Parts in detail

One of three prize Beyblades from Takara's Random Booster 11, alongside Manta Diver and Crab Diver; the trio came in Red/Orange, White, and Blue, with White as this Beyblade's prize color. Hasbro later issued Manta Diver separately in its G-Revolution line, paired with Ten Heavy and SG Flat Base.

SlotPartWeightSpinNote
Attack Ring Delta Wave 4.3 g A moderately aggressive, fairly compact ring giving decent right-spin Smash Attack, though with more recoil and less range than classic top choices, and its contact points wear quickly; not usable in left spin due to poorly angled points.
Weight Disk Random selection (Takara release) — Takara's packaging randomizes which Weight Disk ships with the set, among Star Attack, Revolver Attack, Ten Heavy, Ten Balance, and Ten Wide.
Weight Disk Ten Heavy (Hasbro release) 16.1 g The heaviest legal Weight Disk; a compact, edge-weighted spread favors defense over attack and sustains RPM well for grinding, defense, force-smash, and upper-attack builds.
Spin Gear Neo Right Spin Gear (Metal Weight Version) 1.15 each shell (2.3 total) + 2.5 (Metal Weight Core) g Right Neo shells' broad compatibility (including Neo cores and the Heavy Metal Core) makes this a staple for Compacts, Weight-Based Defense, Force Smash, Traditional Upper Attack, and Driger V2 setups; the Metal Weight Core is a touch lighter than a Magnecore, capping its edge for Attack types, but it remains broadly serviceable and common.
Blade Base SG Flat Base 4.4 g The shortest base in Plastics; struggles to hold a flower pattern with only average stamina and recoil control, but is a passable backup for Traditional Upper Attack and Compacts, and has a defensive/stamina niche similar to Semi-Flat Base Stamina builds (paired with Wide Defense and a compact ring), trading slightly worse Life-After-Death than Flat Base for Spin Gear customization options.

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

Community testing, Oct. 13, 2011 — summarised

The competitive view

Orca Diver's parts are its Delta Wave Attack Ring, Random Weight Disk, Neo Right SG, and SG Flat Base; the bey is considered aesthetically pleasing but not top-tier. The attack ring's performance and a recommended combo are disputed.

  • Weights: Delta Wave AR 5g, Neo Right SG 5g, SG Flat Base 5g
  • Pull rate: 1/12 from Random Booster 11
