Since Hasbro is being absolute shit right now, I’m gonna make a list of every gimmick they removed from Burst beys. I could go into plastic gen (bearings on Zeus, metal core on Metal Driger), and mfb (everything that made the 4d system a separate system from hybrid wheels), but I’m gonna stick to Burst to not make this list so long

Wild Wyvern: Using Massive (fixed ball) instead of Orbit (free spinning ball)

Yeager Yggdrasill: Using Survive (regular plastic) instead of Yielding (POM)

Galaxy Zeus: No metal balls

Strike God Valkyrie: no metal on the chip, no bound deactivation, and no Ultimate Reboot

Twin Nemesis: Using the 2 disc instead of 3 and the Hit frame. I can excuse Jaggy since it’s the anime combo, but that same anime clearly shows 3Hit

Screw Trident: no rubber defense

Most of Cho-Z: no metal on the layer

The rest of Cho-Z: less metal than TT

Z Achilles: removed Xtend’s height change, and the entirety of Xtend+

Crash Ragnaruk: no stamina wings

Archer Hercules, Revive Phoenix, and Air Knight: no POM drivers

Bloody Longinus: Changing the shape of Jolt into basically Xtreme

Geist Fafnir: no rubber

Orb Egis: no suction cup

All of GT: no layer weights

Ace/ Grand/ Rock Dragon: no bound on Sting or metal on Charge

Slash Valkyrie: no wings on Blitz or spring on Power

Bushin Ashura: no free spin on Hurricane or rubber on Keep

Wizard Fafnir: no rubber or semi free spin on Ratchet

Judgement Joker: no rubber blades or burst stopper on Judgement, no frame, and no mode change on Trick

Zwei Longinus: no metal

Venom/ Erase Diabolos: no metal on the chip, no dual spin chip (you had to buy left and right spin versions separately), no plastic frame on Vanguard, no projectile on Bullet

Flare base: no metal balls (also no balls for Around)

Poison base: no rubber

Heaven Pegasus: no burst recovery wings, no frame, no metal on Low

Lord Spriggan: no rubber or burst stopper on Lord, no wings on Blitz, no mode change or rubber on Dimension’

Dread Bahamut: no burst stopper, no changing shape on Dread, no frame, no metal o Orbit Metal

Union Achilles: no mode changes on Convert or Xtend+

Tact base: no changing contact points depending on the weight (which was entirely removed)

Knockout Odin: no metal on Knockout or burst stopper

Prime Apocalypse: no metal or infinite lock on the layer, no frame, no way to attach the Big Bang armor, no Ultimate Reboot’

Regalia Genesis: no metal, infinite lock, no Big Bang armor, or electric driver

Imperial Dragon: no metal, rubber, or bound on the layer base. No electric driver

Master Diabolos: no dual spin at all, no metal on the layer, no automatic mode change on Generate

Naked base: no Paradox disc

Big Bang Genesis: no infinite lock, metal on the layer, removable Big Bang armor, or metal on Yard Metal

All of Sparking: no chassis (they did discs that look like chassis), chip core, or limit break (both rings and discs)

Super Hyperion: no rubber or free spin on Xceed

King Helios: no mode change on the chassis or free spin on Zone

Glide Ragnaruk: The Wheel disc is made much lighter

Brave Valkyrie: no rubber on the ring, and no chassis disc (they gave it Aero’)

Curse Satan: no free spin on Hurricane

Mirage Fafnir: no spring on Nothing, no 2S chassis (they gave it 1A)

Rage Longinus: no metal on the ring, and the tiny disc (that moves because of how the bursting mechanism works) defeats the entire purpose of the chassis

Variant Lucifer: no metal on the chip, no rubber barrier on the chassis, and no POM on Mobius

Death Diabolos: no dual spin or metal on the chip, and no rubber on Merge’

Abyss Diabolos: no dual spin or metal on the chip

Tempest Dragon: no awakening or rainbows. Also they gave it Armed instead of the 1A disc

World Spriggan: no metal on the chip, no flipping on the ring (they did the dual spin like Lord instead of Master, when World’s contact points were not designed to suit a Lord-style dual spin), no burst stopping counter blades, no mode changing or free spinning 2B chassis (they gave it Limited), or rubber on Unite’

Infinite Achilles: no Infinite Sword/ Infinite Shield attachments, and by extension no attack/ defense/ stamina mode changes. Also no rubber or mode changes on Dimension’

Hyperion Burn: no metal on the chip, no limit break ability, no Cho disc (they gave it 6), no rubber or metal on Xceed’+X

Helios Volcano: no metal on the chip, no limit break ability, no Ou disc (they gave it Outer), no metal or free spin on Zone’+Z

Lucifer The End: no metal or rubber burst stopper on the chip, no limit break ability, no Kou disc (they have it Vertical), no POM or free spin on Drift

Hollow Deathscyther: no metal on the ring, no mode change with the chassis, no frame, no High Accel’ (they gave it Xceed-SP)

