Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

The definition of the words we used, carry a meaning of their own...

I've never seen this before. Originally from Japan (of course). The word "beyblade" is actually an entry in my Japanese dictionary.

This must be some large-scale, full-metal with fire mock-up (although there is a small metal series version of the game). Beyblades

I assume "Biblically accurate" is a reference to the "whirring wheels" in the Book of Ezekiel.

I have to assume they were pumping in a flammable gas along with the ultra high speed, high mass spinning gear.

My kid got one of those beyblade games for Christmas when we first moved to Texas. Metal swirling things bashing into each other.

Can’t play alone so I got drafted, somehow I always got the second best one. Good memories for sure.

Reminds me of the Battling Tops game back in the 70's
