Another one bites the dust :slightly_frowning_face:
To my fellow dog walkers (and other tricks involving surfaces) do you get this axle crack after doing it a lot? I feel like I’ve only experienced this on ones I use to engage with my environment.

I’ve glued together Butterflies that looked much worse :grin:

I usually loose Butterflies to some kind of ground contact; it’s often unintentional for me.

If you decide not to try to repair I’d hold onto the axle and good half for half swap when the next one bites the dust.

The axles are also great if you have something like an old legend wing that you can cut in half and drill out.

I do miss the older, concave butterfly axles. It’s the only thing I wish they would’ve kept from the older models. The newer flat axles work great too, especially in the new mould, but I feel like the concave worked better for mods.

some of the butterflies from the 2014 to 2017 range are really brittle… i’ve opened new packs with multiple butterflies in them already cracked in the package. can’t say i’ve seen this happen after multiple walk the dogs on more recent versions… but they do crack if they hit something hard generally.

I’m curious to see if swapping the axle for brass would change the feel. Particularly as it starts to get oils on it and oxidize over the months.

I had a string eater beater that I swapped caps and axles with. Back in business :dog2:

There’s still plenty of time…

is there? i thought it might just be a big up front unload. i have 3 targets by me I’ve been keeping an eye on and one had them but sold out and hasnt gotten more, the other two havent gotten any at all so i threw in the towel lol

I was able to get them throughout and after the holiday season last year.

They will restock throughout the Holidays. It. On average is a once a week delivery to the store with 1 to 3 restockings throughout the week.

The yoyos are not ordered individually, but come on a crate of ā€œHollidayā€ section.

The employees dont know what is in the boxes. They just take the cart to the front of the store and place what is in the boxes into the bins.

Hope this helps others.
