Holy snap, that’s actually pretty cool!
Hmmm, seeing that Valtryek V4 again, that colour scheme, as well as being the fourth main character beyblade released from Hasbro, reminds me so much of the Metal Fury non 4D Cosmic Pegasus. The colour scheme between the two are so similar to me.
Honestly, I kinda like the recolored Valtryek V4 and Z Achilles. I will try to get the battle set, though. I did it with the Star Storm set so I could go Satomb and Genesis Valtryek.
On the leaks I shared in here there was also a new launcher sold separately, called Precision Strike Bey Launcher, which I'm not sure what it's going to be about yet, since there was no information on it, but since everything else has already been confirmed, we might see images of it rather soon.
Precision Strike? Huh... Wasn’t that in the Metal Saga?
I wouldn't honestly know since I jumped back into beys with the first burst wave, the launcher appeared during the same days, with the same release date and with the same "Beyblade Burst" description the rest of the items had. And every new saga has been released with a new launcher so it does make sense.
Ohhhh... Eh, I just hope it performs well.

I think I’ve stumbled upon something! Did you guys ever notice how the Hasbro Beys for the starters have the same design as the TT ones? (I noticed the holes and slits on the layers where a level chip would go.)
Wouldn’t that suggest that maybe SlingShock revolves around that? They mentioned a battle ring mode, so I’m certain that that’s what it means!
Or maybe it’s an attachment to the performance tip?
Maybe Hasbro will include 2 performance tips per slingshock bey: one for normal mode and the the other for rail mode. The extra performance tip would be stored inside the slingshock launcher, along with the ripcord!
Laban, that may be what they’l do!
So if you’re subscribed to channels like zankye, illinuc, etc, you would’ve heard about the huge leaks on beyblade burst turbo. And while we were all hyped and excited for this, we were all thinking about one thing that worried all of us, even the youtubers. That slingshock title on the packaging. Don’t lie, if you’ve seen the leaks, you thought about how badly this could go, as it could mean hasbro was putting a dumb gimmick or twist to these new beys, like in the past with those pencil beyblades or the beyblades with “special abilities” (you know like that jumping pegasus or that beyblade that pops out plastic blades that just kill its stamina, oh that was trash). Worry not however! As I’ve done extra research on the new releases, checked websites with it listed for pre order, and have found some more or less good news. The new beys are gonna have a kinda cool yet also dumb gimmick where you can, and I quote “ride the rails”. Basically it’s gonna be like infinity nado where and how they have special performance tips that let them ride across these rails. Now before you go “of for ——- sakes hasbro”, the description of the products also said that the drivers could switch between modes, one of which was battle ring mode, which as you guessed is just normal beyblade, no gimmicks or dumb stuff. So let’s all calm down and be glad that we can choose whether we want the gimmick or not. Let me know your thoughts on this and have a great day!

Im actually okay with this! I always felt it would be custom Drivers for this "Slingshock" Gimmick, Similar to the rubber tracks for the Destroyer Dome. Im glad we have the option of choice, cause choice and customization is a staple in the beyblade franchise. Im excited for this drop!

I’m hyped too! And even though I was calling the gimmick dumb, I remember watching infinity nado videos of when they did the rail riding and it seems kinda fun and I expect the same out of burst.
Thanks to the SlingShock system, everyone has a reason to get Hasbro Beys!

nah. it looks incredibly stupid to me, tbh. looks like hasbro is continuing the idiocy of the battle tower foolishness. i’m sorry, but this garbage isn’t beyblade.

Honestly, at least they aren’t completely converting just to this? I’d say the beys look pretty nice, and since there not just made for the stadium, you can at least have them how they are normally, I wouldn’t say it’s bad though

Hi, I wanted to let you know that I've moved your posts from your thread to this one, as discussions about new releases can be done here instead of making a new thread for it.
Thank you.

Oh I didn’t know that, so thank you too!
This Slingshock thing is like if Hasbro packaged all the Metal Fury beys with Dome Tracks. To force all the beys to play into a gimmick in a stadium that will likely never see competitive gameplay wise is quite frankly disgusting. I hope that after the Burst series is over, TT revokes Hasbro's distribution rights and gives it to a company that cares about making a quality product.
Why Hasbro changed Changed colour scheme of Valtreyek V4 and Achilles A4? Any idea???

probably the same reason they changed V3's color in the starter,because the "Anime Accurate" colors of V4 and A4 are in a set

The same reason a recolored Genesis Valtryek was a part of wave 1 starters, and the Valtryek V2 and Spryzen S2 in the starters are recolors. The set will have the stock colors.
so the slingshock technology from what i understand now is that there might be a normal or battle ring performance tip and then there will be a slingshock performance tip or the performance tip might have two modes because the slingshock technology is supposed to go with the rail rush stadium which is probably the real life equivalent at least to hasbro burst stadiums as the super z stadium with the rails as seen in the anime so i didn’t expect hasbro to make that stadium form the anime to an actual stadium
I did the math on the ultimate switch strike battle set and here are my results.
If you were to buy 6 switch strike beys plus a stadium: that would be around $68
The set is $80.
That is around a $12 diffrence
man revive phoenix if it does get like complete takara tomy treatment but with hasbro slopes revive phoenix is gonna get a lot tougher to beat
I’ve always liked the phoenix inspired Beys. Dranzer, Fireblaze, Phoenix from ZG, and even Garuda!
