Oh man, oh man, oh man, YoYoFactory changed the Dream titanium facebook page to 888 FOREVER. It looks like Ben is legit building hype for a re-release of the 888. There’s a vote on there for Ti or Al at the moment. I can’t lie, I want both real bad. Where is everyone else on this?

I don’t care unless it’s direct recreation of the 07 888. Everyone after that was not the same in feel.

I heard that if you listen closely that you can hear it say “People of earth, lend me your strength” and then you can do spirit bombs with it no problem.

Al.

for two reasons.

1. it’d be more affordable.
2. when’s the last time you’ve seen a green TI? lol 😛 😛

The Ti Vayder simply dusted off an old bar. No raise at all.

Could it be argued that it raised the bar on how low you can price titaniums?

Well as it’s been pointed out already, the Ti Vayder is a not for profit release so it can be priced differently than other Ti yoyos.

Right on @twitch77 TiVayder raised the value/performance bar. Now that so many people have tasted the sweetness of titanium they’ll only crave more.

Oh jeeze! I wonder how difficult it’d be to take something like a Ti-Vayder and turn it green. I wouldn’t even know where to start.

Could probably find a titanium anodizing company for that.

I don’t know about the Ti 888 concept. But redoing the 888 is a really solid idea. I’ve got no doubt @yyfben2.deactivated will do it up right.

About time for the return of a classic.

I’m just doubtful that we’ll ever get one that feels like the original. Otherwise that would have happened when it was one of the best models out and people were clamoring for a rerelease of the original instead of the newer runs they were making.
