Fusion in Canada on May 15th 2010, from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM, and every Saturday at the
same time afterwards.
"BEYBLADE: METAL FUSION – SERIES
PREMIERE
Following the Let it Rip phenomena that took over the TV screens and playgrounds
in 2002, Beyblade makes its much anticipated return with a brand new generation
of characters who take on the battle between good and evil. Competing for
dominance with their spinning Beyblade tops, the perilous organization of the
Dark Nebula is vying for world domination. The only person standing in their way
is teenager Gingka, who struggles to find his strength to honour Beyblade and
save the world. Produced by Nelvana and Japan’s d-rights, Beyblade: Metal
Fusion will air Saturdays at 12 p.m. beginning with a feature length episode on Saturday,
May 15 at 12 p.m."
Note: It is probable that "Gingka" is
still just a mispelling.
Apparently one Toys 'R' Us in Canada has
already started selling Beyblade Metal Fusion products too early. If you find
any, come tell us on the World Beyblade
Organization. On that subject, to make it easier to purchase Metal Fight
Beyblade items from Japan to every Beyblader around the globe, the World
Beyblade Organization has started an Authorized Beyblade Dealer Program to help
people choose the best and most trusted sellers, as well as get the best prices
with exclusive discounts!
As for Metal Fight Beyblade Explosion,
summaries and character profiles will be updated and added. A new tournament
called Big Bang Bladers will make multiple teams representing several countries
fight against each other to determine which is the best. Ginga, Masamune,
Tsubasa and Yuu will represent Japan. A new team, Wang Hu Zhong, from China, is
formed of different members including Lee Chi-Yun and Mei Mei. The former will
most likely own Thermal Lacerta, and one of them uses the Metal System Aquario
105F.
Of course, there is a new opening as well as
another ending, which should be added to the jukebox as soon as it is
possible.
These are the images of the other releases of
April:
Moreover, there will be two new rare Beyblades
released this year: Sol Blaze, which will accompany the Metal Fight Beyblade
movie because it is owned by the main enemy, called Helios; Susanoo, which of
course comes with the third DS video game called "Metal Fight Beyblade
Explosion God Susanoo Hurricane!", and which is owned by a boy called
Takeru.
The new movie will be released or shown in
Japanese theatres on August 21st 2010.
Keep looking: there should be more interesting,
or at least 'full', updates soon!

Infinity
Libra GB145S, Metal Fight Beyblade ~Explosion~ (Baku) & Beyblade Metal
Fusion
DATE:
04/01/10
Masamune's
profile has been created. More information will be added once he appears
in the anime and manga. He owns Ray Unicorno D125CS.
Concerning the new releases, Galaxy
Pegasis seems to be a very strong attack Beyblade, and Ray
Unicorno also has a lot of potential. CS' rubber appears to wear
down quite quickly though. The new Aquario
Wheel somehow weighs more than the original. The 3 Segment Launcher Grip
has all the functionalities of the regular Launcher Grip, except it does
not accomodate the Beypointer. Several videos have surfaced on YouTube
featuring the new releases in action, so check them out!
As for Mercury Anubis 85XF, as was
expected, bladers in Japan will be able to exchange a high number of
BeyPoints against it. Moreover, TAKARA-TOMY will reward them for a lower
amount of points with a new Beyblade: Infinity Libra GB145S. The Infinity
Metal Wheel looks exactly like the original Libra, and also like the metal
counterpart of the Heat Light Wheel, which was the only Light Wheel that
did not have a metallic version. Hopefully it is not too overpowered this
time.
Beyblade Metal Fusion should be available
in Canadian stores by the end of April hopefully, so watch out for the new
products if you live in Canada!
In Metal Fight Beyblade ~Explosion~,
Ryuuga will become good after his match against Ginga, and teams will be
formed for a new tournament. Ginga will get Galaxy Pegasis in the second
episode. New characters will appear, such as these two who will
respectively own Thermal Lacerta and Rock Giraffe:
Of course, there will also
be a new opening and ending. The second opening is still sung by YU+KI and
is called "Galaxy Heart". The ending will be called "Oozora
wo koete yuke", and is a song by Oodoriba Soul.
The screenshots have been
updated as much as possible. An album for Metal Fight Beyblade ~Explosion~
is already set up.
Strangely, the English dub
opening for Beyblade Metal Fusion has already been leaked by a Spanish
anime website. Enjoy!

New
releases, and second season!
DATE:
03/15/10
Finally an update!
The second season of Metal Fight Beyblade is
about to be introduced: Metal Fight Beyblade ~Explosion~, on April 4th 2010 on
TV Tokyo. The new character who owns Ray Unicorno, Masamune Kadoya, will of
course appear in this season.
Official pictures of the next releases have
been published:
The new system with the Bey Point Card mostly
works with the new Bey Ta 2 Go machine: for each level you reach, a sticker is
applied on your card. However, points are also given at important WBBA events
for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd-place winners, but also to everybody who participated.
Otherwise, the screenshots
and episode summaries for Metal Fight Beyblade are all up-to-date, even those I
had previously missed. Those for episode 49 should be done this week.

