Thunder or Infinity (インフィニティ, Infiniti) is a Fusion Wheel released by Takara Tomy as part of the Hybrid Wheel System. It debuted in Japan with the Infinity Libra GB145S Bey Point Card prize, and in western countries with the release of the BB-18 Legend Starter Pack Thunder Libra DF145BS.
Description
Thunder is meant to be a Fusion Wheel version of the Metal System Libra Wheel. It features a similar round design, with small indents to form the shape of scales. Its usage however is limited; in Defense Type combos, it is outclassed by thicker Fusion Wheels with the same shape, such as Twisted, and heavier Fusion Wheels such as Duo. Due to its round shape, Thunder has no Attack potential whatsoever, and even its Metal System predecessor Libra, is more useful for Stamina Type combinations.
Overall
Due to it's light weight, Thunder is heavily outclassed by other Fusion wheels in competitive format.
As such, Thunder is recommended for collection purposes only.
