Just saying... imagine doing that with original 5+ min. mold Virgo. And I'm almost done with my entry. Would you like the aggression or the resistance mix type? Halfway done with aggression and third done with resistance mix, so yeah.
EDIT: Sorry for the double post, didn't realize that my last post was the last one.
Here we go! I'm entering my aggression type:
Meteor Chain P CS XRF (Puncture) (Change Spikes) (Extreme Rubber Flat)
Lock Ring: Chain. This lock ring resembles Yin and Yang, and the name is derived from this symbol (Chain=Chain of events=Cycle/Balance XD). The Upper Left mode of the Meteor Main ring fits into this perfectly, but other wheels fit as well.
Main Ring: Meteor. This main ring has spikes facing in one direction and two slopes shaped like falling meteors similar to DEMS for Upper attack. This wheel has two modes as well: Upper Left and Right Spike. While Upper Left also provides spike attack, the upper attack slopes are more prominent, and the spikes are there if the slopes fail. In Right Spike mode, the upper slopes are on the bottom, and therefore, only the spikes will come in contact with other main rings. This provides for effective Spike Attack against other X's. Both the lock ring and main ring are wide, for the main ring to accommodate other lock rings.
Sub Ring: P (Puncture). This wheel is small with many holes in it (hence the name Puncture), allowing for a light weight X and better aggression type. This also helps facilitate the use of the XCore's short mode and gimmick, which combined make a great choice for aggression types and helps maintain balance
XCore: CS (Change Spikes). This core has metal on the top and bottom, and plastic in the middle. By pulling out the spikes in the middle of the plastic piece, the core collapses. This makes the core shorter and adds a new wheel with spikes for spike attack under sub ring. The core gives sub ring attack power and helps to attack core of other X's while keeping X using the core at a low height. Also used for resistance in other x's in tall mode, and helps prevent direct attacks on the core for resistance and durability types in tall mode by repelling with small spike attack.
Tip: XRF (Extreme Rubber Flat). This tip is the same width, height and shape of XF, but is completely made out of rubber. This allows for the fastest possible movement of any aggression type while still holding the ability to move in a flower pattern via Slash technique and attack resistance and durability types staying in the center.
Here is the picture (If you cannot read it or properly see a certain part, just tell me and I will post another pic of the specified piece, but larger. I used Paintbrush (MS Paint of Macs), so it took time to do some of the writing.

"In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little, yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so. But there are times when a critic truly risks something, and that is in the discovery and defense of the new. The world is often unkind to new talent, new creations. The new needs friends. Last night, I experienced something new: an extraordinary meal from a singularly unexpected source. To say that both the meal and its maker have challenged my preconceptions about fine cooking is a gross understatement. They have rocked me to my core. In the past, I have made no secret of my disdain for Chef Gusteau's famous motto, "Anyone can cook." But I realize, only now do I truly understand what he meant. Not everyone can become a great artist; but a great artist can come from anywhere."
