Why have you wanted a DV888? Why do you say you like the distinct H shape with large rims? Have you tried either of these? ---

Both are good yoyos, as you seem to know. Sorry, but we can’t pick a yoyo for you. Go with the one you feel you like more. ---

I recommend a DV888 because of its smoothe and fast play. It also has a wide gap that makes landing string tricks a lot easier. Another thing, is the DV888 has really tight binds that just give you that satisfaction feeling. To me the design and looks are awesome too… its simplicity is what makes it great. I personally own a Dark Blue, large bearing and MAN they are amazing. Overall I give the DV888 a 10 out of 10.

The Lunatic is wider than the Dv888, the Lunatic also plays smooth and fast, although it is heavier than the Dv888, and, the links you posted don’t work at all. I’d say just wing it and pick which ever seems better to YOU. Edit: I personaly like the Dv888 more, but that’s just me. It does not mean that it’s a better yoyo.
