If you expect to get good "combos" (i.e. more than one good combo) with only two beyblades you're probably going to be disappointed. Metal Dranzer uncustomized is probably the best thing there. Uncertain

lol, i didn't mean between the 2, i meant with changes such as, adding a 10 heavy wd, customize grip BB, etc. Also, i've heard the AR cybernetic DRagon(cyber dragoon) is good for OHKO customs, but i've also read in other places that it isn't even worth using. So, is it good good for OHKO?

If you want combos, list your parts. I can give you recommendations once I'm home and if you want part uses use the search function for metal Dranzer and check the draft for acb.

Cybernetic dragon is horrible, truly and weak, and again, I've made this clear multiple times so please search before asking any more questions.

Well yeah because it's a rare beyblade. The only place other than Dimsum (i'm assuming that's where you got it) is on YJA for 8000 yen.
I think DaWRETCHED-One has one in his shop IIRC. Honestly I always thought it was more common than the others because of that nasty color scheme.

It's a fair price for it, yes.
My opinion on the AR differs slightly from Ultra. Yeah, it's recoily as heck, but it is also one of the hardest hitting AR's out given a good setup and launch. It's a proper OHKO AR, in left spin anyway (in right spin it's just horrid). Generally you're better off going with something like Triple Tiger or other regular choices but it's still a good AR and a heckuvalot of fun, and the extra oomph can be useful sometimes.
Nah man. Until Dimsum came around there weren't any. However I guess I should note that his isn't the japanese version since the original one has 46 and his has 66 on it. Doesn't matter though. Still the same beyblade.
Him having it might be why I recall it being more common, haha.

Numbering thing is interesting though, (though it's 63).

I'm tempted to get one as it's a good AR and I only have the second (pole) mold version, and my Weight Ring broke so I only have a fake left, so I can't get the weight of it.

It wasn't from dimsum2u. It was from another seller for $20 on ebay. I wouldn't pay 8000 yen for a freaking Raiden (trying to keep things pg). The packaging was slightly damaged, although I have been wanting a rare hidden spirits bey for a while, so it was worth it for me. Also, Which is a better deal: NIB Raiden for $20, or NIB Hasbro White Hayate $15. I found the Hayate right after I bought the Raiden.

The color scheme is why I bought it over the other hidden spirits beys. I kinda like the pinkish purple color. It is pretty interesting.

I've got some questions first:

-What do you mean by EZ grip? You talking about this::

http://bladerkids.waruagaki.at-ninja.jp/...3_csmg.htm

I hope not because that's a customize grip and should never be called an EZ grip. This is why:

http://bladerkids.waruagaki.at-ninja.jp/..._ezshg.htm

That is called an EZ shooter grip. It's a common mistake but one i'm trying to stamp out.

For the Trypio is depends really. It's pretty awful. Also we do have an article on it so look around first please.

We have several threads that would tell you that. Please look for them. Also th!nk don't answer him.

There's no such thing as bit chip molds. There are two different types however. But everything beyond the 4 layer series uses the one without the plastic bit chip protector.
Does the Hasbro Appollon have any use? And is it rare? Secondly, how much does the Orange Hasbro Dranzer G go for(it is missing stickers BTW)?

so is that a yes so it will fit on voltaic ape per say?
Every bit chip should fit into any AR as long as it's from the same brand. Some sonokong and korean ones don't seem to fit.

It's never been tested but it's doubtful and it's likely to have a lot of recoil. It's reasonably rare yes. I mean most of the hasbro releases of the takara Random booster beys are. Not sure really about that. It would kinda depend on how much someone wanted it but I would say add a bit onto how much a NIB takara one costs on ebay I guess.

it fits but it is so flimsy ><
Are the AR and bit chip from the same beyblade or brand?
Um i'm not sure I understand your question.
I was asking Clonetos if the bit chip and the AR were from the same brand.

yes they are both TT I found out I needed to use the bit chip protector to make it fit. Silly me, hope I didn't cause too much of a ruckus XD on another note how good is rock bison?
(Aug. 19, 2012  8:35 PM)UltimateFantasy Wrote: Rock Bison is complete carp.

mind being specific? I need to know WHY it is carp
Look at the AR man. The points on it provide recoil and loss of spin and little else. The contain points which could possibly provide smash attack are enclosed and as such don't have any range. Also the blade base is up so high that it can't do anything but topple.
You guys forgot the engine gear. I know I've only mentioned it recently (because I only realised recently), but it has uses with Wolborg 4's CEW and stuff. Personally, I'm using Wolborg 4's BB and CEW and Rock Bison's EG, it gives noticeably better performance against zombies, though I'm not sure why (and if you use any base other than Wolborg 4's, which is perfectly round where it gets exposed by using rock bison's eg, you get issues against certain height opponents, like Semi Flat Base users for example).
I thought the AR was good in left-spin as like a zombie or something?
