Here are some of the homemade b daman that I had created back in 2006 when Battle B daman was aired here in the Philippines.
Reason for creating homemade b daman:
- Since my parents won't buy me one in the first place or even allow me to buy one due to obvious reasons.
- Since I could not find any original b daman toys back then because I could not just go to any toy store and find one or at least I do not know where they are selling them back then.
- If I have a B daman toy, I usually buy them without my parents knowing about it. Even up to now I guess lol.
- The only thing I could afford was fake B daman lol. But before that I wanted to have 1 and so I made 1 before those fakes ones started to sell out in the streets. (Only Blade Saber that I made before buying the fake ones)
- I got so inspired at B daman since it shoots marbles ,which is my favorite and my childhood toy up to now, and that is something that I wanna try doing since even before B daman, I tried making shooting related toys back then by just using cardboards and glues and scotch tapes...
And so, after all that introduction, here are the images. Due take note that I used an old phone back then so quality image is not that good at all.
Blade Saber
Magnum Blaster
Magnum Blaster DHB
Magnum Blaster Long Accuracy Cannon
Magnum Blaster Long Extension Magazine
Magnum Blaster Accuracy Cannon & Magazine Extension
Here are some info:
- I used cardboard(Illustration Board) for most of it
- I applied paper mache on it to harden the surface at least by using tissue paper, glue mixed with water
- I could not do the core like the ones in battle b daman at that time so the mechanism of it is to use your hands to errm push the marbles out from the core, something like Burst=Bison's core whereas it has no spring in it but you can do manual shooting in it using brute force. Yea, it is similar to that.
- And yes, the extensions thing: got inspired from Draco Gale's magazine and barrel switching system.
I have more homemade ones but have no screenshot of them, some of them already got missing parts and such(Too bad for Magnum Saber, its a lol homemade B daman), But I still have Magnum Rifle Which up to now I still haven't screenshot it up to this point but maybe in the future I guess?
P.S. If you are about to ask with the names of my homemade b daman, I'm not good at naming things :/

Failure leads to Innovation as perfection leads to no innovation. That's how I manage to keep my sane under control while building homemade b-damans
