What It Is
A right-spin launcher Hasbro released for the Beyblade: Metal Fusion and Metal Masters toylines, later brought to Hong Kong by distributor Mani Limited in the Pegasis Leone Rev Up Launcher VS Set. Repeatedly pulling its string "revs up" an internal gear before a release button snaps the Beyblade free, making it the strongest launcher in the whole Metal Saga line, though right-spin only. That same release-button mechanism is also its weak point: repeated use commonly strips the small gear's teeth, making intact examples scarce today.
- Right-spin launcher for Beyblade: Metal Fusion / Metal Masters, by Hasbro.
- Uses a rev-up string mechanism with a release button, considered the strongest launcher in the Metal Saga line.
- Prone to breakage: the release button's sudden stoppage commonly strips the small gear's teeth after repeated use.
- Hong Kong distributor Mani Limited partnered with Takara Tomy to release it in black and white in the Pegasis Leone Rev Up Launcher VS Set (late 2011).
- Compatible with some Hasbro accessories, including the handle portion of the Launcher Grip.
Spin and gear teeth are given only where they are stated outright; the table leaves a figure blank rather than infer one.
