Or there's the gigantic takara logo in the bottom right hand corner, and also the D-Rights logo above it, if you're not into squinting at small print.

Wondering, why is it that Gaia Dragoon MS, Draciel MS, and Driger MSare so cheap and availible?

From what I understand, they are not particularly good, so nobody really wanted them back then, and that is therefore most of what is left years later, now.

It would have to be, in part, overproduction as well, as other fairly useless blades are nowhere near that widely available (and Takara's Draciel MS has the heavier Circle Wide). I mean, they're not great blades but none of them are totally useless, just outclassed for the most part.

I should not be posting this here if I wanted to win. But oh well.

Great price, great beyblade IMO. But then I saw this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Beyblade-TAKARA-..._976wt_732
The thing is, I already have a Dragoon MS. But it's really battle-worn and I'm very biased towards RSMS since I love how it looks, regardless of competitive use. But...I can really only buy one. I figure I'm only ever going to see a DGMS that low-priced once in a blue-moon, but since I already have one it might be a better buy to get the RSMS. Which should I get?

The Dragoon MS will shoot up to at least the Takara NIB price before the auction is over. Also, could you please not use DGMS as an abbreviation? Both Dragoon and Driger have a G and the two both get called DG__ an awful lot.

---

th!nkBlargh|H-Code Product List

I know about that, so for Driger I usually use DI_ because it's the only one that doesn't have an a after the first two letters (DrAciel, DrAgoon, DrAnzer, DrIger). But I'll keep that in mind.

It's actually already a few days into the auction, but someone who's willing to pay a truckload of money might come along and bid $100 or something. In which case, I'll back off and just get RSMS. Thanks.

$15? With free shipping, and being Takara, I'd say yes. Advanced Avenger/Averazer/Whatever-it's-actually-called has some nice pieces. And it's rare to see any HMS beyblade below $20 that isn't a Driger, Draciel, or Gaia Dragoon MS.

wolborg MS is great out of the box, but you could change it's AR to Adv. Averazer's to make a good spin stealing/zombie combination due to the bearing core and the nearly round AR

^This. Good advice yo.

Real but usually they come with a broken ripcord and fake replacement (if anything), which damages easily resulting in mislaunches (oil the launcher/ripcord and that'll help).
You could get it cheaper on Ebay or from Dimsum2u here on the forums.

Is this combo at all competitively viable?

AR: Jiraiya Blade
WD: CWD Defense Ring

Kinda but you'd want a better defensive AR, not sure what to suggest as I'm still inverstigating it myself.
Also, for me there's a slight risk of being outspun by samurai upper/circle wide/gfc(um) but that could well be due to my poor CWD plastic part (bust I have atm is jiraiyas, which isn't horrible but yeah).

A lot considering it is one of the best HMS

Someone who wants to sell it to me is trying to give it to me for $60, but I'm hesitant. $50 is exactly how much a Takara Wolborg MS is worth?

No I said it's worth at kinda minimum $50. You're lucky to find a NIB these days tbh.
