And also feels weak when i launch it
I'm going to buy one on Monday and look at the internals, I'll tell you if I see any chances for the string to become detached from the drive shaft. Then I'll recommend whether you should open it up or not, some of these spring retract systems can be very difficult to deal with...

And yes, this should be posted in the 'Ask a Question, Get an Answer' thread.

storm pegasus 105rf
Its most likely fake

I Got it from toys r us
Zacky, please give reason for your assumption.

Peg, your Beyblade is in the BeyWiki, I suggest you make sure that it meets the same criteria as that article before you decide it's fake. If you bought it from Hasbro, then it is not fake. Toys R Us hasn't held any fake Beyblades as far as I know. Zacky was probably a drive-by-posting, feel free to ignore him.

its hasbro and has the wbba sticker
Then it's most likely the string launcher, and like I said, I will be buying one tomorrow and observing the internal structure. Please be patient. Also, I edited my previous post, you may as well look at that before you get angry at Zacky.

I also recommend looking at Blaze Wheeler's video that he posted.

You could..
Clean the inside of the stadium. There might be dirt inside that affects performance
Clean the RF. Dirt gathers and stays on the RF.
Buy a new string launcher. Place the bad launcher in the package and return it for your money back.
Stratus also has good suggestions, getting a new string launcher would be the best option if that is the problem.
I haven't had the best return policy from Toys R Us in the past, but with the box and receipt they shouldn't have a problem with replacing the Beylauncher.
Or he could send it in to Hasbro and get a free replacement... But seriously, this thread did not need to be made. We have a thread for String Launcher Complaints, Whining About Your Broken Stuff, and Ask A Question Get An Answer to help with your problems. I'm not gonna be surprised if this gets closed.
Yes, Shadow, we are familiar with that already, but it does not appear that a moderator or admin has taken notice of it yet and we are attempting to help PBlader before such event occurs. You're points have been said multiple times in this thread, I ask you read the thread more carefully before providing your input.

Read the thread definitions before posting. At least... I thought that was the logical way....
