Beyblade X Clock Mirage Guide

Clock Mirage is the headline Blade from Takara Tomy's UX-16 Random Booster ClockMirage Select, part of the Beyblade X "Unique Line." It launched in Japan on October 11, 2025 for ¥1,400 as a blind/random booster: buyers don't choose the colour they get, they choose the box. Three colourways ship under the UX-16 code, with UX-16-01, the cyan Clock Mirage, positioned as the "main prize" pull, and 02/03 as the alternate colours — confirm each colourway's Ratchet and Bit from the official page rather than a secondhand combo string.

What's actually in the box

Clock Mirage itself is a Stamina-type, right-spin Blade weighing roughly 37.7g, built around a tall plastic frame. That height is a deliberate stamina trade-off — more mass held further from the spin axis — but it comes at a cost: the frame leaves the Ratchet exposed, which raises burst risk compared to Blades that shroud their Ratchet more fully. The prize/stock pairing is Clock Mirage 9-65B, meaning it comes assembled with a Ball Bit. Where Clock Mirage gets fussier is Ratchet compatibility: it only fits "O"-shaped-lock Ratchets, which in practice means parts like 9-65 or 4-55. Reviewers specifically call out 4-55 as the better pick for competitive builds, since swapping down from the stock 9-65 shortens the overall stack height without giving up the Ratchet-lock type Clock Mirage needs.

How players are using it

Community reviews consistently rate Clock Mirage's raw stamina performance as excellent, putting it ahead of established stamina benchmarks like Wizard Rod and Silver Wolf in endurance-focused matchups. It's also discussed as a counter to "Spin Equalization" tactics, where an opponent tries to level out spin speed differences rather than out-stamina you outright. The trade-off reviewers keep repeating is the same one built into the part itself: that exposed, tall frame makes Clock Mirage noticeably more burst-prone than lower-profile stamina Blades, so it rewards careful Ratchet/Bit pairing rather than being a drop-in upgrade. The general read is that Takara Tomy tuned it as a strong-but-balanced release rather than a format-warping one.

As with any blind-booster pull, the colour and exact combo you end up with depends on which of the three UX-16 variants you open — so if you're prepping for an event, confirm your local rules on stock vs. swapped Ratchets before you build around 4-55.

Beyond this single release, the UX line overview covers the rest of the Unique series, and the parts explained guide is handy for the Ratchet-lock terminology used above.
