Virgo (ビルゴ, Birugo) is a Wheel released by Takara Tomy as part of the Metal System. It debuted in Japan with the release of the BB-22 Booster Virgo DF145BS on November 20th, 2008.
Description[]
Virgo is one of the most smooth, circular Wheels currently available. Its circular shape is composed of two large, and long slopes which connect with each other to form the circle; however, despite their appearance, they don't offer any effective Upper Attack. These properties lend themselves well to Stamina, and despite its relatively average weight in comparison to other Wheels, Virgo had once found its place among the best Stamina-based Wheels available. However, it has since been outclassed greatly. There is no reason to use this Wheel competitively.
One very important thing to note is the different mold variations that have been discovered for Virgo. It has been determined that there is balance issues that certain Virgo Wheels encounter through testing. Some of them have been reported not having a spin time above three minutes while others are able to spin for over five minutes. The disparities between the Virgo Wheels cannot be ignored, so it is encouraged to test your Virgo Wheel by itself before using it.
Overall[]
Virgo has decent Stamina qualities that are on par with Earth and Libra, top tier stamina parts in the WBO's Limited Format. Thus, Virgo is a welcome addition if the Blader plans to compete in the WBO's Limited Format, where many of the parts that marginalize it are restricted.
As such, Virgo is not a must have but is instead a welcome addition to a blader's collection.

Trivia[]
- The Virgo Wheel, along with Libra, Pisces, and Aries, were the most expensive Metal System parts, as Virgo was only available in the Bey Custom Set Stamina & Defense Type or Random Booster Vol. 2 Legend Pisces. Following the release of the Hong Kong exclusive 4 Layers Special Edition Set, the price went down substantially.
