Anyone given the Duncan Big Fun some throwing time yet? Is it truly BIGFUN™? Big unfun? Worth the $18?
I admit, I’m tempted. And I’m not usually a Duncan plastic fan.

Yes, I have one. It’s very solid, but it is no Yoyoempire Big Bang, unfortunately. It is not a definitive statement on oversized plastic.

Its a lot of fun. I would not recommend it if you have tiny hands, because it’s diameter is HUGE. But other than that, get it!
Big Fun is easily worth $18 though, very solidly made, enjoyable to throw, and fun colorways. I got the fake Baskin Robbins the Remy joke one 
.
I’m just addicted to the Big Bang which is basically the ultimate large plastic yoyo 
i tried one at NJ states honestly there a mixed bag, some are smooth while others have a crazy pulsating vibe even after you tune the yoyo. Although from what I did try from it, it is fun and it is big it could be a small 4a yoyo.

I have one and I like it quite a bit - it’s easily finger-spinnable, and the large diameter gives it just enough oomph. Yet, it still looks like a toy, rather than a part from a spaceship.

One really cool-looking thing about BigFun and Freehand is these two yoyos seem to be made specially tuneable. There’s two parts to it in a Duncan video.
I think the main, unique way it works is when you get it screwed together, unlike most yoyos, you can just keep screwing the halves clockwise and it won’t over-tighten or strip. You keep trying it twisted a bit until it spins smoothest. Dylan Kowalski got one smooth and one with a vibe and this guy got with him and let him know about this, and Dylan tuned out the vibe and passed on the video.

Yeah, with the new axle system the Big Fun is pretty tunable for vibe. And as always - If you ever get a yo-yo from us that has bad vibe or you can’t tune, please feel free to contact us and we’ll take care of it.
That said - I enjoy the Big Fun, it might not be something I reach for to throw every day, but it’s a really fun oversized plastic just like the name implies.
