Beyblade Toys

Why, oh, why, don't they make character figures? Beyblade is a game and thus Takara Inc. and Hasbro will make the toys for the game. That's like making role play toys (like wands, transformation instruments etc), so why not make figures? I'd love to have a little Ming Ming and my other favourite characters on my shelf. Oh, the fun I could have playing with them. The only figures that have existed is the ones Burger King had, and they were all-one-colour, semi-transparent plastic things. Plus they only had Takao, Kai, Rei and Mao. I didn't like that either. Mao is there for the girls but still - where's Max?!
All I want is a vinal figure... or a posable figure... or a doll... or a plush of Ming Ming. I can tell you all want one of your favourite character. If they go as far as making life-size Kais I'll know this wish is wrong but if they can do it for other series then they can do it for Beyblade.
