Beyblade:  Metal Fusion, the new incarnation of the powerful Beyblade franchise, will arrive in the U.S. in Fall 2010, according to an announcement from Nelvana and d-rights.  A new anime series of 51 episodes and a new toy line will lead the re-introduction.  The toys will be sold by Tony Company in the Middle East and Asia and Hasbro in the rest of the world.  Nelvana will represent the TV, home video, and merchandising rights in various countries. 

 

This fourth Beyblade anime series and new toy line were originally announced last year (see “Beyblade Returns”).  This will bring the series to over 200 episodes.
