Tomy (founded in 1924 as Tomiyama, changing the name to Tomy in 1963) and long-time rival, Takara (founded in 1955), merged on March 1, 2006. Before the merger, Beyblades (particularly those of the Bakuten Shoot Beyblade series) were manufactured by Takara.

Youngtoys (and previously Sonokong) licenses the toyline for distribution and manufacturing in South Korea, while Hasbro licenses the toyline for distribution and manufacturing internationally, particularly in western countries.
