TT Hongli

This Chinese manufacturer built its business on counterfeiting popular Japanese toy lines, Takara's Beyblade catalogue among them, packaging its knockoffs to closely mimic the originals aside from its own branding and swapped-in Chinese or English text. Tournaments treat its output as illegal, and community teardown reports have flagged lead content in some of its parts alongside thinner plastic and weaker metal components than the products it copies.
