A CoroCoro-exclusive black recolour of Takara's Metal Driger, distinguished by a Knight Driger bit sticker and recoloured decals.

SlotPartWeightSpinNote
Attack Ring Cross Spiker 4.7 g Left (competitive) / Right (not quite) In right spin its flat, vertically-lined faces give decent but not quite competitive power once recoil is managed, hampered slightly by triangular protrusions; in left spin its outward-facing contact points (similar to a mirrored Cross Attacker) make it a genuinely competitive smash attack ring, best paired with Ten Wide for extra contact exposure.
Weight Disk Ten Heavy 16.1 g The heaviest legal weight disk, prized for sustaining RPM across compacts, traditional upper attack, weight defense and circle survivor defense, among other archetypes; on faster attack bases it also boosts rotational smash on rings like Square Edge, broadly outclassing both Heavy and Eight Heavy.
Spin Gear Heavy Metal Gear Shells + Heavy Metal Core 3.8 (shells) + 6.2 (core) g The Heavy Metal Core is the heaviest Neo core in the format and, notoriously, was never released by Hasbro; it's essential for compacts, weight-based defense, force smash and traditional upper attack, and also boosts recoil control on powerful smash rings when the blade base is fast enough to carry the extra weight.
Blade Base First Clutch Base (Metal Driger Version) 6.9 g Activates its engine-gear clutch at the start of battle, making it somewhat less self-destructive than a Final Clutch base since it tends to just break flower pattern rather than self-knockout; it's outclassed for lift by the lighter Normal Base (Wolborg 4 Version) and Normal Base (Rock Bison Version).

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