Used or new? If new,
Wolborg 04
Driger G
SOK Driger S
Master Dragoon
Metal Driger

If used, you could get a ton of competitive things for under $20. The only main ones you couldn't that come to mind are-
Ariel 2
Dragoon V2
Gabriel- although you could just get Metal Dranzer and it would only be slightly worse
Ok, thanks Shinobu. But the ARs are very prone to breakage, right, Because they're plastic?
No actually. The ones most likely to break are attack type parts due to the protrusions and force exerted on them due to the speed. Plus attack type ARs usually have issues with recoil which doesn't help. Also most top tier parts for plastics aren't fragile. I've never heard of things like Tiger Defencer breaking.
SG Grip Base is supposed to be one of the best bases for attack, correct? Maybe I'm not launching it in the correct way, but it's not nearly as aggressive as my worn Customize Grip Base. Or is near mint just not the right condition for it to be effective?

Oh, really? Thanks! Also Ultra, I might be buying stuff from you, okay?

You mean the base from Uriel? Where did you hear that load of rubbish? The tips and their rubber material type are completely different. I mean seriously does anyone read the article on Ariel? This is the second time i've had to point out it exists.

AR: Tiger Defender/War Lion/Wing Cross (This last one being the best one)
WD: Wide Defense/10 Balance (Wide Defense being the best one)
SG: Right Engine Gear (Circle Survivor)
BB: Normal Base (Wolborg 4 Version)
And the combo is just a "normal-to-heavy" beyblade that is really round and with good stamina so is hard to KO and OS?

Also, how its customized an attack beyblade to use the tip of Ariel 02? is posible to make a low attacker with it?

Can someone answer my questions please? thanks!
Yeah that's essentially what it is. Due to the spinning nature zombie's have a hard time against it. Also Tiger Defencer and Wing Cross would be preferred for that combo. War Lion is overrated. I don't think that would work since the tip isn't really exchangeable except for one thing that th!nk found which is for smash attack. That's on beywiki in this article:

http://wiki.worldbeyblade.org/index.php/...tomization
IIRC..ten wide is more preferable substitute of wide defense in the wolborg 4 set up..
Nope. It's either Wide Defence or Ten Balance. Ten Wide is inferior in every way to Wide Defence too btw. th!nk described Wide defence as being better than ten Balance too.
Thanks ultra

Th!nk tried to explain it to me, but I'm still trying to understand the customization made on the SG (so many parts makes confuse me). The thing is that I'm trying to make a combo with G-Upper, so when I have the many to spend in it, I know what I have to buy (I don't want to waste money, some plastics are really expensive), Which combo would be better for it? because I want the most fastest and aggresive possible but using all the capacity of G-Upper

EDITE: Also, there are recolours of Wolborg 4?
yes..ice blue wolborg 4..exactly like ice blue wolborg ms..haha
Well not exactly. Yes they are probably the same colour or very similar. However the Wolborg 4 one is pretty much impossible to find. Only seen it once and it's not a well documented one since it isn't on the recolour site I use which has like everything on it. Also Wolborg MS one was released through the five saints HMS random booster and the Wolborg 4 was released through something that wasn't a random booster.

Huh, I'm not sure where I heard that. I could have sworn I remember hearing someone say that it was the fastest Plastics Base available.

And on Beywiki, it says that although the rubber tip can come off of Wolborg 2's shaft, it cannot be used without it? If I put it back on without using glue or any sort of adhesive, is it still legal? Because IIRC if an RF pops out of its socket it's illegal even if you force it back in.
I'm confused. I got this "Magnetic Weight Disc" (North and South Pole) from my friend today. But, my other weight disc which I got a flea market came in a package (sealed and it's Hasbro from the magnetic set/pack thingy) and its just a regular blue-painted weight disc. But the one I got from my friend, is actually the weight disc pictured in the pamphlet which came with the other one. I'm really confused- can someone identify which Weight Disc is which??
Thanks!

You can't legally fix any part once it's broken so no.

The magne weight disk is the North and South Pole one. Not sure why you have the blue painted one. You sure the thing you bought is actually hasbro?

Yes, it has the logo right on the pack- and it came with a V-Force product pamphlet, featuring the TV game, Magna-Core, and normal beys.
Wombat, you might be thinking of Ariel 2's base perhaps? It is the fastest base in plastics.

Leone19- Maybe post some pictures?

I'll definitely post some! (If not tonight, tomorrow for sure)
For now, it can be seen in this video of mine-

That looks like an 8 Heavy to me.

Does it look like a rare find? I mean, its single in a package, its Hasbro with some weird pamphlet, and its blue. Is it rare, valuable, or just another weight disk XD
I can't see the video, but if ShinobuXD is right, then it's not a MG one, I have a Magne Weight Disk, and is more like a 10 Wide in size

When you have a picture of it, it would be more easy to tell what is it, it's possible that is only a normal weight disk recoloured
Okay there's your problem. Someone has taken their's apart then put it back with some different parts then sold it off to any unsuspecting persons.
Yup. It isn't rare at all, a bunch of beys have it.

Ok. That's odd though, I mean it was SEALED in that package. Well, I have the magnet one now, so it's alright.
