Whine about your breaks

And even Victory Valkyrie itself, reinforced, still breaks:

Apparently people in Japan are not even buying Zillion Zeus much anymore and many have sent letters to TAKARA-TOMY but they are not responding.

I'm still waiting on this to happen to a solid color reinforced V2 for me to be really worried, but it's interesting that the whole section broke off instead of just the wing.

Speaking of that, my early V2 still hasn't broke on me yet. Fascinating. lol

You might have spoke too soon...

Dagnabbit, I jinxed it. lol
Ah well, I was gonna stock up on Hasbro V2s when I get the chance anyway.
Saw this on Twitter:

Almost all the Dual Layer breaks so far are next to a screw. My guess is that the screw prevents the shock from being distributed which, combined with the thin pieces of plastic that are left to absorb shock on their own (Basic Beys had two layers that could absorb the shock, including a harder outer layer), makes these areas extremely vulnerable.
I think I've seen that before, but I just assumed it was the same as the last photos of them breaking.
It's from October 10th!

Well all the breakage photos blend in anyway, surprisingly more so than V2 for me.
lol, I don't disagree. I definitely checked the date before sharing because it looked familiar to me too.
While a Chaos break is nothing new, this one is so severe!

It's like it's transforming into a Dual Layer
So I bought a long winder launcher about a week ago and I can already see the preformance is lower. I know its not really a break but does anybody have a fix for it? It doesnt have to be legal because I dont live near any competition and I have spares jist in case a tourney does happen

Could you go into more detail? I just ordered a long winder and a few other products but I keep hearing that they are not very durable. =/

I am not sure about how Bladerguy2's is, but mine started to skip pretty bad. I tried the long winder on other light launchers and it just seems like the teeth on the long winder have worn.
Another big half break of Chaos, the white one:

I think I showed that just before, or at least it looked exactly like that break. It was in a video. That's like Chaos transforming into a dual layer lol.
In the video, it was the black version, no? But yes, it was the same sort of break.
Ah yes it was the black one. I actually remember it being the clear one for some reason. Thanks for pointing that out.

aye aye aye.
Then again, this could be due to excessive launch speed/use in general.
Nevertheless, disappointing.

Wow, the day finally came. This Midnight wheel is broken, or at least it will be since the wing is bent outwards with only a thin bit of metal supporting it. Luckily, I just so happen to find a Midnight Bull in my WHSmith in Uni, seriously that was lucky.

R.I.P Midnight wheel
Wow that Metal Wheel is trashed though. What the hell did you do with it?
Extensive use, or that it was breaking through intense battles and that I didn't notice until now. If you're talking about the silver paint, I had it lying around my box full of parts and whenever I search through my disorganised box of parts.

I rarely break metal wheels to this extent, Lightning is the only one I've broken to this level, the rest such as Earth have the small parts near the track break.
As we expected, here is one Exceed Evil-eye break:

Yes, I already posted that and another Inferno Ifrit break in the B-64 topic.
