Pegasus Leone Rev Up Launcher VS Set

Not in the official release series of Beyblade Stadium Sets


Pegasus Leone Rev Up Launcher Versus Set!
Got this at the recent Beyblade World Championship Qualifiers Event at United Square Novena. Yes i fnally won something thru playing beyblade. This time round it wasn't pitting my lousy skill at the Open Catagory, but thru a Gladiator Challenge, where i was to versus 3 of the best ambassadors of STT SG.
Nonetheless, i was lucky, nothing to do with skills or customizations. lol. On with the review.


Contents Include:
Standard Attack BeyStadium (Light Blue with Pegasus Logo)
2 x Rev Up Launcher (Black and White)


Clear FaceBolts (both blank)
Pegasus 3 Clear Wheel
Big Bang 4D three tier Metal Wheel System (Fire Red)
Final Drive 4d Fusion Track/Bottom
Leone 2 Clear Wheel   
Fang 4D two tier Metal Wheel System (Gun Metal Black)
130 Track
Wide Wave Defence Bottom
Stadium Guard
Stickers & Instructions
Tool


The highlight of this Stadium Set has to be the Rev Up Launchers.
Intially introduced by Hasbro USA, the Rev Up Launcher made its popularity online quickly due to its proven high Revolution Per Minute (RPM) levels, almost double to triple a normal Beylauncher speed.


Fits with the conventional Bey Launcher Grip handles (Left or Right handed)
Unlike the Beylauncher which depends mostly on torque of the ripcord, the Rev Up works more on the momentumn of the charging gear within its body, so strength is not needed when pulling the Ripcord.


After loading the Bey in the usual catch hooks, the Blader is required to 'Charge' the Bey, this is done so by pulling the ripcord 'LIGHTLY' 3/4 of the full string length, Releasing it back and Repeat again. In the advice tutorial, the Blader is reccomended to pul the 'Charge' upon the "3,2,1, Go" count 4 times.


To Launch, SHARPLY press down the buttom beside the Spin Gauge, the charged Bey should drop from the launcher. Sounds easy? this launcher takes a few hours to get used to due to its low need for speed and torque when pulling the ripcord. Conventional users will find themselves over pulling, or pulling the ripcord too fast causing the gears in the Rev Up Launcher to 'Crack' badly normally resulting in a pre-charged bad launch or late launch. So a little warning for those who wants to use this for competitions, PRACTICE until you can do a 100% perfect launch according to the (charge, charge, charge, Charge - Launch) techique in line with the (3,2,1 Go - Shoot)


Overall, the recolored BigBang Pegasus and Fang Leone are great additions to any collectors stash. The Rev Up Launchers are cool but not reccomended for Bladers who are 'Power Launchers', will be better for Newer and Younger Bladers as they are less agressive and strong. Either than that, it takes some practice to ba able to use this for any tournaments. The Set is a good to have but not a must to get.

WBBA Event Special: Fang Leone W105R²F Burning Claw Ver.

New addition to the Limited Exclusive Bey Collection~


WBBA Event Special Exclusive: Fang Leone W105R²F Burning Claw Ver.


Contents Include:
Leone FaceBolt
Leone Clear Wheel
Fang 4D 2Tier Metal Wheel
Wing 105 Track
Right Rubber Flat Bottom
Stickers & Instructions
Tool


This Recolored Burnng Claw version of the Fang Leone is released in Japan as a Limited Shop Event Premium, simliar to the Bakushin Susanow Eclipse Ver. Recolored parts include a clear Red CW and a Metallic Red Fang 4D MW. In addition, the Fang Leone original 130 Track and W²D is replaced with W105 Track and R²F Bottom. The modification changes the Fang Leone into an aggressive Attack Type Bey configuration.


My personal favorite in this edition would be its Gold imprinted Leone FaceBolt. Since the original Fang Leone does not come with a printed FaceBolt, it sure adds to the collection well~


Overall, the WBBA Event Special Exclusive Fang Leone W105R²F Burning Claw Ver. is not a must have but its definately a very nicely recolored rendition of the original. Do not forsee using it in any battles thou. lol

BB-106 Fang Leone 130W2D

Up next is the 2nd 4D beyblade...


BB-106 Fang Leone 130W2D~!


Contents Include:
FaceBolt
Leone 2 Clear Wheel
Fang 4D two part Metal Wheel
130 Track
Wave Wide Defence Bottom
Light Launcher 2 + Ripcord (Black)
Instructions & Stickers
Tool



The Fang 4D MW, unlike the Big Bang MW has only two sections instead of three.
The top section of the MW can be flip over to change between two modes:


Defence Mode (normal defence levels)


Counter Mode (max defence mode with critical counter levels)
The 'Counter' Mode is not anyones cup of tea when it comes to defence. With Critical levels of Counter abilities, the MW can easily Stadium Out both your opponent and yourself. With that, the reason for its New bottom.

The Wave Wide Defence Bottom.

A smart upgrade to the existing Wide Defence bottom, Wave Wide Defence has a 2 tier 'Ripple' or 'Wave' surface with a pointed tip for maximum Stamina. The secondary ripple increases grip when opposed with the 'Counter' effect with Minimum contact surface to reduce spin velocity.


Fang Leone will definately be top in counter levels, a defence bladers best addition~
(hope that there is a clear facebolt for Fang soon ya)

BB-106 Fang Leone 130W2D Update

Got some update to the upcoming 4D Bey BB-106 Fang Leone 130W2D~

Apparently the Divided Metal Wheels of the Fang Leone can be fliped over to interchange between two modes:



Defence Mode

Counter/ Attack Mode


Also got an image of the W2D which states that its a singular part that combines "stamina" with "defence". Looks like it is more of a "Wide Defence Sharp" than a W2D.


other peeps include BB-109 Random Booster Vol 7 which once again feature a "censored" new MW - Beat Rinkus? XXXX

Well looks like its going to be a hard time getting this again~
