Yes, it does mean Pegasus Thunder Whip, the notoriously bad, completely flat-centered, Hasbro Stadium.
Beyblade Zero-G Series. (Watch video in first post!)
What's bad about a flat stadia? Shouldn't that be good for attack types? Or stamina types?
Flat stadiums allow beys to meander around the bottom without contact (that's bad for attack types and good for traditional stamina types), whereas inclined stadiums use gravity to bring the beys together to make contact (better for attack, worse for stamina).
The incline (along with the tornado ridge) also helps keep fast-moving attack types stay in the stadium.

Zero-G is pretty cool since the stadium wiggles a lot and it feels like it's "deifying" gravity during spinning.I'm getting the Start Dash Set
i just bought it and its should be coming in about 2 weeks, i wonder if the actual beys may have any good parts

What about a stadium with a flat outside and a sloped inside. Staminas just chill on the flat part while attack runs laps in the middle.

Because, with a Stamina Beyblade, the first thing you want to do is make sure your Beyblade is positioned as close to an exit as possible.
If you're gunning to lose, that is.
Boring and disappointing news, but exactly the same materials from previous Metal Fight Beyblade products are used in the Zero-G Beyblades ... So, there is absolutely no reason for "Chrome Wheel" or anything.

WHAT?? So we can't call them what we used to?? We have to use boring old Stone Face, Track, etc. ? How sad is that.
The design of Chromium and Crystal wheels are completely different, exception being the track compatibility.
So the names are justified.

What ? I do not think you understand ... Obviously, the official name for the Zero-G metal ring is "Chrome Wheel", but it contains the same zync alloy as the Metal Wheels from before, so they are not really different ... The same thing can be said about all the plastic parts.

I guess I didn't understand. I really got confused with this.
Not sure why anyone would expect they would use a different material.
Chrome Wheel. If it is the same as a Metal Wheel, then it was just fancy to change the name.
The wheels are super shiny, so it appears like there is some other metal on top...

Takara-Tomy does have a marketing department, you know. It's possible they have been coated to appear shinier ... I know Battle Strikers just launched a Chrome series that is very nice looking.
The Metal stays shiner for longer .. or something. I've used it for 2 days, and it's still shiny.
Normally, it would have been 1 day for 4D, and pft, I have to clean it the next..

It would be interesting to see if they are coated in anything to keep it looking whimsy for longer but I very much doubt it, I can see the metal going dark very quickly just like all the other beys
Oh, apparently there is a Beyblade called "Dark Knight Dragoon" ... That is interesting.
(Perhaps there is a hyphen between "Dark" and "Knight", since the Crystal Wheel part would obviously be [Dark Knight]. Also, do not just jump and believe me on "Dragoon" : it might have another spelling, but it is pronounced exactly like Dragoon ...)

Oh god don't even pull my leg here. This is going to get loud.
Heh, 4D-style naming.
Heh, 4D-style naming.
I really doubt that it is going to be the Dragoon that we all know and love anyways, so really all we can do is hope it is a great/cool bey! Thank you for the Information Kai-V!
Might be the first Zero.G left spin, Sounds like an antagonist bey.
Very interesting.
Very interesting.
Woah. Woah.
Woah.
Woah. That's definitely news. That is interesting. Thanks for that, that gets me thinkin. Super excited to see the turn out.

Sounds like Batman meets the plastics but in Zero-G, LMAO!!
I'm not trying to "jump the gun" or anything, but I think the plastic fans may finally get their wish of a re-release in MFB.
On the other hand, if this is a left spinning Bey, it makes me wonder what the Launcher would be like.
