Revision as of 14:14, 30 September 2017
Spin Dragoon known in Japan as Ultimate Dragoon is a Left-Spin Attack-type Beyblade and the first to use the 4 Layer System. It is the first Dragoon Beyblade and is succeeded by Dragoon Grip Attacker. It is owned by Tyson Granger.
It appears in the first Beyblade manga and briefly in the anime series, Beyblade: G-Revolution.
It was released with a blue Left-Spin EZ Shooter and a blue Winder by Takara as a Starter Set in Japan on July 1999 for 680円. It was later released internationally by Hasbro sometime in 2002. It is the first Beyblade and Beyblade product that was ever released.
Character Tip: Ultimate Dragoon
Ultimate Dragoon is both the first Character Tip and the first Character Tip for a Dragoon Blade. The sticker depicts Ultimate Dragoon, a muscular, dark red dragon with a few black highlights, white claws, sharp, flame-like wings and the power to conduct fire from its hands. It is placed over a red background sealed within a yellow border and a black ring.
Attack Ring: Cross Dragon
- Weight: 4 grams
- Attack: 2/4
- Defense: 1/4
- Endurance: 2/4
Cross Dragon is the first Attack Ring ever released and the first for a Dragoon Beyblade. Mostly a circular piece, this white Attack Ring has four protruding spikes with a large amount of space between them, and they are arranged in a cross-like format, hence its name. Each spike is designed to resemble a dragon's head with three horns and a long, rectangular curved snout.
Cross Dragon uses four, dark red stickers shaped like thin, curved lines. They are placed within the space between each of the Attack Ring's spikes.
Weight Disk: Wide
- Weight: 13 grams
- Attack: 1/4
- Defense: 1/4
- Endurance: 3/4
Wide is both the first Weight Disk ever released and the first Wide Weight Disk. As its name suggests, this Weight Disk is very wide, using six sides forming a hexagonal shape. It is also the Wide Weight Disk with the least amount of sides, compared to its later successors, Eight Wide and Ten Wide.
Blade Base: Flat
- Weight: 8 grams
- Attack: 3/4
- Defense: 2/4
- Endurance: 1/4
Flat is the first Blade Base ever released. Its gimmick lies within its namesake: a circular, flat tip which causes the Blade to move at wide and fast speeds, which are ideal for Attack-Types. Despite this, the flat tip is made of plastic, which consequently provides weak grip to the Beystadium surface, unlike with those made of stronger material, like rubber. However, plastic bottoms offer longer endurance and spin time than rubber ones. It is a white Blade Base.
Manga
Beyblade
Spin Dragoon plays a major part in the manga, being Tyson's first Beyblade.
Tyson is given the Bit-Beast, Dragoon, as part of a test made by Jin of The Gale and it enters Tyson's Blade. He then uses it to defeat Carlos and the remaining Blade Sharks. However, Spin Dragoon gets destroyed.
Despite this, the Bit-Beast of Spin Dragoon survived and Jin gives it back to him, allowing Tyson to keep it. Tyson then lets Dragoon inside his new Beyblade: the successor of Spin Dragoon, Dragoon Grip Attacker.
Anime
Beyblade: G-Revolution
Spin Dragoon is shown during the Hard Metal System arc, being owned by Tyson when he was younger.

Trivia
- The back side of the Takara packaging incorrectly romanizes "Blade Base" as "BULADE BASE".
- Unlike its Hasbro variant, Ultimate Dragoon does not have an official Type because Beyblade Type names were not created yet, as evident by the lack of any "Attack-Type" wording anywhere on the Takara packaging.
