Contents
Ultimate Dragoon was the first Beyblade to be released and was released in Japan in July 1999.
Name Variation
Hasbro released this product under the name Spin Dragoon.
Attack Ring (AR): Cross Dragon
- Weight: 4 grams
Cross Dragon is circular with four rectangular projections evenly distributed around the AR. Due to its shape and design; this AR has little use and is incredibly outclassed. It is not ideal for any form of attack. Cross Dragon does not have any competitive uses except for WD Attack, which is also not very useful in competitive play.
Use in WD Attack Customization
Cross Dragon in a WD Attack customization. Cross Dragon does not extend beyond the WD, leaving the WD completely exposed, therefore allowing this customization to be quite effective.
- AR: Cross Dragon (Ultimate Dragoon)
- WD: Wide Defense
- SG: Right SG
- BB: SG Metal Flat 2 (Gaia Dragoon V)
IMPORTANT: Mold Variations
There are two different molds for Cross Dragon. The original mold of Cross Dragon (Ultimate Dragoon and Megaro Arm version) is very thin and fragile (prone to breaking). The newer mold of Cross Dragon (Makendo version) is much improved from the original version, in that the AR is made thicker and the width of the AR is increased. In the newer mold of Cross Dragon, reinforments have been added to the ring and to the four panels. Due to these improvements, the newer mold AR is much stronger and less likely to break, compared to the original mold. Should Cross Dragon be used, the newer mold (Makendo's Cross Dragon) should be used over the original mold AR.
Note: The Hasbro versions of Ultimate Dragoon, Megaro Arm and Makendo all have the newer mold of Cross Dragon.

Overall
Ultimate Dragoon is useless for competitive play and has been entirely outclassed by numerous parts. This Beyblade would only be worth getting for collection purposes.
