TAKARA TOMY BEYBLADE BURST TURBO PRO

TAKARA TOMY BEYBLADE BURST TURBO PRO

Hasbro's Pro Series Cho-Z Achilles is virtually unchanged from Takara Tomy's Cho-Z Achilles.

Unlike previous Cho-Z Layers and like other Layers with the 'Cho-Z' prefix, Cho-Z Achilles is incompatible with a Level Chip. Due to this, it is recommended to have multiple copies of this Layer and to be prepared to replace it. However, Cho-Z Achilles' points of contact will wear down fairly quickly with use, drastically reducing the Layer's Attack potential. Furthermore, due to the small size of the 'Cho-Z Wings' and how recessed they are normally, Cho-Z Achilles shows identical Attack potential whether or not the gimmick is activated, unlike Cho-Z Valkyrie. Due to these factors and the shape of the blades, Cho-Z Achilles performs well in Attack Combinations. The Layer's size and the inclusion of metal makes Cho-Z Achilles heavier than most God Layers, improving Attack Potential by increasing the weight of the Layer, granting higher inertia that increases both Knock-Out and Burst Attack and increasing the Layer's Burst Resistance as the high inertia resists teeth skipping, a property that compliments the tall teeth of Cho-Z Achilles. However, due to the bistable mechanism, Cho-Z Achilles requires rather extreme spin speeds for the gimmick to activate which may be difficult for younger bladers. Only two of Cho-Z Achilles' 'Cho-Z Wings' will move the tabs, as well as the remaining two 'Cho-Z Wings'.

Due to the bistable mechanism the wings and tabs do not retract when spin speeds are low and must be manually pushed in after every match to allow the gimmick to work as intended. The Burst Stoppers then obstruct the Disc, hindering the last click and preventing the Cho-Z Achilles Combination from Bursting. Cho-Z Achilles also features a gimmick the Layer features an anti-Bursting mechanism called the 'Cho-Z Awakening System'.Īt high spin velocity, the centrifugal force activates a bistable mechanism, revealing sub wings called the 'Cho-Z Wings' and in turn extending tabs called 'Burst Stoppers' in the grooves meant to fit the prongs of the Disc. As part of the Cho-Z Layer System, Cho-Z Achilles features metal in its design in this case, concentrated on the sword blades.

The perimeter is made up of four large blades as the primary points of contact, two of which are molded in the shape of swords, granting the Layer high Knock-Out and Burst Attack potential. The center features a shield and an armored face facing forward, unlike its predecessor where the face was seen from a side profile, meant to represent the Layer's namesake, the Greek hero Achilles.
