Archer Griffin C145S

Archer Gryph C145S is the name for a Balance-type Beyblade under the toyline, Metal Fight Beyblade Zero-G by Takara Tomy. Its product number is BBG-12 and was released as a Synchrom Booster on June 23rd, 2012. It is sold for approximately ¥893.

Metal Stone Face: Gryph
The Metal Stone Face Gryph depicts the head of a "Griffin" coloured in blue and gold, above its wing wing with tattered feathers. It resembles the Eagle motif.

Chrome Wheel: Gryph
Similar to the Leone Wheel, Gryph consists of eight distinct sections. Four of them have spikes curved in a right-spin direction, and the other half of the sections mostly constitutes of straight boulders. One of the latter sections is however in the shape of an eagle head, with the orb from the Crystal Wheel showing right at the left border of the head.

Crystal Wheel: Archer
Archer has large curves from a bow protruding around one half of its circumference, with some fancy string details engraved in the rest of the design, notably where the crystal is located.

Attack: 4 - Defense: 3 - Stamina: 0

Spin Track: Claw 145 (C145)

 * Weight: 3.2 grams

C145 is a unique Track that has the claws on it to strike opponents underneath. The claws point straight out in battle due to the spin, and stay that way through the rest of the battle. Transcendent purple with checkered stickers, this Track helps to provide the Bey with good Defense. A low attacker like Screw Capricorne 90MF can attack the C145 track when used with the Flame Fusion Wheel. It will make the Bey lose its Balance easily. This track was first used with Flame Sagittario C145S.

Attack: 0 - Defense: 2 - Stamina: 2

Performance Tip: Sharp/Spike (S)

 * Weight: 0.6 grams

The Sharp Bottom offers very little movement and as such provides no Attack potential. The pointed Tip allows for very little friction between the Bottom and the stadium surface, which helps prevent the loss of spin velocity. However, due to the fine nature of the Tip, the bottom is easily knocked off balance, and hence is outclassed by superior alternatives such as WD/SD/D/EWD/SWD. This Tip is outclassed and deemed pathetic among Stamina types. It is not as powerful as an ES, BS or any other Stamina type Performance Tips. Because of its poor balance, when used with C145, the Track usually touches the floor when hit with a strong Attack which will cause it to lose Stamina and Balance.

Attack: 1 - Defense: 4 - Stamina: 2

Beast
Archer Gryph's beast is a purple Gryphon with a spear above its back.

Trivia

 * Archer Gryph is the second Beyblade to have been released with the C145S combo. The first being Flame Sagittario C145S three years prior.
 * Archer Gryph was previously believed to have the "Shinobi" Crystal Wheel after post Kai-V published on the WBO. However, it was later proven that, during the prototype stages of the Bey, it did indeed have the Shinobi wheel and was changed at an unknown point.
 * If a rev up launcher is used at its full power Archer Gryph will have perfect balance for a period of time that is long enough to knock opponents out of the stadium. During that time, it can also circle around the stadium at moderate speeds.
 * Archer Gryph has yet to use the claws on its C145 Spin Track in the anime.

Origin
The bey is based on the Griffin, a mythical creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle. An archer is a person who uses a bow and arrow, a practitioner of archery.
