Very strange.
I have an extremely worn one, nothing wrong here.
Maybe Boxhead is battling against MFB??

I am, should I stop battling with MFB?

Those Cracks look awful. I remember a guy on YT broke it because he battled against Diablo Nemesis.
It's pretty much gonna break now. I'd glue the inside of the crack.
Only against HMS ok?

Not even against HMS, it will break for sure after some more battling. And I think it´s illegal to play with a glued bey competitively, so it´s pretty much useless for now. The best you can do is stop playing with it and keep it for display.

As for your question, HMS metal is significaltly older than MFB and so much more prone to breakage due to atmospheric conditions. If you want beyblades to play with all day, MFB might be the better choice, because the materials are more solid. Unfortunately HMS is better suited for collection purposes, although it´s a lot of fun to play with them...

I think a Flash attack custom will surely make mince metal meat out of it, heh imagine if it was against the 1kg Beyblade mod, damn.

Anyways Dragoon MS is a lot of fun but it's rarity also makes it more better for collection purposes and as long as he doesn't use that Dragoon MS in tournaments then gluing it is a good idea. Also MFB would have also lasted longer IMO even if it was older than HMS as their shapes are mostly more tamed and they are thicker, asides a few 4D Beyblades and perhaps Lightning and Earth Mold 1.
Ugh...collection.

The entire point of Dragoon MS(UV) being so rare and sought after compared to junk like Gaia Dragoon MS is the fact that it's so competitively useful.

It was always considered a competetive staple, and thus highly desirable.
This translated into low supply with high demand.

It's ironic that the reason it was so highly sought after - battle - is now restricting it to purely collection purposes.
But everything other then the core is basically worthless anyways (17g DCMS' Circle Wide is better).
So...core is fine.
Come again?

MSUV is complete carp besides the core.
Yes, and that's why I said the best he can do (if he doesn't want to throw it away) is keeping it for display and enjoy its looks or something. Grin
The collection purposes I mentioned are for HMS in general, at least compared to MFB.
Let's be honest, this AR doesn't have any value anymore, neither competitively nor for collection purposes. Keep it as decoration, if you like, or throw it away.

I don't see why that's relevant to what I wrote.

There would be no reason to have it useless and collection purposes when the core was unaffected by his problem.
Does anyone how much a Red/Green Wolborg MS recolor will go for?
He's probably refering to the recoloured sticker version being sold by Darkfox (he should have made this clear however). Tbh I really have no idea. They're very rare (I've only ever seen him owning one only) so if you really want it then buy it because it's highly likely you won't see another one.

Yes I mean that one. Thanks.
Could anyone tell me whether it's normal for the tips of Jiraiya and Wolborg MS to be able to be pulled out a little?

Both Wolborgs I have the RC pulls out a little and on my Jiraiya MS.
Yes. Also that Jiraiya one looks kinda dodgy and off centre.
Thanks guys

Yeah, the Jiraiya is quite off centre. I'd need to risk deforming it to centre it, a real shame.
Can anybody tell me that :

Q: If I will buy a HMS bey will I get a launcher also ?