Jet Wyvern: no rubber on the ring, no Around disc (they have it Central), no Just driver (they gave it Needling-SP)

Death Solomon: never released by Hasbro at all despite being in the anime (yes it’s in the season after its system debuted, but so was Screw Trident)

All of DB/ BU: no metal on the (entirely metal) armors, all the discs are much lighter than in TT, and no BU locks for cores and discs that have them

Dynamite Belial: no rubber on Venture, no F Gear (rubber on the blade), no V Gear (metal on the driver), no S Gear (mode changing free spinning disc), no L Gear (more metal on the layer)

Cyclone Ragnaruk: no stamina wings, no POM or free spin on Never

Vanish Fafnir: no rubber on Vanish (and by extension no varying levels of shock absorption based on mode changes), no free spin or spring on Kick

Roar Bahamut: no rubber burst stopper, no changing shape, no free spin or swivel on Moment (they kept the slope gimmick I guess)

Savior Valkyrie: no bound on the core, no rubber or awakening on the blade, no jumping Shot driver

Astral Spriggan: no dual spin on the core, no rubber or metal on the blade, no flipping blade (same as World but worse), no metal or rubber or mode changes on Quattro

Guilty Longinus: no metal on the core, no metal on the blade, no free spin on Metal Destroy

Dangerous Belial: no burst stopper on the core, no rubber on the blade, no bound on the disc, no free spinning mode changing POM driver, no F Gear, no V Gear, no S Gear, no L Gear

Prominence Phoenix: no Prominence Shield (and by extension no mode change related to the orientation of the shield), no free spin on Metal Universe (x2 because Universe has 2 separate free spinning parts)

Greatest Raphael: no halo gimmick, no metal on the layer, no burst stopper, no mode changes on High Xtend+’

Ultimate Valkyrie: no rubber on the blade, no Legacy disc (they gave it Karma), no Variable’ (they gave it QD’s Hunter, which unlike TT’s Hunter, doesn’t have rubber)

Divine Belial: no burst stopper on the core, no metal on the blade, no Nexus disc (they gave it the Shot disc), probably no rubber or springs on Adventure (though we need to wait for more info), probably no F, V, S, or L gears, and probably no D (90-degree free spin disc), A (mode changing blade), H (more weight and a burst stopper), or VS (metal and free spin on the driver) gears

Chain Kerbeus: no rubber burst stopper on the core, no expanding/ retracting chains on the blade (and by extension no Tact-like mode changes for when the chains are fixed), no Fortress disc (they gave it Aquilon), probably no free spin on Yard’

Gatling Dragon: no bound on the core, no awakening on the blade, no rainbows, no metal on Charge Metal’

Xiphoid Xcalibur: no metal or expanding sword on the core, no metal on the blade, no plastic frame surrounding Xanthus, no metal on Sword’

Zest Achilles: no dual spin on the core, no dual spin on the blade, no Zest Swords (and thus no attack/ defense/ stamina modes on the blade), no 4 armor (they used 10), no Illegal disc (they used Giga), no rubber or metal or mode changes on Quattro’

Whether you are traveling for business or pleasure, a suitcase is a must when packing for a trip. A suitcase allows you to neatly store all of your items in one zippered bag that can easily be transported during your travels. The most popular brands of luggage include: American Tourister, Delsey, Olympia, Samsonite, and Travelpro. You’ll find that the biggest advantage of any suitcase is that they usually have wheels so you can roll or push it instead of carrying a bunch of bags with you when you travel.

When selecting a suitcase, there are three main styles. These include hard side, soft side, and duffels. Some people prefer hard side suitcases when traveling because they may better protect the contents in the bag from rough handling at the airport when your bag is being loaded on the plane. The most common type would be the soft side suitcase. The benefit of a soft side suitcase is that it gives more convenience when trying to zip an over-stuffed bag. Some even have a built in expander that will give you an extra few inches of packing space if come home with more than you took. Duffel bags are not as structured as hard or soft side suitcases but they provide tons of space for packing many items or odd shaped things. They work well when trying to cram a lot of luggage in your car for a family vacation.

Where to Purchase a Suitcase?

Traveling can be expensive and you don’t want to waste your money on the suitcase. Save your money for dining and fun experiences while you travel by buying a cheap, reliable suitcase. These can be found online through Amazon, at department stores like Kohls or TJ Maxx, or at box stores like Walmart or Target. Your suitcase doesn’t need to have a bunch of extras as long as it safely holds all of your belongings and is easy to take with you.

What to Check For Before Buying a Suitcase

Before buying a suitcase, check the dimensions, weight, material it is made from, type of wheels, and its storage options. Which of these features are important to you will vary depending on what you are packing and where you are traveling. Different travel needs determine the type of suitcase you may want. For example, airlines have size limits for carry-on bags that will be stowed overhead. If you wish to carry-on your luggage, check with your airline to find their requirements. Usually, small suitcases around 22″ will fit but it is always a good idea to confirm this before traveling.

