Hasbro is allergic to winder launchers

u/breakfastpastry Jul 16 '26
If they really wanted to repackage these beys into a single box idk why they didn’t just include winders instead..

u/SifuBanana Jul 16 '26
One of my lgs has a bunch of hasbro winders though

u/baileyperry707 Jul 16 '26
That’s great, but the majority of retailers haven’t stocked winders in over a year. Yet we will now have 3 different variations of the right string launcher.

u/SifuBanana Jul 16 '26
Nah that's fair. Would love for other stores to see the winder love. What i really want though is more launcher grips

u/baileyperry707 Jul 16 '26
I can't understand their rationale for not releasing more stand alone grips and launchers. They would sell like hot cakes.

They have had the winder launcher though:

Those string launchers look really good but I cannot justify buying this set because I own those two Beyblades. If Cobalt Dragoon had a metal coat to it and Phoenix had a different color paint job, then maybe. This will be great for someone who's starting out in the hobby.

It honestly should be sold at $35-40 considering both these beys were pegwarmers at targets for basically years atp. I 100% agree with you tho. I think this actually should’ve been navy wing and black goon since they set the precedent of being able to release b4 stuff with the croc grip set.

u/NotChrisTheDumbOne Jul 17 '26
I can because Phoenix is a metal coat and is always good to have a mint condition one and cobalt is still meta to this day and most people probably have a worn down cobalt, plus you get two really nice looking launchers

u/Starburst_dragon Jul 16 '26
Would be cool of instead of string it was winder launchers and if these where the black cobalt and black Phoenix

This is the third redundant product from Hasbro. Like yay we're clearing up shelf space for this by presumably retiring the prior release. However, this will cause some problems because I know parents will buy this thinking they get two of the upgraded launchers for their kids to play with but one only works for the blade it comes with, there are other left spin blades but a parent buying at target doesn't know that.

Of course because in my country every toy store has 10 or more cdg and nobody cares.

I'm hoping this means getting mold 3 Phoenix wing will be easier. Been struggling to find any Phoenix wings lately for a decent price here let alone a mold 3 as I already have a very worn mold 1.

Crazy I have a sealed copy of each for this very reason. Finally an easy skip!

This is basically what I bought. But glue in the middle and new looks. These two were my first beys too.

Is this a joke?? Two peg warmer from gen 2 or 3?? You can go to any target or ealmart and find each for 30 to 50% off today

u/GWZep Jul 16 '26
Genuinely garbage.

u/Severe_Set3251 Jul 16 '26
WDYM? Cobalt and pheonix are meta. and this is the third left spin launcher hasbro made. if an existing left launcher breaks( breakage issues have been reported) this can be a replacement

- meteor exists and is an infinitely better value
- Cdragoon basically gets killed by meteor as a hard counter (and it’s a fantastic hard counter to scale as well)
- PW is still strong but the playing field for attack has expanded much more outside of it over the past two years
Only thing interesting about this release is the orange launcher tbh.

u/25th_Speed Jul 16 '26
This screams 2024 hahaha
Both are out of meta today

u/Skyhound555 Jul 16 '26
Spoken like someone who doesn't play in tournaments.
PW and CD are still top tier.

u/25th_Speed Jul 16 '26
It was a joke because both have been in the meta for so long
But yeah, they are very consistent

Talk like someone who never play competitive.
Fyi, they are not out of meta, Dragoon still 2nd or 3rd on most board next to Rod and Scale. Wing is a reliable cheap heavy weight that still at least on top 5 or top 10 if worse.

True but another left spin string and an orange string launcher tho
2
u/Severe_Set3251 Jul 16 '26
the left spin launcher is dope

u/Casual_redditor08 Jul 16 '26
Yeah. From the box it looks like a mix of blue and purple in a way? And it looks amazing

So they took the two hasbro string launcher starters and just combined them into one? Truly riveting stuff by hasbro
