__TOC__

'''''Note:''' Earth Virgo GB145BS was originally released as the "Rare" Beyblade in [[Random Booster Vol.4 Mirage Virgo]]. It has since become more easily obtainable in the Starter version released by SonoKong.''

==Face: Virgo==
The Face depicts Virgo, the sixth astrological sign of the Zodiac.
 
==Clear Wheel: Virgo==
*'''Weight:''' 2.8 grams
Virgo was first released in a translucent yellow colour. Virgo has a smooth, flowing design to emulate a woman's hair, and features a small notch on both sides.

==Metal Wheel: Earth==
*'''Weight:''' 33.1 grams
Earth has four thick, textured wings surrounding its perimeter, with each pair facing each other on a slight incline. The space created between the wings is quite small, and the resulting effect is the same of any Wheel that has no spaces, low recoil. Its smooth, circular design and low recoil make it one of the best, if not the best, [[Defense]]-oriented wheel currently available for competitive play. Earth Virgo GB145BS comes with the second mold of Earth.

===IMPORTANT: Mold Variations===
[[Image:10EarthAquila.JPG|thumb|Earth Metal Wheel (second mold)]]
Earth has two different molds. The first mold was released in BB-47 Starter Earth Aquila 145WD, and the second in both the purple WBBA "Event Special" MF Earth Aquila 105HF/S, and SonoKong manufactured Earth Metal Wheels. However, TAKARA-TOMY has since ceased production on the first mold, thus making it a difficult part to obtain. The second mold addressed breaking problems that the original mold faced by modifying the inside of each of Earth's wings. The new mold is up to three grams heavier than the old mold (30-31 grams versus 33 grams on the new mold), which makes it significantly more effective for [[Defense]] customizations. Therefore, the new mold is the preferred choice for Defense customs using Earth, while the original mold would be the best for [[Survival | Stamina]].

===Use in Defense Customization===
Earth can be utilized in the [[Defense]] customization, ''MF Earth Bull GB145WB''.

===Use in Stamina Customization===
Earth also has exceptional [[Survival | Stamina]] capabilities and can be utilized in the Stamina custom ''Earth Bull DF145SD''. 

==Track: Gravity Bowl 145==
*'''Weight:''' 4.5 grams
GB145 is a wide, round Track featuring two free moving metal balls. These balls move toward the outside of the Track while spinning, causing additional spin retaining force, similar to [[Draciel Metal Ball Defenser]]'s Metal Ball Base from the [[Plastic Beyblade | plastic generation]]. Weighing in at 4.5 grams, GB145 is currently the second heaviest Track available, and as such is extremely useful in [[Defense]] customizations. However, because it lacks energy-absorbing free spinning wings, it is not as effective as [[Flame Sagittario C145S | C145]] against low attackers such as [[Quetzalcoatl 90WF | Quetzalcoatl]] 90RF. 

Where GB145 does shine is when it is utilized in Defense customizations against high CH120-based Attackers, such as MF [[Lightning L Drago 100HF | Lightning L Drago]] CH120RF. These types of Attackers do not aim to hit the Track, and thus the free spinning wings of C145 are not necessary, and you instead get a significant increase in the overall weight of the customization.

===Use in Defense Customization===
GB145 can be utilized in the [[Defense]] customization ''MF Earth Aquario GB145WB''. The Bull wheel may also be used as a subsitute if Aquario is unavaliable.

==Bottom: Ball Sharp==
*'''Weight:''' 1 gram
BS offers very little movement and provides no [[Attack]] potential. The pointed tip allows for very little friction between the Bottom and the stadium surface, which helps prevent the loss of [[spin velocity]]. BS has decent [[Survival | Stamina]], but it experiences the balance issues that the S series bottoms share because its tip is so fine. D, WD and SD are better choices.
===Use in Stamina Customization===
If access to D, WD or SD is not available, BS can be used to some degree of effectiveness in [[Survival | Stamina]] customs such as ''Burn Bull DF145BS''.

==Other Versions==
*'''Earth Virgo T125ES''' - Beyblade Deck Entry Set (Red)

==Overall==
'''Earth Virgo GB145BS''' has many positive attributes. Earth is a wheel with great [[Defense]] and [[Survival | Stamina]], and GB145 is an extremely useful Track for Defense. While BS leaves much to be desired, Earth and GB145 more than make up for it. '''Every Blader should own at least one of this Beyblade'''.
