Located at 415 118th Ave SE, Bellevue, WA, 98005-3518, and reachable at 651-331-9364, ASC Lake Union is dedicated to providing genuine, high-quality Beyblade products that capture the excitement of the popular anime and toy franchise. For those unfamiliar, Beyblade is more than just a spinning top. It’s a globally recognized battling system where players collect, customize, and compete with their Beyblades in intense arena battles. The franchise, stemming from a Japanese manga and anime series, has captivated audiences for over two decades, evolving through multiple generations of Beyblades, each with unique features and battling styles. Why Takara Tomy Beyblades? ASC Lake Union LLC specifically focuses on importing and distributing Takara Tomy Beyblades – the original and officially licensed Beyblades produced in Japan. This is a crucial distinction. While other brands may offer Beyblade-compatible tops, Takara Tomy Beyblades are known for their superior quality, innovative designs, and adherence to the official battling rules. “We noticed a real gap in the US market for genuinely authentic Takara Tomy Beyblades,” explains a spokesperson for ASC Lake Union LLC. “Fans were often receiving knock-offs or products that just didn’t deliver the same battling experience as the real thing. We wanted to change that. We’re committed to providing collectors and kids alike with the authentic products they deserve.” What's in the Takara Tomy Beyblade Lineup? The current lineup from ASC Lake Union LLC features a wide variety of Beyblades spanning multiple generations, including: Beyblade Burst: This is arguably the most popular generation currently. These Beyblades feature a modular system with interchangeable layers, disks, and frames, allowing for extensive customization and strategic battling. Fans can mix and match components to create unique combinations that suit their battling style. The Burst system is known for its dramatic "burst finishes" – where Beyblades explode upon impact, adding a thrilling element of surprise to each battle. Cho-Z Valkyrie & Beyond: A highlight of the Beyblade Burst series, these Beyblades are known for their vibrant colors, powerful features, and intricate designs. They often include special gimmicks, such as energy layers that absorb impacts or frames that enhance stability. DTX Series: The latest generation, featuring more complex designs, higher speeds, and enhanced battling mechanics. These Beyblades often incorporate advanced technologies, such as magnetic cores and unique blade shapes, to deliver a more dynamic and competitive battling experience. Rare & Limited Edition Beyblades: ASC Lake Union LLC also specializes in sourcing rare and limited edition Beyblades, coveted by collectors. These exclusive releases often feature unique color schemes, special packaging, or exclusive components not found in standard releases. Key Components Explained – What Makes a Beyblade Tick? For newcomers to the Beyblade world, understanding the different components is crucial. Each Beyblade is comprised of several key parts: Layer System: This is the visible top layer of the Beyblade, often featuring unique designs and character-inspired artwork. It’s the first part that makes contact during battle, influencing the Beyblade's overall attack power and stability. Disk System: Located beneath the layer, the disk determines the Beyblade’s weight distribution and movement patterns. Different disk types offer varying degrees of speed, defense, and control. Frame System: The frame connects the disk to the runner and influences the Beyblade’s overall stability and balance. Runner (or Base): This is the bottom-most part of the Beyblade and contains the gears that allow it to spin. Different runners offer varying degrees of grip and rotational speed. Beyond the Battling: The Community Aspect Beyblade isn't just about collecting and battling; it’s about being part of a vibrant community. Fans enjoy trading Beyblades, sharing strategies, and participating in tournaments. ASC Lake Union LLC recognizes this and is committed to supporting the Beyblade community in the US. “We’re seeing a real resurgence in Beyblade’s popularity, particularly among older fans who grew up with the original series,” says the spokesperson. “These fans are now sharing their passion with a new generation, and we’re thrilled to be a part of that.” Where to Find Authentic Takara Tomy Beyblades ASC Lake Union LLC currently distributes its products through its online store and select retailers.
