Beyblade is a brand name for a line of spinning top toys originally developed and manufactured by Takara Tomy, first released in 2000. The main premise of the series that the Beyblade (sometimes shortened to Bey or Blade) is customizable, with interchangeable parts. Both the toys and their name were inspired by Beigoma, a traditional spinning top. The concept is similar to Battling Tops, a board game developed by Ideal Toy Company in 1968. The introduction of the toy corresponded with the broadcast of the Beyblade anime television series of the same name.
