Takara Tomy Beyblade Starter BB-80 Gravity Perseus AD145WD

I would like to start off by saying this Bey Blade is one of the few that I actually don't regret getting. It has remarkable knock back, defense, and stamina qualities which is an amazing team up of attributes in any top. Nevertheless I am obliged to state not only the good, but also the bad. First, the launcher: seeing as it is both a right and left spin launcher, kids tend to get a bit, let's say, 'overly enthusiastic'. The string, even though it is coated with durable wax film, breaks easily if pulled to hard too many times. Also, it is a rather hard launcher to get used to. First time users of string-launchers don't seem to want to pull out the cord all the way, and end up with a half-speed launch which is easy to defeat in battle. Now, for the Flipping Awesome. Since it is both a Defense type, a Counter type, left spin and right spin, you can change it up each battle to optimize it's performance and to take out even the most challenging opponents. Facing an attack type Left-Spin? Use the Defense Right-Spin mode. Facing a Defense type Right-Spin? Use the Counter Left-Spin. This is a great top for experienced Bey Blade users, but is NOT recommended for first timers. If your unexperienced with both left and right spin, get an L-Drago and a Leone first, and try them out. Take mental notes on their pros and cons, and familiarize yourself with both.

Horrible!

The Beyblade is good quality, what sucks is the launcher. It was working fine until I launch the bey and it wouldn't wind back up. But then again, I kept using it a little to much and then it got to the point where it jammed. So I will admit that I pushed it a little to far. But I wont let that affect my review of this product because the launcher lasted for a few good months before it jammed. I was very pleased and happy with the product. If I had a choice to buy it again, I would.

There are 3 main makers of beyblades out here. Taka Tomy, hasbro and Taka Tomy/ Song KONG.The best made are the pure Taka Tomy ones. This was my first time trying a Song Kong version. This this was suppose to be Gravity P., a really good and some what heavy bey. This thing is as light as the free beys I got from the hasbro vortex stadium, launcher broke after the 6th pull. All my side paint came off am so mad with this product $26 bucks for a hasbro freebie looking bey man this this is so so small you will be disappointed for sure. In one of the pics you can see I compare it with the beyblade from the hasbro vortex stadium

My 9 year old son competes with beyblades at school. This is his review: Best bey I've had, it is very strong. It is really good at spinning counter-clockwise and not stopping. The facebolt does have a small tendency to come off if you don't screw it on with a tool, otherwise there is really nothing bad about the bey. However, the launcher it comes with is really bad. The second day I had the launcher it got broken. It's worth buying, but make sure you have another launcher to use, it can launch with either clockwise or counterclockwise launchers.

Good

I remember it saying in the title takara tomy but sonokong was still good anyway so I just opened it the beyblade was perfectly fine everything was right but the string launcher broke after 5 pulls and I didn't even pull that hard. I tried to fix it and it wouldn't even fix right. I was so excited when I got it and I'm so disappointed now I really wanted a working string launcher what a waste of 28.99 dollars.

This is a great beyblade for anyone who loves them. It is great for custom beyblades, and comes with a really cool LR launcher! The launcher broke, but that was most likely because of how much it was used in a short amount of time. Plus, it was able to be fixed very easily. Great for anyone who needs a new launcher and a new shiny beyblade!
