Description

Megaro Arm is an Attack-type top from Next Generation Beigoma Battle: Beyblade, cast in translucent black by Takara Tomy and in opaque black by Hasbro. Its Bit Chip depicts the Megaro Arm machine, its 4-gram Cross Dragon Attack Ring is shared with Makendo and Spin Dragoon, and its Flat Base Blade Base uses a screw fitting rather than the spin gear common to most first-generation plastic tops.

Parts in detail

Shares Cross Dragon and Flat Base with Makendo, but pairs them with the Heavy weight disk instead of Balance; also related in lineage to Ultimate Dragoon and Ultimate Dragoon V.

SlotPartWeightSpinNote
Attack Ring Cross Dragon 2.7 g Right only A small ring whose flat faces generate more recoil than useful attack power; its slight protrusion past Wide Survivor produces too much recoil for survival or spin-stealing use despite the small size.
Weight Disk Heavy 15.3 g The most compact weight distribution of any disk in the format, though individual copies vary noticeably in actual weight; its large corners add some recoil, offset partly by the compact distribution, placing it a tier below Ten Heavy and roughly comparable to Eight Heavy.
Blade Base Flat Base 6.5 g Right only (built-in spin gear) A very low base that can slip under opponents but can't take a Heavy Metal Core, ruling out serious traditional upper attack use, though decent lift gives it a workable semi-flat-stamina-style niche alongside Wide Defense.

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

In play and in the story

Its part ratings sum to Attack 6, Defense 6 and Endurance 4 across the stack, with the Attack Ring and Blade Base supplying most of its offence.
