Did Hasbro reinforce it more than TAKARA-TOMY's own reinforced version? Because the latter came first, not Hasbro's.
[Product] B-34 Starter Victory Valkyrie .B.V
Hopefully Hasbro won't be lazy and deny us stickers like they did from metal fury onwards.
Any particular reason why it's always that wing and not the other two? Is that one any different to the others?

Is that one any different to the others?Just a speculation but do you think it could be due to the large amount of plastic behind only that wing which would increase the weight behind it putting it under more pressure?
Bought myself a V2 today, but then realised that this thing is extra fragile. Collection purposes anyway, doubt if I will be too concerned about it.
Not especially sure why that particular wing (on the Valkyrie's crown decoration) is more prone to damage, since viewing it from both sides shows that although the wheel is slightly asymmetrical, the joining positions between the extrusions and the main wheel part is identical, unless there are invisible pores or weakness points caused by the wheel molds.
Most likely Valkyrie will recieve mold 2 updates just like Kerbeus (MFB) and the rest of those in MFB series, and may put in more reinforcing designs (extrusions under the hollow part that coheres the wings with the wheel even more, for instance, although the ones in MFB tend to be nerfed rather than buffed). Since the increase of weight is likely to be neglible due to the light weight of plastics used, I doubt if the design improvement will lead to an exceptionally large performance inprovement/retardation, nor there will be a call for nerfing in other positions of the wheel to neutralise the additional weight (given that the wheel itself is already fragile enough). Even they don't release patches/version 2's with the exact same packaging, they will most likely release the reinforced ones as a 3-in-1 pack with new parts, or like how they released Galaxy Pegasis (MFB) as a booster instead of a Starter.
Edit: About the image TT posted related to the tip of .B .V, (translated by the Kanji I could understand) it shows 3 stages of the Tip: Brand new, slightly bent after usage, and highly worn-out. Their performance will change a lot.
If TT stated that specifically (after a ton of questions with regards to the fragility of the rubber), it is likely to mean that the wearing of the tip, is in fact Intended, to give the impression of "the more you use it the better it will become". But it seems to be going too far and will soon render itself useless. I would just make the spikes larger in similar fashion to that of R2F/LRF if I were to design it, although they wear out really easily even with rough rubber......

We already know, about Variable, from several months ago.

Yeah, just realised about it, so I added another statement about the design is not good enough.
I am being dormant since the release of Valkyrie Wing Accele (or somewhere around), so I pretty skipped alot of things, including the final conclusion about that.
We have images of the Gold, Silver and Bronze V2s that will be given to winners of the upcoming WHF events.
Sorry for the blurriness. Thanks once again @[marutti]!!!

4 days into obtaining V2 and its wing finally broke off while facing a Ragnaruk..
Nice design but performance wise wasn't very durable

That gold version is super pretty... it's honestly such a shame that it breaks so easily. That seems to be the theme of the Valkyrie family in general: "don't use this! you're gonna destroy it!"
This is likely to be the only occasion you get to see a Fire Red Victory Valkyrie in your whole life:

Man i'm hearing a lot of breaks with this Bey. Hoping Hasbro fixes the problem on their release because it seems like V2 is a viable part.

It was the prize for a CoroCoro lottery. Pretty hard to get.
Imagine if someone were to use that thing...
One thousand copies exist, but CoroCoro lottery prizes traditionally never end up on auction sites.
Wow, the red one looks really stellar!
I would hope Hasbro would make a red V^2; unless we get one in a random booster.

The second I saw another Fire Red Ver. on Ameba, I knew it was too available not to be on Yahoo! Japan Auctions, and as a matter of fact:
http://page13.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/au...r152026653
15,000 yen though.

I saw it sat 15,000 yen on the website actually. I doubt it's gonna stay on for nuch longer.

It's 15000 not 150000 so i'd say that's a good price. However it's still got nearly 6 days left so it will totally go up.

even i think 20000 is low for it.
wow imagine if it was pounds or dollars