Also, if you are planning to fly and check your luggage, airlines usually have weight limitations on each suitcase. Usually this limitation is 50 pounds, so you will want a light weight suitcase allowing your belongings to take up most of that weight. Again it is always best to confirm the weight limitations before you get to the airport so that you don’t get hit with an extra fee for an overweight bag.

The following suitcases are 10 of the best available:

Saying "farewell" to my old car and "hello" to its successor (2011 Nissan Sentra to 2019 Nissan Sentra) via /r/cars

Saying "farewell" to my old car and "hello" to its successor (2011 Nissan Sentra to 2019 Nissan Sentra)

AutoMod got a bit spooked by this post the first time I posted it, so let's try it again!

Tl;dr: Got an economy car, got attached to it, lost it in an accident, bought a newer one.

As a middle schooler, it was video games that got me into cars (Midnight Club 3, NFS Most Wanted, etc.). My friends and I were all convinced back then that the greatest things on wheels were high-horsepower speed machines; anything else was just a stupid appliance.

A decade-and-change later, enter my stupid appliance: a 2011 B16 Nissan Sentra that I got in 2013 from a relative. It was a base model with zero options, it had dents and scratches all over, and it was missing its sideview mirrors; scars from its early days in bumper-to-bumper New York City traffic. But, it only had 32,000 miles, so it was perfect for getting me through college.

Generally speaking, the Sentra is completely unremarkable. Not bad, but not amazing, either. Like a forty-something office drone who hit their peak during a P.E. dodgeball game in the 10th grade, the Sentra showed great potential early on and immediately afterwards, settled for just being "good enough." I didn't even learn about the B13 SE-R and how amazing that was until a couple of years ago.

And yet, from the moment I first sat behind the wheel, my B16 really clicked with me. It was dead-reliable and never left me stranded, it got great gas mileage for the 40-mile round trip I made to and from campus every day, I could cram 4 passengers and their luggage into it and drive cross-country with no issues, and the 6-speed manual made it pretty fun for Sunday drives down my local backroads. Not bad for a vehicle that looked like a loaf of bread smeared in grey paint. To that end, I affectionately nicknamed it "Breadloaf."

I'd originally planned to sell Breadloaf after a couple of years, but I wound up keeping it for 6. During that time, the most trouble it gave me was a random misfire that took a year and a half to properly diagnose and fix (turned out the spark plugs, spark plug leads, and injectors all went bad). In early 2019, I decided I was going to keep the car forever and just replace components as they got old and faulty. If anything was ever going to stop me driving this car, it would have to be an eighteen wheeler, or something.

So last month, I got hit by an eighteen wheeler.

It doesn't look very bad, but the impact totalled the car. One moment, I'm driving to work, and the next, I'm climbing across the seats to get out because the driver's side has been completely smashed in. 6 years of ownership and 117k miles, and Breadloaf was ready to do it twice over. It wasn't until my car was loaded onto a flatbed and taken to parts unknown that it really sank in — my stupid appliance is gone.

I spent a couple of weeks looking for a new car. I scanned the whole crop of compact and subcompact cars, all with manual transmissions. Hyundai Elantras were very enticing, but the looks turned me off. Kia Fortes looked great and had an awesome warranty, but I was frustrated by the manual base model not coming with fold down rear seats (automakers, please just make that standard across the board). Honda Civics and Mazda 3s were wonderful to drive, but just out of a comfortable price range. My coworker's ongoing battle with Chevy over warranty repairs turned me away from getting a Cruze, and the Ford Focus is dead in the U.S. I even considered a Mitsubishi Mirage for a couple of hours, but my lifestyle is too big for that car.

Faced with either getting another Nissan or a Toyota Corolla, I concluded that I wanted another Nissan. As someone who frequents r/cars, I realize a Nissan isn't exactly the most pragmatic choice. Their automatic transmissions are shockingly unreliable,their designs are polarizing, their best cars, the Z and the GT-R, have been left to stagnate, and the brand overall skews so hard toward "value" that they really don't compete in any meaningful way besides price. And it's not like I even have any brand loyalty to Nissan. If anything, I just really loved my old stupid appliance and wanted another one.

So, behold, my 2019 B17 Nissan Sentra. I've had it a week so far, and I'm incredibly happy with it. Like Breadloaf before it, this one is a base model with a 6-speed manual. I'm still getting used to having such luxuries as power mirrors, cruise control, bluetooth, and keyless entry, and the abundance of electronic assists makes all of the inputs feel way lighter than the car it replaced, but the B17 is such a pleasant step forward from the B16. In keeping with the theme of giving my cars bread names, this new Sentra is named "Kashipan" (Japanese for sweet roll).

My 2011 taught me that a car didn't need to have 400 horsepower and active aero to be something special. Economy cars like my Sentras are designed around the philosophy of providing as much car as a person could possibly need, and I have the utmost respect for that. Sure, it's a stupid appliance, but it's my stupid appliance.
