I mean, Duncan and before that Playmaxx must have manufactured that thing in millions. Not to forget the Hyper Yoyo line up in Japan that uses the same cork brake pad. But somehow, it is so hard to find any NOS anywhere. ---

ya maybe so, i think it has been 10+ years since it last production. Yo Han and his team really created one of the best response system, silicone pads cannot replicate the brake pad response feel.