Metal Fusion Pictures and Videos! #2
DATE:
03/01/10
Several new photos of the Beyblade Metal Fusion
toyline have surfaced, as well as videos:
So it seems the normal Beyblades all come with
Right Launchers that were modified for better grip, and the Electronic Tops get
some launchers from the plastic generations, with the old style of prongs. Also,
Hasbro decided to put a lot of Japanese everywhere, but they did not bother
writing "Go Shoot" in Japanese instead of "retto itto rippu"...
They also chose to write the original BB codes for each Beyblade, which is very
strange because they will start at BB-28... Thankfully though, they will keep
the Japanese naming system, such as "DF145FS" for Dark Wolf.
Beyblade
Metal Fusion Pictures and Videos! + Manga Scans
DATE:
02/14/10
EDIT: The scans are here! There
is also a sticker sheet of odd versions of the current Faces, such as Pegasis,
Bull, etc.
New pictures of the Beyblade Metal Fusion
products have been found by Cailany, webmaster of Kai's BeySharks:
In order: a portable stadium kit; a blue Beystadium; the yellow Pegasus
Thunder Whip stadium; the Super Vortex Battle Set; Electronic Storm Pegasus/String
Launcher/Launcher Grip(with Grip Rubber); the two-Beyblades set(Rock Leone and
Flame Bull); all the products, including what seems to be the Reactor Chamber,
in blue on the top row; all the Beyblades, and Rock Aries and Storm Pegasus at
the top.
Two videos have also been uploaded on YouTube
that show these products. The new English opening theme for Beyblade Metal
Fusion can be heard as well in the first video; as expected, the same music is
heard as in the Japanese song.
It seems Pegasis has been changed into Pegasus,
and Cancer into Gasher. The yellow stadium is called Pegasus Thunder
Whip. In general, the stadiums look a lot better than what we thought Hasbro
could make, although they are still not as good as TAKARA-TOMY's Beystadiums.
Make sure to check the previous update as well;
very interesting!
Ray Unicorno D125CS http://ameblo.jp/1974-mshr/image-10457388789-10411812337.html By the way, the new rival character, Masamune, is its owner, and he is holding the new 3 Segment Launcher Grip. The place where the Beypoint Card will be put can easily be seen.
These Beyblades will be added to the index once
official pictures have been published. It is useless to mention that of course
nobody can take and use the photos on this blog since they are personal scans
from a Japanese fan...
Gravity Perseus' gimmick, in the end, is
probably only going to be a multi-directional Beylauncher with a Clear Wheel not
obstructed in any way (all the current Clear Wheels have small 'walls' to
prevent the insertion of some launcher prongs).
Miingno should send me the manga scans from the
previous CoroCoro issue soon. Keep coming!
The Beyblade
Spirit Gallery is regularly being updated with the latest Metal Fight
Beyblade screenshots. I work as quickly as I can. Hopefully the episode
summaries will be complete soon as well.
Also, this is the first official picture of
Hasbro's new product Beyblade Metal Fusion. Unfortunately, the stadium showed
might not be sold at all since they used it years ago for demonstration and
tournaments as well. At least, the Right Launchers' colours look vibrant, better
than TAKARA-TOMY's:

June 26th 2010 - BB-80 Starter Gravity Perseus AD145WD (1345 yen) The new rival Beyblade. Apparently the Clear Wheel can be flipped to allow the Beyblade to be launched in both right and left-spin. This Starter comes with a launcher for each direction.
BB-81 Launcher Rubber (315 yen) A rubber part to attach to the handle of the Beylauncher.
Otherwise, all the current screenshots have been uploaded, and the Metal
Fight Beyblade is up-to-date.
The following are the official pictures for the latest releases, those of
January:
I have not read any other similar article anywhere else, but some points
seem quite real.
Here is the information basically :
There will be a website called BeybladeBattles.com (which currently
redirects to Hasbro's page, so it is probably real) where users will be
able to customize their Beyblades online and fight people around the world
online.
That page says it will launch in Canada first in spring 2010, and the
United States will get it in fall 2010 ... To seriously be confirmed,
because Corus Entertainment's initial press release mentioned all of North
America.
They only mention the five-layer system, which would be the Hybrid
Wheel System. The parts are, I believe : - (no official Face name at the moment)
- Fusion Wheel
- Spin Track
- Performance Tip
There is still a Tool to assemble the parts.
Return of the "let it rip" expression.
Some of the same Japanese launchers : String Launcher, Ripcord Launcher, Wind-up
Launcher and Launcher Grip.
Some electronic Beyblades.
Beyblade case.
Some of the stadiums sound as if they could be slightly similar to the
Japanese ones, but they mention a Super Vortex Beystadium ...
This is the list of items they will start selling first, I think.
Unfortunately there does not seem to be a single Beyblade package yet from
what I understand ...
