Part by part

Parts in detail

A standalone release; a Coro-Coro exclusive recolor exists as Cyber Dragoon Battle Spec.

SlotPartWeightSpinNote
Attack Ring Cybernetic Dragon 5.3 g Right and Left A large, aggressive ring that generates immense rotational recoil in both directions — enough to bend itself backward over the Spin Gear — and while it's fairly powerful, especially in Right Spin with a Heavy Metal Core, the recoil keeps it just short of truly competitive.
Weight Disk Ten Wide 14.0 (Takara/Hasbro) / 14.3 (SonoKong G-Blade) g A moderately light disk with an outward weight distribution, less pronounced than Wide Defense/Wide Survivor; its recoil limits spin-stealing and survival use, but it remains strong for Smash Attack, especially with rings that Wide Defense would obstruct.
Spin Gear Right Spin Gear (MG Spring Version) with SG (MG Spring Version) core shells 1.1 each; Metal Weight Gear 1.12; core 3.8 g Right A gimmick core with poor balance that only worsens when its jump mechanism triggers, though its shaft is specifically required for Jumping Base 2 to work correctly since it can extend where the older SG (Spring Version) cannot.
Blade Base Jumping Base 2 6.8 g The combination of a jump-when-hit gimmick and a wide scraping ring initially looks like a recipe for failure, but a specific pairing with Hasbro's Flying Defense and SG (MG Spring Version) turns the free-spinning dish into a surprisingly effective grinding, Force-Smash-style mechanism.

Weights are single copies weighed on their own; a part can vary by a few tenths of a gram.

The competitive view

The MG-System plastic-era Attack starter Cyber Dragoon has a Cybernetic Dragon Attack Ring, Ten Wide weight disk, and SG Jumping Base 2 blade base with a magnet-triggered jumping gimmick. The part has no real competitive value despite an old OHKO reputation.
