And if iBeyblader is right and Wave 2 has been released, we'll soon have access to "Twisted" as well.
General Hasbro BEYBLADE:Metal Fury/Shogun Steel/Beyblades Legends -FALL 2014 [HOBBY]
I'm also quite interested in what they will do with RSF and Ray Gil. Hopefully RSF will be somewhat aggressive at first purchase. Also with Tornado, hopefully they'll change it. But then again, they release Gimmicks through T.V. and Herculeo guy isn't special. They did quite a good job with Hyper...
Hyper, really? If they'd mirror-ed it, it'd improve, but I thought it was mediocre?
RSF should be similar to the RBV7 one, given people say hasbro use soft rubber. Given defensively RS or CS us usually a better option, a more aggressive RSF is something nice, so yeah.
I doubt they'll change tornado. Expect mediocrity from it
NightWolf: yeah, I know, but still

I really have no idea where this softer rubber idea came up, I doubt there is any proof of this, just more false reasons for Hasbro-haters to feed on.
Well IIRC, I know that Thunder is at least 30 grams, shame I don't have a weigher. I'm never one of the first to get a bey, so I was unprepared, haha. I can see it as a mediocre wheel if you don't have Earth or Basalt, but regardless there's really no use for it. I've tested it in attack, defense, and stamina combos. Attack was horrible (I expected that), in defense it is OK but still nothinG compared to Earth And Basalt, it's just to light, not thick enough, and actually has quite a bit of recoil (compared to Earth with an MF Bull ED145WD on both wheels) on stamina, it actually does quite well, I can see it possibly as a destabalizer, but those are not useful in the current metagame really. Overall Thunder is just another Metal wheel, I give it tier 3 defense. I'll go look around to see if I can find any photos on Ray from Unicorno, to see if it's a new mold, or a different one. I'd really love to know, and be the first to know about something like that
@th!nk Yeah, Hyper sucks. I haven't tested it with R2F/CS yet, but I doubt even that would help it...
@BBS What are you finding useful for Hyper? Also, what exactly would you like to tested with? (check my Youtube to see all my beys/parts/stadium) I tested it against MF LLD CH120/145WD, it had like a 10% win rate, against MF Earth Bull GB145WD it had about the same, and it was MF Thunder Bull/Aquario ED145WD.
I have tested with Galaxy and it seems to do ok against things like Ray, and Gravity, (mold 2 LOL) but it still really doesn't have a use lol. I haven't really tested anything with it quite yet, but seeing as it will most likely be mediocre, I just don't have any will to want to do it xD

@Raigeko: that's a shame, MF Thunder Bull GB145RS did comparable to earth (AFAIK) against Hell 85RF, and infinity was comparable to earth. But eh.

More attack power. Faster wear, but yeah, generally I like the idea. Hell, a soft R145 wouldn't suck defensively
I meant for Hasbro's standards. It actually did good in BB-10. Will try tests soon. I'm pretty sure someone will "discover" a use with Thunder and Hasbro's BD145.
I simply CANNOT wait to get my hands on RS, BD145, 230 (another HOPEFULLY better) Gravity, and Twisted (Basalt rofl) I can see myself killing all of you with my beys now... MUAHAHAHA
Alright, I think I'll do what BBS asked me to do on Saturday, and call Hasbro and ask about GD's launcher. Hopefully I'll get an answer this time...
EDIT: You'll have to wait a while for BD145 RaiGeko, our geniuses at the Big H still need more time to rename Hell Kerbecs

NightWolf Good luck! Even though we most likely are going to get a ripcord launcher int he PACKAGE, that doesn't mean they won't release it separately!
Also I'm goin to go ahead and give a shot with MF-H on Galaxy, what other parts should I give it NightWolf? Just a 100R2F?

First try it with 100, then go lower, and then go higher. Perhaps the track is the key to "unlocking' something, but maybe not. Ah, the joy of testing mediocre wheels.
Visit the Hasbro Testing thread for that
Hah, Hasbro on BD145. But surely they must be planning something on both Beyblades, something special. For as of now they would of announced them.
Good luck with testing, I've done a lot and it's bad.

LOL I can't go any lower than 100 xD
@BBS Lol figures, I wish I had a Max Stampede w/o craters in it, that would help my testing a lot :L I just have an L-Drago stadium, Portable, Super Vortex, and a carpy blue fake stadium. (you know which one I'm talking about )

NEWSFLASH: I just called Hasbro Customer Service. It turns out that the launcher they are releasing Gravity Destroyer with is not just a regular Light Launcher. The bar that prevents the wrong insertion of the ripcord is removed, meaning you can put it in either side of the launcher for left or right spin. Although not the most ergonomic choice, its better than just a regular Right Launcher.
-.-
That's just...
Wow. That sucks.
I'm going to buy 2 Gravity Destroyers
2 beys for awesomeness
And I shall burn one of these launchers for I predict that they suck -.-
PROVE ME WRONG SCIENCE!
ALSO
That won't work if I'm picturing it correctly, because the prongs on the launcher have to be in the direction the bey is spinning. Oh my god Hasbro, you have outderp'd yourself again. Kudos, I didn't believe was possible for ANYONE to derp that much, lol.

That sucks, but is still good news for Hasbro Bladers!!!!!
Awesome work, Nightwolf, you've done amazingly
Hah, they did make an LR Light Launcher. Stupid, but cool nonetheless.
Still, it'd be using normal prongs, which is really odd... They now have to prevent bladers using it with other beys, unless they've altered the prongs...
I try my best th!nk. Also, Raigeko it doesn't matter which way the prongs go because Gravity Perseus can use either prongs. Wait a second, does this mean we can get regular right spin blades to now go LEFT SPIN with this launcher??? And does that mean it would be completely LEGAL???
I doubt it'll be legal. But from pics, the prongs are normal, so it's kinda weird. Pretty stupid on hasbro's part, but oh well.
I love how, instead of just using TT's launcher design, which is brilliant, they waste money designing custom, lame launchers. Really rather silly.

Well from how I'm picturing this launcher, since the prongs are only going one way, it won't really work (I'm sure I'm wrong about that though) I'll make this simple and clear lol, I see it working with right spin ok, but with left spin, It'll be like making an LLD spin with a right spin launcher. Anyone following me?
I doubt Hasbro is that idiotic. I'm sure they have some sort of specialized mechanism...
That's weird. So you put the ripcord the other way and it becomes a left spin launcher? Doesn't that mean you have to launcher with your left hand then?
Good point Raigeko13, if you take the prongs of a left-spin launcher and stick it on a right spin then try launching it two things happen; the bey falls off right from the start of launcher of it stays on the prongs and don't come off. The prongs are designed with that slope on purpose.

At the very least, they could have used TT's Light Launcher LR design...
I just wish Hasbro would listen to their predecessors, TT, before doing anything. Honestly, they're like a bunch of kids not listening to their parents, I swear.
It pretty much would be like using a left-spin only bey with a Light Launcher. But I'd like to see how they made the launcher, and if it's like how you guys are saying it, and as Raigeko said earlier, Hasbro, you may have just outderp'd yourself again.
