CB-12 Torque Bearga

For those looking for a Power type B-Daman that really put Force in play.


CB-12 Torque Bearga
Torque Bearga is a Power Type B-Daman that puts Trigger Power as its main Force. Read on for more~

PlaKit Layout



Head Parts


Bearga's head parts are rounded in design and very much 'compact' in shape. Does not have any 'Targetting' assist due to its rounded top helm.

Arm Parts



The Arm grip if the Bearga is Huge! It is very wide to the sides and almost twice the area size of a normal Arm Grip (Comparison with CB-01 Accele Dracyan). Highly Recommended for B-Ders with a bigger hand size or wants more Grip Control over your B-Daman Shooter.

Leg Parts




The Leg Base of the Bearga is rather small when compared to its Huge Arm. The surface of the base is average, and mostly Frontal Balanced. This means the Magazine used is too heavy, the B-Daman will tilt over backwards.

Torque Core and Rear Safety Pack


The Torque Core is a very special Power Type Core. Though it might not seem so at first look. Heres the rundown.


The Trigger of the Torque Core is of same length as the Accele Core but has a long Curve Trigger Assist for better assess when firing a shot.


This design allows the B-Der to use two thumbs to Shoot, increasing in Power and Control over the B-Damarble.


The Torque Core is a twin B-Damarble grip system with a unique 'Three Way Force Compacting' arms.


With 2 main outer 'claws' and a center Hold Grip at the base, the Torque Core is able to compact force when launching a B-Damarble.


When B-Damarble is inside Core Chamber, it fits nicely in like any other Power Type Core with 2 grip points on the sides.


But when the B-Damarble is launch, it is Sharply Tapped by the Two main outer 'claws' just before it exits the barrel.

This Tapping Action of the 'claws' increases 'compressed' force to the B-Damarble. Complicating? Don't worry, here's the Science~

'Compact Force' Power Trial


To Further visualize the concept of what 'Compact Force' is, the CB-12 Torque Bearga will be compared to CB-01 Metal Accele Dracyan.


Three Blocks no, 1 and 3 being Yellow and no.2 being Red is set in front of B-Daman Shooter approximately 20cm away. The 2 B-Daman will take turn to fire at the Blocks and see the results.


Metal Accele Core fires at the Blocks, making a perfect and powerful Hit.


All the Blocks are pushed to the far side of the play area, due to its Accele drive force.


Accele Core's drive action, pushes All the blocks upon contact. The front spinning of the B-Damarble further drives the Force through to Blocks 2 and 3, pushing all blocks.


When Torque Core fires at the Blocks, in the pin point center...


Only Block 3 is blasted off to the far end of the area, while Block 1 and 2 remain minimally moved.


The 'Compact Force' caused by the 'Claws' of the Torque Core, Compacted the Generated Force of the Core to the Center of the B-Damarble. This pin point Force is transferred through the Blocks 1 and 2 delivering the Force all to Block 3, sending it Blasting off. 


This Momentum Kinetic Energy is great when in impact with an opponent competing on a Block Target. The Torque Core's shot will be able to deflect or neutralize the opponent shot even through a Block.

Summary



Looking like a Normal Power Type B-Daman, the CB-12 Torque Bearga packs a punch with its unique 'Compact Force' shots and is very highly recommended for Power Type users. The Huge Arm Parts are great for B-Ders with bigger hands and have very good Grip. A 8/10must get  for a Power Type B-Daman collector.

PlaKit Layout




Head Parts


The Head of the Orochi (Snake) is triangulated and has a singular sharp point on the top front of its helm. This design helps in aiming for long shots.

Arm Parts


The grip Arms are nicely curved and have a tapered shape to snugly fit your finger for great grip and stability.

Leg Part


The Base Stabilizer Legs are wide and stable. 


The outer sections of the Base Leg can be extended to further increase its stability.

Stroke Core and Rear Safety Support


The Stroke Core is a Control Type Core with a Special Trigger Guide connecting to its Trigger.


The Horizontal movement of the Trigger is restricted by the '-' section of the Trigger Guide.


And the Vertical movements of the Trigger are well positioned with the '|' section.


This 'T' shaped guide slot design ensures that the Trigger slides in the 'Center' of the Core.

 Body Design


The Orochi B-Daman body has 3 major Stabilizing points.


When the B-Der's fingers are rested receptively,  it gives a great overall control and stability.


The B-Der can comfortably use the thumb to shoot single handedly.

Accuracy/Control Trial




To test the Control and Accuracy of the Stroke Core. The Orochi B-Daman Shooter is positioned 30 centimeters away from a Stud approximately 0.7cm wide and 1cm tall, smaller than a B-Damarble.
A Trial of 5 times will be shot using One Hand only (as i am holding the camera with the other hand).



And after 5 shots, ALL 5 were a Hit! and 5/5 full score.
Not only the Stroke Orochi was accurate, it has great control over the B-Damarble even hitting a small target. Not mentioning using only one hand to aim and shoot. Its 'T' Trigger Guide really forces the Trigger to slot straight and not wobble of balance, making the shot extremely straight.

Summary


The CB-15 Stroke Orochi is a great Control Type B-Daman with outstanding Stability, Accuracy and Control. Its body design has a good comfortable grip and Base area is just nice for a Stable Support. Stroke Orochi is highly recommended for Control B-ders out there who are looking for Accuracy and Control.

CB-44 System Magazine

Got a few messages from fellow B-Der asking about the 'Orange Magazine' i was using during the recent events. So i decided to do a FFW review on it~


CB-44 System Magazine


Comes with a B-Damarble loader attachment part and two expansion attachments.
The Tune Up Part System Mag is a expandable tier magazine with very low 'Jamming' ratio. The reason for its no jam system is the 'Zig Zag - Single Column' design.


In the above image, you can see that All the loaded marbles do not get mixed around but gets fed into the Magazine 'Systematically' in a Zig Zag pattern. This way the B-Damarbles are 'lined-up' and due to its slightly sloped interior of each Expansion Section, the B-Damarbles are able to move downwards smoothly. (Reminder: Do note that for efficient load, the B-Daman Shooter have to be Leveled to the Base. Tilting and Jerking motions will cause the System Mag to not function favorably.)


The streamline magazine design sits only a B-Damarble on each load, forcing a single load queue system and no 2 B-Damarbles will load at the same time.


A 2 Tier System Magazine (System 3) can hold 12 B-Damarbles making it perfect for Break Bomber Battles.


Important: The Maximum tiers allow in an Official B-Da Battle is 6 (or System 7). Note that the B-Damarble Loader Attachment is counted as 1 tier. So a System 7 represents 1 Loader + 6 Expansion Attachments = 7.



The Parallel design of the Magazine ensures minimal visual blockage.


It also improves 'Side Loading' from a straight position.


The 'Edge' of the System Magazine can also be used as a Targeting Pointer to assist in generic targeting.

Summary


Overall, CB-44 System Magazine is highly recommended for its low jamming ratio, functionality usage in B-Battles and also its customization capabilities.A great Tune Up part for your B-Daman Shooter~
