I've never been into Beyblades and the series has been out for quite a while now and I've never shown any interest in it at all... until now for some reason. I think I found it appealing because recently the newer beyblades actually are constructed partially of real metal.. while most toys on the market are constructed out of cheap plastic. I was at Target and I wound up buying a Metal Fusion Beyblade by the name of Thermal Pisces, an endurance type Beyblade.
(Metal Fusion Beyblade: Thermal Pisces)Once I actually used the Beyblade I was quite impressed at how long it spun, It spun for over a minute. I admit I am a bit too old to be playing with toys like this, but for toys available in current retail stores I think Beyblades are probably the coolest thing you can buy for less than $10. I wound up buying a 2nd Beyblade, a balance type, at Wal-mart by the name of Dark Wolf.

(Metal Fusion Beyblade: Dark Wolf)When I tried out Dark Wolf it seemed to spin in a more unpredictable pattern. What also adds to the cool factor of Beyblades is that they are based on Beigoma, which are traditional Japanese spinning tops used to battle one another. Not having the plastic arena to spin Beyblades in, I've been spinning mine on the kitchen floor. XD
For anyone who's looking for a different kind of collectors hobby other than trading cards, I recommend Beyblades. They are both interesting to collect and fun to play with.
