Actually that sounds pretty cool. I’m sure it wouldn’t be too small, and would still be a player. ---

Personally I would like to see a taller one, in the 57-58.5mm Diameter but maintaining the same width. I feel that the RBC is already on the small side of 55. ---

I’m sure this is out of scope but i’ve been wanting a nickle throw to develop a gorgeous patina. wooden ones would be amazing… (i’ll just see myself out. 😅) A mini would be very cool, id even like one made of recycled HDPE like the survivalist. ---

So I’ll expand my thoughts a tad now that I’ve had coffee I think for rbc it’s gonna be a cost issue for some of this stuff. The hollow design I imagine makes it more expensive to make. If my assumption is right then pc or ti is gonna be an expensive endeavor. I feel like pc could work but would have to change the design. Ti could keep the design but I imagine price point would be close to 300 maybe I’m off but I can’t imagine that’s gonna be a cheap thing to make. To sucks to work with and that hollow design would be tough in ti. Moon rock sounds doable in comparison I worry it would be a string cutter but that’s something that could be smoothed out but I don’t feel that would raise the cost dramatically and would give a really neat texture and feel. Cerakote or polished would be neat too. Either way I feel like a special ano or coating would be more in line with what most would be able to afford unless @anon5341354 can really tweak the design to fit a more expensive to work with medium. That said if the metal harbinger is as good as I imagine and more simple in design in the sense it doesn’t have the hollow cap complexity I could see value in a to version of that in the future. For size I imagine ti would have to be scaled down just to make it affordable regardless of design. I would also be content with just a really sturdy aluminum though. ---

> [@Captrogers](#): > > metal harbinger is as good as I imagine I think these need to be explored, this YoYo would be more interesting and desirable as I already have 2 RBCs, I don’t have a Metal Harbinger and I like its taller shape. Going to go play my wood one today as its FAF. ---

A titanium RBC is of interest to me for 2 reasons: 1. The thermal conductivity properties of titanium mean that it doesn’t make your hands as cold when played outside in the winter. 2. I would like an RBC that is slightly heavier. ~52-54g. I’ve actually thought that another Aluminum RBC with a **slightly larger diameter, a slightly higher inner wall (but same width) and as a result a slightly higher weight** would be very interesting to me. I think it would stick stalls better, because I love playing the RBC but it is a bit trickier to land stalls consistently with its design.
