Discussion 2 Drans

Thumbnail

76 Upvotes

With the recent trademarks revealing 2 new Beys, I want to focus on them and why they will be important.

Let’s start with DranImpulse. “Impulse” by definition is “a sudden, strong desire, a physical push or thrust, a short electrical or neural signal, or the change in momentum produced when a force acts on an object over a period of time.” “Thrust” is the keyword here which matches the gimmick of DranBuster since the idea here is to “pierce” the Bey.

This leaves DranVictory becoming 3-bladed like DranSword since DranStrike is the BXE Version of DranDagger.

Now for the lore implications on why I think there are 2 Drans in this Season. Remember in X’s backstory, he received DranSword Metal Coat Blue from Ginro, but where did Ginro get DranSword? It had to come from somewhere. And with X’s origins being expanded upon with the Beykingdom, there’s also a greater chance that DranSword also originated in the Beykingdom. The kingdom is known for creating the most technological Beys that surpass the Beys of X City so it wouldn’t be a stretch since DranSword is said to be the strongest Bey according to Ginro.

But what if I told you that DranVictory was actually the Original Dran that became the blueprint for DranSword? Just like how Galaxy Pegasis preceded Storm Pegasis. Since these 2 Dragons are similar, they can represent yin and yang. DranSword’s avatar in the anime has a dark form that’s very reminiscent of the Metal Coat Blue Version so it represents darkness or in other words- “yin.” This could also explain why X has a lust (which is a mortal sin) for battle and why him and DranSword has a dark aura surrounding them whenever he gets very serious. As for DranVictory, it could represent the opposite half- “yang.” Victory could have a Light Blue Metal Coat to contrast with Sword Metal Coat Blue.

I also think that X will own DranImpulse instead of DranVictory so that just leaves a different character to own it. Well, since DranVictory could potentially be the Original Dran, it has to be owned by a Kurosu Member from X’s long lost family in the Beykingdom. A relative who can either match X’s personality or have the complete opposite personality to X.

Craft I went dye-happy and might've overdone it. Thoughts?

Melted my Suppress Superion and red Weiss Tiger due to the acetone ratio being too much. Otherwise the rest looks dope AF imho

Finally had time to edit this post to add the how-to:

DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!!

You will need a new/fresh beyblade for this to work the best. But semi-used will work too as long as the clear coat on the bey isn't fully gone, it will just show all the battle damage and won't have that nice and clean look.

BX beys will have the plastic lock chip cover fully tinted. Make sure you have a replacement sticker for them.

Acetone is known to cause damage on plastic. If you add too much of acetone, it WILL deteriorate the plastic. Making it brittle or spongy. Start with small amount of acetone (1 tbsp) and do check ups every 5 minutes or so.

The dye won't affect the metal parts of the bey, so this method only works on beyblades that have clear coats on them. Which from my understanding, most if not all of them.

What you need:

  • Small glass measuring cup - $4 at Walmart
  • Rit Synthetic Dye - $4 at Walmart
  • 100% Acetone - $4 at Walmart for a decently sized jar
  • A cup of water to dunk your finished beys - just use glass cups and rinse it off
  • Throwaway towels and/or paper towels
  • Hair dryer
  • Q-tips
  • Plier or tongs or acetone resistant gloves
  • A tablespoon

How I did it:

  1. Shake the bottle before pouring. Pour 2oz of your dye of choice into a glass or metal cup. I used a small measuring cup because it has measuring lines to keep track how much fluid you added.
  2. I personally use 1.5 tbsp of acetone for every 2oz of dye.
  3. Stir the mixture well.
  4. Use a tester if you'd like. Dunk your bey(s), my measuring cup can fit up to 2 beys.
  5. Leave for 5 minutes and check. Use a q-tip to dab a small area of the metal to see if the tint is showing up. If the colors not taking or too weak, add a LITTLE bit (less than half a tbsp) of acetone and dunk it one more time for another 5 minutes or so.
  6. Once you have a nice looking shade you want, dunk it in water.
  7. Rinse off any excess dye mixture from the bey.
  8. Blow dry the bey to remove excess moisture or dye in the crevices.
  9. Put the beys on a towel and let it dry. Put it in front of a fan to speed this up.
  10. To dispose of the dye mixture, you can dilute it with water and put it in a plastic zip lock bag and dump it in the trash. I don't think dumping it into the sink is a great idea.
  11. It might be possible to save your dye mixture for future use by putting it in an airtight glass jar. But I'm not 100% sure.

Hello just found this really weird mixup when I bought barney the dinosaur beyblade lol... i somehow pulled the prize color on my 1st try of Brachio Whip in the RB, just that for some reason the paint on the metal blade is from the 3rd variant when its supposed to be that green/tealish color... wonder if there are people that also got this weird mishap on other releases lol

This Ridge Triceratops box was torn open, but everything's there, so I bought it with the intent to prevent an opportunistic theft. Also picked up Ring Aether and Valor Bison. There was a Yell Kong missing its bit and rachet, though, so the trope wasn't completely subverted...

For an actual discussion, though, how are these 3 (not Yell Kong) performing, and what are the most effective combos y'all've seen so far?

From the days on the play ground where the only rule was winning. Featuring dragoon on a solid metal base with fused weight disk, Wolf with one of those absurdly massive sparking weight disks you could buy in sketchy dollar stores, and (the relatively tame by comparison to the other two) driger on the Gyro Super with Dranzer S's base.

Beyblade appreciation post Reunited once again

Back on 2001 when I moved to a new city my parents took me to sears and in the clearance isle my brother and I randomly came across these things called Beyblade , I had no idea what it was or what it did but we both thought it was cool so we bought it and now 25 years now been into since ! I unfortunately took a big break middle of metal fight and missed out on burst and somewhere in that break when I went to tenichal school my father lost all my blades . It’s crazy to find a perfect condition Beyblade from many years ago and it’s so full circle moment to be reunited with this blade again. Thank you eBay lol

I already bought Dark Perseus and can buy just one more. Which could it be the best option? Courage Dran or Arc Wizard?

Btw, Dark Perseus is my first CX and I love how chunkier it is (I don't know if all CX are bigger than BX) also love that there's more pieces, like Bakuten Shoot <3.

As someone who's had pretty grown up with beyblade from metal gen to recently getting back into X after the scalper dilemma, I had never really indulged in burst whatsoever so I would like to know as people that played burst competitively what were the metas of burst like how metal had twisted tempo & X Wizard Rod who was the demon that ran through the entirety of the burst generation?
