Products

The Beyblade packaging will be brand-new with tattooed face bolts, it is easiest to tell on Galaxy Pegasus W105R2F, booster Counter Leone 145D, and Flame Byxis 230WD

XTS Beyblade (Xtreme Top System)

The XTS Beyblades are Beyblades that are heavier and more agressive than normal Beys (and are baned from most tounaments) , they also have tracks that look similiar to the 230 Track that is included in Flame Byxis 230WD. So far Hasbro has released pictures of these called "Tornado Eagle" and "Tornado L-Drago". They will use the same launchers.

Rip Gauge Launcher

A Beyblade Launcher with a speed measuring device that will determine how powerful the launch of the Beyblade was.

IR Remote Control Beyblade

"IR" stands for "Infrared" hence, the remote control feature. This is a handheld Beyblade Launcher with sound effects in the controller. For about 15 seconds, you can control the speed and direction of your Beyblade while it's spinning in the Beystadium. It will cost $30 US Dollars and will be this Fall.

Triple Battle Set

A Beyblade Set with three interchangable cores, a Beystadium and, 2 Beyblades. Beyblade's are confirmed to be Galaxy Pegasus W105R2F and Meteo LDrago LW105LF, the colors are different just like the original Vortex Stadium Set. Cores included are the "zip" core which causes tops to move in a straight line, the"chaos" core which causes chaotic and wild movement and the "deflector" core which affects right spin tops and left spin tops differently.

Tornado Beystadium

A Beystadium with a spinning spinner. It will look similar to the Japanese Tornado Beystadium as the auto-parts will be different.

Duotron Launcher

This is a Beyblade Launcher able to launch 2 Beyblades at the same time. It is gold. But this launcher lacks power, as it skips rotations due to the 5 gears inside.

Electro Battlers

The line of bigger Beyblades with lights and sounds will return. They use normal MFB launchers.

Boosters

Some beyblades will come without launchers. It is unknown if non-legend beyblades will be boosters, but some legend beys are released in some countries as Beyblade: Metal Masters boosters.

Beyblaster and Custom Grip

The Beyblaster represents a gun, you "pump" it then press the trigger to make it launch weakly. The Custom Grip is a grip that only holds Light Launchers and comes with an Angle Compass, which is the first time Angle Compasses have been released by Hasbro, however it only fits on a normal grip upside-down, unless it is a Japanese grip. Since the grip only holds Light Launchers, there is no reason to buy either of these accessories.

Stealth Battlers

The Stealth Battlers are designed just like regular Beyblades but have each have their very own unique feature that automatically deploys during the battle to allow for a more competitive type of play. Just like the Tornado Battlers and Electro Battlers, they each come with a Ripcord Launcher.

Trivia

  • The name "Metal Masters" was used in some of Hasbro's Beyblades during the original series of Beyblade. They had a unique sticker on the packaging that read, Metal Masters.
  • The Battle between Gingka and Damian is similar to that of the first Beyblade series ever created. The fact that Tyson was trapped in the ice trap, is the same as Gingka is trapped in Hell. No information tells whether this was intentional or was it just a coincidence.
  • The new Beys have motif Face Bolts replacing stickers. Booster packs are also now available and are the the same as the normal packs but without the ripcord or Light Launcher 1.
  • In some of the booster packs, the beyblades are already constructed for you.
  • Most of the Beyblades are based on Greek Mythology (e.g. Hades Kerbecs BD145DS, Ceberus, the hound from Hell that had three heads.)
  • Hasbro's first three Metal Masters Beyblades were: Galaxy Pegasus, Thermal Lacerta, and Ray Striker. Intrestingly, all the faces are colored and transparent. Lacerta's face backround is Red, Striker's is blue, and Pegasus's is white. These colors are on the U.S. Flag, this may be a coincidence from Hasbro, or it may have been intended.
  • Gingka mirrors Tyson as Masamune mirrors Daichi. Not just by personality but by beys. The Pegasus and Unicorn are both horses, like how Tyson and Daichi both have a Dragoon.
  • Most of the characters use 3-Segment launchers.So far, Gingka and Tobio are using the the 3-Segment Launcher.Because before,the 2 bladers uses a grip launcher.
  • For the Hasbro release of Metal Masters they made a XTS Xtreme Top System.
  • The French, Serbian, Indonesian and Italian versions of Metal Masters have already ended.
