		+	Capricorne's design has two main elements related to a goat: at two opposite ends, there are some hooves with two toes each, and on the right of those start one set of two long, curved horns each. To avoid breaking issues, flat metal connects both horns at their end, but also with the side of the hoof. These precautions and the design create an overall very circular shape with some very simple slopes.
		+
		+	In theory, the roundness of this Wheel could make it a good [[Survival \| Stamina]] or [[Defense]] type, and the slopes could provide potential [[Upper Attack]], however Capricorne simply lacks all the weight necessary for those properties and its design has no acute points. Also, as is often the case with Wheels, the slopes are not really in the proper direction since Capricorne is only right-spin, and the hooves were oddly placed right at the base of the only good slopes in that spin direction, so they act like boulders. This average, too smooth transition in the relief of this Wheel has rendered it useless since its release, especially with the arrival of the much anticipated [[Metal_Fight_Beyblade#Hybrid_Wheel_System \| Hybrid Wheel System]] right the following month in Japan.

		+
		+	This Wheel is generally rounded with four textured fins protruding from its circumference, forming waves. Between these fins are empty semicircles used to prevent (early) breakage. Aquario, just like Wolf, has its protrusions facing the opposite way to its spin direction, presumably to avoid the massive Recoil that would be experienced if they had been facing the right direction. Since only the rounded parts of the protrusions can be used for Attack, its offensive potential is mediocre. The considerable space between each wave also prevents it from being efficient in Defense and Stamina, as it would need a more united, even rounder shape. At release, the fins of Aquario provided a decent amount of Smash Attack, but now it definitely does not compare to the existing top-tier Wheels, and many other Wheels from lower tiers even.
		+
		+	A second mold variation of the Aquario Wheel was introduced when this bey was re-released as a "PREMIUM RETURN" in BB-72 Booster Aquario 105F, in order to correspond with the "Beyblade Metal Fight Explosion", the second season of the anime. This new mold is slightly heavier compared to the first mold, but the effect this has on the Beyblade's performance is minimal to non-existent. The exact weight is 36.6 grams. This second mold also uses a darker colour of paint.

-Bull's Wheel was originally considered to be one of the most offensive MFB Wheels, yet it has been outclassed with the releases of Vulcan, Lightning and Gravity. Due to the wings on the Metal Wheel (similar to that of Quetzalcoatl), it is best utilized in the combo Bull T125RF as a Smash Attacker.
+The Bull Wheel consists of two long, sloped wings adjacent to each other, both ending in a point. Along with this, there are two half-circles on a slight incline in the space between the slopes, emulating the nose rings sometimes worn by bulls. Bull was originally considered to be one of the most offensive [[Metal Fight Beyblade | MFB]] Wheels, but was subsequently outclassed with the release of [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF | Quetzalcoatl]]. The design of Bull is similar to that of Quetzalcoatl. Despite this similarity, there is one key difference: the [[Smash Attack]] points. Both are visibly different, and this is the major factor contributing to the vast differences in their performance. Quetzalcoatl, but more so Bull, appear to have impressive [[Upper Attack]] slopes, but in reality, as with most MFB Wheels, they do not exhibit Upper Attack in battle. As a result of these factors, Bull is outclassed by numerous other Wheels.

 The L Drago Wheel is the first in the series of "L Drago"s, and was thus the first left-spin Wheel released. Its design consists of three dragon heads facing counter-clockwise. The heads are flat where the "snout" and teeth of the dragons are and taper in a slope-like form towards the "horn" and "neck" of the dragons, where the thickest part of the wheel is.
-The three dragon head slopes are in the shape required for Upper Attack, but given that for [[Upper Attack]] to work both Beyblades must be spinning in the same direction, the fact that there are very few left-spin MFB, and that Upper Attack has never seemed to be effective with MFB, makes this point negligible. Despite the fact that the Wheel has no sharp contact points, L Drago does indeed have some slight [[Smash Attack | Spike Attack]] through the small details and angle changes on the dragon heads, but overall it is outclassed as an [[Attack]] type Wheel. Where L Drago shines is in destabilizing; it's left-spin direction combined with huge slopes provide powerful destabilization against the opposing Beyblade.

The second mold addressed breaking problems that the original mold faced by reinforcing the underside of four sections of the Wheel (pictured to the left). The performance of each mold varies from Wheel to Wheel; some are slightly heavier than others, which would make them better suited for [[Defense]] customizations, while lighter ones would be more effective in [[Survival | Stamina]] customs, the difference however is negligible. If you have both molds, be sure to test them individually and determine which one is best for certain situations.

 Quetzalcoatl consists of two large wings which have a long slope upwards towards the top and then small curved slope downwards at the wings peak, along with two smaller protrusions on a slight incline in the gap between the wings. At first glance, the wings of Quetzalcoatl would appear to display both Upper Attack and also some slight Force Smash. Upon closer examination, however, it becomes clear that it displays neither of these traits in battle. In addition, the two protrusions between the wings do not protrude far enough to come into regular contact, and the Wheel itself is quite rounded, leaving it with only two major contact points and relatively moderate Smash Attack, when compared to Wheels such as Vulcan and Lightning that have since been released.
