Whine about your breaks

Remind me in a day or two and I'll get you some pictures/instructions, as I need to take a few of mine apart and oil them up so there will be decent spare launchers at the tourney I'm planning. The only real pain is resetting the spring that stops the prongs from spinning when the ripcord is removed and not having it pop the lever thing it uses for that off before you can put the top of the chassis back on.

Another Earth Break, same as the last two. (Click to View)

... aaaaaand there goes the last of the three earths that survived all my use back in the day but had this same break occur to all of them since Limited started. If anyone has an idea what the heck is going on here, please let me know because I don't want this to happen to my 32.9g one. I am incredibly lucky that my parents are willing to foot the bill of this particular breakage, though I feel rather guilty about it, but yeah, this is getting kinda ridiculous.

thats what happened to both of my brothers earths, except the whole "bridge" broke. But then again, my brother has broken a whole bunch of poor,innocent, helpless parts.

The bridge would break entirely (like my last two) if I kept using it, I just spotted it beforehand this time. It is design fault, but you'd think I would've run into the problem back in the day if it's happening to me this frequently...

Does it affect performance badly?


My EDS is deformed, also most of my WD smashed hardly onto the ground after being KOed,
there goes most of my WD stocks. Sigh.

It noticeably affects the balance if they actually break off, which it will do quickly after the initial break. It makes a part illegal anyway though, either way.

So I was trying some stuff related to the standard format cc list update, and I got out MF-H Flash Escolpio SA165RF and MSF-H Genbull Genbull E230RDF and right away, the latter flew apart. This had happened:

Which I've heard about plenty of times, so I went and grabbed another, put Genbull Genbull back together, launched again and...

Immediately. No rounds between, just right off the bat, it explodes again and I'm like "well at least it's probably not going to be two breaking consecu-[omitted]"

So yep, taking my one remaining MSF-H and going back to Limited. Smith


Oh btw the Earth break I keep getting is a result of changes they made to that part with Mold 2, the mold 1 version was sturdier there. way2go TT good fix 10/10

@think: Ouch. That's gotta hurt, now I need to be careful with my MSF Custom Ver too.

At least beys breaking almost never happened to me, from the day i bought my first beyblade until now, I've only broken one EWD and three Normal faces.

Though I broke one L/R Launcer and my friend broke another one. Now i'm worried about my last one remaining (from BB-80)

Could it possibly be partially due to Flash hitting Genbull so hard it snaps it? I've destroyed regular faces with Attack types before via Upper Smash, and since there's less plastic holding the threading together (a ring vs. solid plastic) I expect that may be part of the problem.

But yeah, that sucks. Unhappy

EDIT: Spoilers Tongue_out

EDIT2: Yup, definitely Flash's fault. TBD got an identical break apparently, and 165 is basically a perfect height for massive smashiness.

Probably along those lines. I've played with the matchup before without issue so bad luck is also part of it, but yeah.

Really though it's because of how stupidly that piece is designed. I don't know what the quality assurance process is with Takara but whoever was paid to look that over and still missed the fact that the central pole only extends to the attachment point and after that the face is a long, hollow, plastic cylinder should be booted out onto the street.
Mar. 09, 2014  11:59 PM
 
Wow, here I was thinking that the metal pole extended completely down the length of the cylinder. Dang, what a shame.

Nah man, both Ingulit and myself noticed that pretty quickly once the breaks started, and were baffled by how awful a design decision it was. TT should give us jobs in QA.

Broke my MF-H when I tried to pry it out with a nail-cutter after it got stuck on Libra 85RS (the top part which is all-metal separates from the bottom). Thankfully these are very common in my area (and I have loads of spares) so it's not much of a deal)

Literally broke my brown F230 in half just now while testing it against attack in my new BB-46 stadium. Pretty bummed because I only had one & I hate overusing my orange one.

How did it happen? What combination was it against?

My MSF-L broke throughout free battle at Grand Battle Encore last weekend.

I still need to get my prize from the WBO 5th Anniversary Scavenger Hunt, though.

I had a Hasbro Lightning LDrago; and the heads smashed in and the wheel has dozens of dents and cuts in it. His tip started to look like Q(quake).

And 2 days ago, my poor Draciel Metal Ball Defencer's blade base broke due to the power of SonoKong Dragoon Storm. No more balls for the turtle );

One of my Earth wheels fell into pieces. Never launch it into a brick wall!
May. 30, 2014  11:37 PM
 
Well, My T125, Metal face, and ES broke, Never Over use/launch into a pile of beyblades!!

Haha, that's how my 100 broke.

Actually I have a funny story about a break. My friend got a Blitz Striker (Unicorno) in the mail and the metal wheel's center was warped and cracked; so the clear wheel and track wouldn't screw on. I used some pliers to try and straighten it...and the whole center circle broke off! And guess what? I actually fixed it! She was able to tighten the whole thing together with no problem! And it works fine! XD

My Pegasis Wheel isn't broken per say, but the wheel came in mail (like one year ago lol) without proper edges. And there's a dent.

Doing some Limited testing and Omega broke the horn of my H145.... ;(
Jun. 29, 2014  9:23 PM
 
I remember th!nk told me something about using Omega to break parts, hah.

But that really sucks dude. It is a valuable part after all.

Probably could have posted this yesterday, but I broke my SF during free play at a tournament. Unfortunately I had stumbled across a potentially good combo for it earlier, but I was now unable to actually use it in the tournament Unhappy
