Kendama Xross: KDX Pro Review

The new generation of KDX is here~


Kendama Xross Pro series!


KDX Pro is a KDX Official Shop Exclusive limited model.


Designed and Recommended by KDX ambassador KENDAMAN (NOB)


Contents:
KDX main spike body with 3 standard cups
Neon Green String
Rubber Surface Coated Tama
3 Rubber Surface Coated Enlarged Cups
2 Trick Cards
Instructions


The Tama is a fusion of the KDX-R Rubber Coating and KDX-S Enlarged Marked Spike Hole. 3cm to be exact to make those sweet spikes much a breeze!


The Rubber Surface Coated Tama and Enlarged Cups increases Balance and Stability for more complex tricks. Striped Marked Tama with gradient color makes Earth-Turns more visible.  Neon colored enlarged cups for spot on cup locating. 


The Ken Spike is from KDX-G with a much slimmer and longer spike. 


The Ken is also Bi-colored for making easier Ken flips.


The full assisted KDX-Pro is pretty much a super easy to use Kendama no matter if you are picking it up for the first time or just slaying for the kill.


KDX-Pro is easily the Best Kendama of the KDX series. A must buy for all KDX players and collectors item for KenColle~

20th February 2016
B-31 Starter Yggdrasil Ring Gyro
B-32 Shoot Support Rubber
B-33 Beyblade Burst BeyStaduim Standard Type (Black)

Quite a list of support attachment parts coming up  like the revival of the old Angle Compass, B-25 Angle Grip.
B-26 Rubber Assist will greatly assist Bladers with bigger hands improving grip by expanding the grip area.B-32 Shoot Support Rubber implements the slip tab design and also reduces impact breakage of the string ripcord.


The Re-release of the Valkyrie and Spriggan Starters into B-29, B-30 'Entry Packages' seems puzzling at this time especially when there seem to be no color variations. But according to the release, it comes with a version of Beylauncher called the 'Proto Launcher'. The Ripcord seems shorter and thicker and looks like the Beylogger cannot be attached to Beylauncher.

New sets of BG-01 Capsule Toy Random Layer Collection Volume 1 (5 designs, Clear versions of the 4 main Beys and 1 Exclusive Rare - Chaos Layer)

B-24 Random Booster Volume 2 (8 designs) are something to look forward to to get some new alternate color parts.


Not really sure about new Drivers like Xtreme, Needle, Zephyr and Gyro? Only Xtreme is reviewed in CoroCoro so far being a Rubber Flat (RF). Looking forward to the rest being reviewed.

Beyblade Burst! B-02 Spriggan Spread Fusion DX Starter Review

Second on the Beyblade Burst series~

B-02 Spriggan Spread Fusion DX Starter set!

Layout of Contents:

01 x Layer: Spriggan
01 x Disk: Spread
01 x Driver: Fusion
01 x BeyLogger
01 x BeyLauncher Light
01 x BeyWinder (Normal)
Instruction Manuals
Stickers

Layer: Spriggan

Motif: Ancient Guardian Golem
Point: Spriggan is a Oval shaped defensive Layer with two impact points. Both defense and attack modes all in one Layer.


Weight: 7.6 grams

The Spriggan Layer approximate diameter span 50.1mm (5cm) 


The base of the Layer has a minimum PVC section concentrated on two farthest points of the Poly Carbonate outer Layer. With only two contact point the Spriggan has a much lower weight distribution. The hollow sections increase recoil impact, in turn increases defense.

Disk: Spread

Motif: Nil
Spread is an all round balance weight disk with an even distributed mass area over a thin thickness ratio. Note the 'S' initials marked on the Disk.

Diameter: 41mm (4.1cm)

Weight: 20.75 grams

The outer circumference of the Spread Disk is curved downwards. This allows a 'push up' effect upon impact from the opponents Disk (if any). The Disk also more aerodynamically designed to Boost longer Spin Ratio. 

Driver: Fusion

Singular unit with a Burst Module. Fusion is similar to the previous Metalfight set up of Height 145 Flat Sharp (H145FS). 


Weight: 5.45 grams

The Fusion Driver as similar properties of an Accel bottom but the small sharp point in the center of it gives the driver a 'Stamina' capability when it reaches a lower spin ratio. (or when it slows down). It being a 2 in 1 Driver system, therefore 'Fusion'.

Performance: Standard Attack Stadium  
Using a Black Standard Attack Stadium for easy visualization purposes only.
(Please use Official Battle BeyStadium for Burst series to avoid any injury!)

Launched in parallel to the stadium surface, the Spriggan Spread Fusion moves fast circling the outer circumference of the Staduim. Similar behavior to the Accel Driver.

When the spin ratio reduces, the Bey slides to the center of the BeyStadium and switches to Stamina mode.

Summary:

B-02 Spriggan Spread Fusion DX Starter is an all rounded Bey with Defense, Attack and Stamina capabilities all in one. Highly recommended for first time Bladers. A 8/10 get for beginners and a great addition for competitive bladers looking for a Balanced setup.
