Looking at Duncans site they list the Fuschia (pink) under the Imperials but not under the butterfly

Wow Toys R Us still exists over there? You are very lucky, I’m pretty sure in the states they closed all their locations like 6 years ago.

Yes pink is standard for Imperials but special for butterflies. We also still have Toys R Us in Canada. 😌

After scrolling around on Google maps I’m actually seeing there are still a handful scattered around the country still. The closest one to me is 290 miles away lol. They used to be everywhere though. One in every city. Now they are just a tiny little nook inside of some Macy’s stores.

Edit: Apparently these locations are a new thing as of the past year or so. Heck yeah! I hope they come back!

As s former toys r us employee, seeing the brand try to come back in the US is bittersweet, being stuck in a little corner at macys store is kinda sad to me, but hopefully it can build itself up to its former glory.

My buddy was a seasonal employee at one and said it was the worse job he ever had. That being said, I loved Toys R Us.

Ahh, that makes sense.

No, I’m happy with the pink and psychedelic that I have.  
I just remember the times when I wanted to get back into yoyoing, but couldn’t find any in toy stores.  
It’s cool that they’re available to the public. People may randomly pick them up and have a really nice yoyo to play with. They make awesome gifts too!

Question for you butterfly hypebeasts. I love my butterfly, I just wish it was a bit more consistently snappy. Has anyone found a yoyo that’s very similar to the butterfly but with better response?

I played Butterflies with the axle double wrapped for a long time. I found it could still sleep but also had a snappy response.

Edit: I guess I didn’t answer your question. I think a lot of wood fixies deliver a snappier response. The Manta Ray is plastic body with a wood axle and the Legend Wing is all wood. I assumed your question implied a similar budget, and both of those are around $10.

I was more so referring to similar shape and weight with just more reliable response but same amount of sleep time. I love my ProFly, it’s probably the closest I have, but the shape has more of an H to it.

Butterfly, Manta Ray, Legend Wing.

The Manta Ray is a tiny bit slimmer and has the cap noticeably recessed under the sides.

It’s a little heavier. It has metal weight rings under the caps.
