"Twisted Tempo 145WD". It really is Basalt Horogium 145WD ...

What can I say? Haters gonna hate. But yeah, they are going to release Poison Virgo as, well, Poison Virgo. Enough said :\ But I still don't understand what was so bad about Basalt. Twisted sounds much worse, and sounds stupider anyways. I don't get the Basalt name changes at all. And Destroyer? Perseus is not bad at all, he's a Greek hero...

"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new: an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook." But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist can come from anywhere."

Is it just me or is Ray Serpent equipped with M145 AND ES!? (from the looks of the tip)

Hold me. (Unless the picture quality is messing with me and it is just Q)

^FFFFFFFFFFFFF. Hasbro always has to have that poison dart in the raisin tart (Eragon reference). But it doesn't matter if it's ES or Q, that bey is eternally doomed anyways.

I think i know where they got tempo from. When its really silent and you could hear a clock, it makes this ticking noise, just like a tempo. Am i right? Ohwell.

Because we ALL LOVE M145! THANKS, HASBRO!

Heh, glad to see we are now sure that twisted tempo is basalt horogium.

Tempo is Italian for time (I think mainly in the musical sense). And it generally refers to Time anyway. You're thinking of a metronome.

And Destroyer? Perseus is not bad at all, he's a Greek hero...

Exactly, he's a GREEK hero. If you google it then you get about 200 pictures of greek statues of him. greek statues contain nudity.

I'm sure Hasbro wants to avoid the 10 million phone calls of concerned parents. "Hello, why did you name a beyblade after a NAKED man!?!"

---

Current Number of Beyblades I own: 79

I think "Prism" would be a more decent Hasbro-Standard renaming for Basalt.

EDIT:

Parents who carp and moan about very little references no one automatically notice have too much time on their hands to even be speaking on the phone.

I agree. But kids WILL google "perseus". Parents WILL get mad. It happens.

So you/they want to be racist towards everything Greek at this point, because one way or another you will see that sort of statue if you search on Google Images ...

It does not make them better to change the name, you see.

I think most kids know all about the statue of David. I don't think it's a big concern.

well considering the fact that lots of kids/parents may have seen clash of the titans, they will think of Perseus as a dressed hero, not a naked hero

sorry if i am being offtopic

Not being racist towards Greeks. The Greeks just loved to depict naked people. Ancient Greeks anyway, I have no idea about modern Greeks.

Wow, isn't there a border between racist attitudes and childish generalization? People who are not racist have accidentally made generalizations at some point when they were young. We were all (not saying we aren't) young before.

Anyway, I think orange and green are terrible color schemes for a recolored Thermal Lacerta.

So did many of their (roughly) contemporaries. The statue of David, for example, is Roman.

Nonetheless, I doubt parents would immediately google "Perseus" as an image search, I expect they'd end up on wikipedia or something.

Nonetheless, the mention of Perseus being in clash of the titans is interesting. I'm guessing it's a trademark issue again.

after posting that i had the same idea, it may be that

either way we can just call the name changed beyblades the original names that takara-tomy gave them in the fist place

However, we will have to deal with newbies coming in talking about their "Twisted Aquario" "Ray Tempo" and asking "WHAT IS A BASALT"

At least I wont have to spend 75$ on tornado herculeo and hopefully we can test alot now. And look for different molds. Speaking of molds, I wonder if Hasbro produced gravity wheel stronger and Ray too.... Im pretty excited about Metal Masters. =P. But what will SCREW be?.... Distorted Capricorne? Thats dope if you ask me.

This happens with a lot of pages. Anyway...

Tornado is already more readily available due to RBV7, but it's really not very good, FWIW...

Been getting the same problems lately man. Lol.
As for other wheels like Screw, I think it will stay that way IF they release it. Don't ask me why, but I think it will just stay the same.
Then again Byxis is still Byxis, and Basalt is Twisted.
Who the hell knows what blasphemy Hasbro has in store for us.
