Horusood H2, known in Japan as Holy Horusood (ホーリーホルスード, Hōrī Horusūdo), is an Energy Layer released as part of the Burst System as well as the Dual Layer System. It debuted with the release of the B-44 Booster Holy Horusood Upper Claw on May 28th, 2016.
Description
Horusood H2 is a stamina type Energy Layer that features a bird with the Eye of Horus in the center and four feathered blades that make up the bird's wings, two of which consist of clear plastic and two of which consist of colored plastic that are waved, meant to represent the Layer's namesake; Horus the falcon headed Egyptian god.
Like Wyvron W2, Horusood H2 seems round at first glance, but upon closer inspection is actually square in shape. Each of the corners of this square shape and the waves of the two colored blades create points of recoil making it unsuitable for stamina, while the waves allow for some degree of destabilization, the feathered design makes them too rough to be suited for such a purpose. The Takara Tomy release of Holy Horusood features four teeth, the first short in length, the last three are medium-short in length, as such Horusood H2 is prone to Bursts as the teeth are unable to reliably withstand the recoil of the Layer.
Overall
Holy Horusood suffers from a recoil producing design and average teeth unable to reliably withstand the recoil. While the waved design can produce some destabilization, they too are unreliable for such a purpose.
As such, Holy Horusood is suitable only for collection purposes.
Differences in the Hasbro Version
Hasbro's release of Horusood H2 is virtually unchanged from its Takara Tomy counterpart with the same recoil inducing shape and only moderate Burst resistance.
As such, Horusood H2 is suitable only for collection purposes only.
