This is everything I wanted when I first ordered a Butterfly AL. I really wanted to preserve the Delrin Plastic and the solid white sticker it came with just wasn’t doing it for me! Thank you so much to @LordKingOf Ryno for shipping me a pair of transparent stickers. I’m absolutely smitten with how this looks & stoked it’s got the transparent logo on both sides! ![IMG_4317](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/8/4/d84e8a4f857bd513f5b258abe0af8fa812041692.jpeg) ![IMG_4319](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/b/d/fbd47f834d64e5075ad5a792ac745c2bccc10d45.jpeg) ---

I know y’all love Nectar strings, but I figured I could do better. ![monocolor-honey](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/b/7/5/b7526897dacf52253617a1de72ee9ab80ff1544e.jpeg) That right there is a _honey_ string. It’s a cotton/silk blend. They’re up in the Throw-Yo shop now. Currently only in white, but more colors are coming soon. ---

Can confirm, these are great strings. I’ve had one on my main fixie for over a week and it’s still playing as good as the second day (they play better after a short break in. But even for the break in, they play great too). I’d say I’ve put a solid 8 hours or more of play on the one string. It’s getting a little dirty now from my grubby hands, but it shows very little sign of wear. ---

I have found my people 😁 I love Duncan Butterfly and butterfly adjacent yoyos (Weekender, Moonshine, Legend Wing). Here is some of my Duncan collection. The one in the middle is the XT that got me into yoyoing back around 2014 in my late 20s. Started back up earlier this spring after taking a several year break. Stumbled upon the thread researching how to add finger spin cups to a fixed Butterfly. While I’ve got one all apart, I’m gonna sand to the outside shell to a matt finish for better tape measure tricks. Thinking the yellow and white psychedelic will undergo the procedure 😁 ![1000011296](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/0/c/2/0c29cf52bf6fd56574adbc0580b8715ed5906e6f.jpeg) [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/butterfly-hype-beasts-thread-more-colours-and-special-editions/366171.md?page=52) [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/butterfly-hype-beasts-thread-more-colours-and-special-editions/366171.md?page=54)
