Fang Leone 130W2D

Template:Infobox:HWSFang Leone 130W²D is a Defense-Type Beyblade that appears in the anime and manga series, Beyblade: Metal Fury. It is owned by Kyoya Tategami and is the evolved form of Rock Leone 145WB. It was released on March 26, 2011 in Japan. Hasbro's Fang Leone 130W2D has a white printed Face Bolt and a Dark Lime Green Clear Wheel.

Fang Leone features a mode-changing gimmick of its wheel, and it can be arranged by flipping the Metal Frame, to change it to two unique modes, Defense Mode and Counter-Attack Mode. It also contains W2D Bottom, which can be used for counter-attack and Defense.

Face Bolt: Leone II

Leone's face bolt.

The Face on this Beyblade depicts Leo Minor, one of the 88 constellations. Unlike the previous Leone motif, the words LEO are removed and are replaced by Leo's paw with a white star on it. Leo also appears to be looking upwards and is roaring as well. The Hasbro version is completely green, and printed face.

Energy Ring: Leone II

• Weight: 3.0 grams

Leone II resembles the original Leone Energy Ring with armor-like designs surrounding it. However, there is a trapezium-like design with squares and a screw-like design on top of it and the Energy Ring appears to be slightly more sturdier and bulkier. It is considered a 4D Energy Ring, due to the fact it has metal fillings inside. However, despite the metal fillings, it still weighs exactly the same as the previous Leone Energy Ring, thus its performance is exactly the same. It is green in color.

Attack: 2 - Defense: 5 - Stamina: 0

Fusion Wheel: Fang

• Total Weight: 39.2 grams

Overview

The Fang Fusion Wheel consists of six protrusions which have alternate widths; one being wide and the other being short. This design resembles Fang's predecessors, Leone and Rock. Since Fang has high recoil in both modes, it has little use in Defense customisations. This is countered by its prominent Attack power from its shape and its considerable weight.

Fang Leone has two modes, Defense Mode and Counter Mode. Fang can switch between these two simply by flipping the Fang Metal Frame over. In Defense Mode, the hollow side of the Metal Frame faces downwards and is not visible from above. In Counter Mode, the hollow side faces down. Out of the two, Counter Mode is the most useful since it allows Smash Attack. The Hasbro version cannot switch modes, and remains in the default mode, Defense mode.

Metal Frame

• Weight: 20.5 grams

The Fang Metal Frame has three mane-like protrusions. These mane-like protrusions act as defensive walls for Fang Leone. In between these three protrusions are holes that are supposed to be for the Fang Core.

Core

• Weight: 18.7 grams

The Fang Core has three protrusions. It looks like the Big Bang Core, however, the three protrusions are more sturdy and defensive than it.

Attack: 2 - Defense: 2 - Stamina: 1

Spin Track: 130

130 is rare Spin Track of high height. The only other tracks with a height of 130 are Shield 130 (S130) and Wing Attack 130 (WA130). It is pearl white in color. It is reasonable for Attack customizations, but outclassed by lower spin tracks like CH120 and 85.

Performance Tip: Wave Wide Defense (W2D)

• Weight: 0.7 grams

Wave Wide Defense is an upgrade of Wide Defense (WD). It has a flat surface and a spike at the center. Despite being an upgrade, it has far worse Balance than WD. However, the beyblade can use the flat surface to counter-attack. After some time, the spike will wear out, thus making the tip a lot more aggressive. This tip is very good in Balance type customisations for its Defense and Stamina. It is pearl white in color.

Attack: 1 - Defense: 2 - Stamina: 4

Trivia

• Fang Leone is one of the few 4D Beys to be almost completely untouched by Hasbro, next to Scythe Kronos T125EDS. The Hasbro version won't be able to change modes, and has a slightly different color Energy Ring.
• The Fang Leone motif is on the Beyblade XTS Graffiti Den Stadium. This is strange, since the stadium debuted before Metal Fury was released by Hasbro.
• Fang Leone is the first 4D Beyblade that doesn't have a 4D bottom.
• Fang Leone is the first Beyblade to have the combo 130W²D.
• Fang Leone can become more balanced when using a shorter Spin Track such as 125 or you can increase its stamina and balance by changing its performance tip to SWD.
