Hi im new to this. i used to collect beyblades when i was about 12 onwards. thats back when they were the 1st series. i rumages through a bunch of old stuff and found my beyblades and got them back out and i started watching the old to new episodes online. i studied art and media in college and thought id put that to use and i have made my own beyblade almost from scratch. ive used old parts from beyblades from 1st series to 2nd series. i sanded parts down, made my own metal disk for the middle, painted most parts, drew my own character and bit beast and beyblade and i printed out my own bit beast to stick on as a bit chip. i think the new blades are cool. but i do miss the old ones and the old series. but atleast now they are mostly metal and make a cool noise haha. anyway heres a picture i photoshoped of my drawn and photoshoped blade, beast and guy and along side it is the REAL version i customised myself.

performance: Has beaten ALL of my beyblades including the 1st dragoon, wolborg 2, dranzer, driger, galmon and loads more. It has even beaten my mates beyblade which he has melted soldering iron into to make it last longer and stronger but my custom beyblade had no trouble even beating that.

Stats: it can spin up to 4-5 minutes without interfearence from any object or beyblade. has never been defeated expet on rare occasions were one of my other blades hits it 1st thing in battle.

Parts: well im unsure of the parts i have used i have forgotten what blades they origianaly belonged to. i know the attack ring and the extra attack ring belonged to the guy in the white tigers with the red beyblade. but i painted it when the stickers eventualy worn off. the defense metal ring was surprisingly off a cheap rip off beyblade i got for like £2.00 and i did some custom work to it and painted it black and its the secret weapon to my blade really. then the bottom belonged to what i think was a black version of dranzer in the 1st series set of beyblades but im not sure. the gear inside is a magnetic gear from a 2nd series beyblade.

Click here for the most classic thread on WBO of all time. Enjoy!

Strive for greatness.

i actually dont know haha..never thought about it. the blades heavyer than most old blades so it had alot of endurance, thats pretty much its secret weapon or move. its a cool blade cus sometimes it just spins in one spot and wont budge from other blades, other times it creates slight movement and slowly moves around the opponant. depends how you rip it really. but alot of times when another blade attacks it they find themselves either getting weak quick or shooting off cus shadows really heavy.

now if you mean what is its special attack in the anime i created then i still dont know but as i based the beast on a Husky dog, wolf and white tiger then id say itd be something like shadow claw or shadow bite.

wow.

Yeah but I won't even bother with that link.

Plus, if it was made FROM SCRATCH, why simply grind down and repaint already existing parts?

thanks for the post on my blade. and yeah i respect what your saying i guess it wasnt completely from scratch i used a bad choice of words there. but considering were im from old beyblades are close to impossible to get. so im very limited on what i can customise

i am however planning to make a new beyblade with existing parts and attching some series stuf to it. perhaps even razor blades. but it might even take a bit of soldering iron to fix them on perminantly. plastic parts are so much easyer to customise i can just melt them or use modeling glue which melts some plastics.

i still stand by my beyblade shadow though. it is really good and hasnt been beaten. i am really eager to see if it can beat these new metal fusion blades. iv not seen one up close yet ive not been to any toy stores for ages. but im gonna order one offline. im confident that my blade could still win. my blade is kinda a pre metal fusion, almost like i came up with that idea a years ago by accident. cus as u can see the defense ring i made is actually bigger than the attack rings. just like metal fusion. so i am reaaaaalllly interested to see how that works out and which blade would win.

Awesome.
To beat most of your other beys, it must have been carefully made.
