To be honest the first time I saw it for a moment I thought it was already “half swapped” - a two tone cyan color scheme 🙂 > The current protos use a standard grit blast which is pretty smooth. I toy with the idea of going rougher for more old school vibes. Oh, a heavy blast would be really nice IMO. Maybe something similar to candy blast? ---

Exciting stuff! Colorway-wise, I will say I probably wouldn’t get one if it only came in a red/yellow half-swap 😅 I agree with some of the other comments that the blue on the protos is already kind of perfect; it reminds of a clear sky on a beautiful summer day 🩵. That said, a half-swap with that blue and a medium-soft pink would be lit. Or a blue/white half-swap like a puffy cloud. Just some happy light colors. Something about red to me always feels so heavy and serious. Blue and yellow would also be a nice swap too though (I think the blue would help prevent the other side from feeling like an egg). ---

> [@AudreySickburn](#): > > IMO the ones in the original picture are perfection already. I totally agree. The color and the texture …. And, the engraving. To me, I don’t want/wouldn’t want, the Blumi to end up in colorways that look like a Josey or a Bape or anything else somewhat nostalgia driven. I want the New yo-yo to carry its own identity. A yo-yo that may just become a New Legend, should stand out on its own merits: both visually and playability. No case of mistaken identity. Whatever color or colors the yo-yos are, when the retail boxes are opened up, they don’t need to be reminiscent of any past yo-yo colorway. When I get a few of them and somebody may see one, I don’t want that person to say, ‘hey, that looks like a…….’. I want the person to say, ‘Hey, wow, is that a Blumi’? Uh…. Yes it is. It was designed by a German Mastermind, and that is exactly what it is. ….A Blumi. PS…. All those colors Dominik posted up..’do’ look excellent regardless of my personal opinion. That engraving in the cup, already kind of identifies it as a Blumi, lol Regardless, whatever Dominik decides, is going to amazing just like every other thing he does. Count me in….. ---
