I have both… RBC is a very unique responsive really amazing. Get one if you can.  
el MiJo is a a great unresponsive slim line (slimmer then most) and can turn into a great slim responsive, and a legit Fixed axel. I would recommend both honestly. (I would grab 2 el MiJo just to have one set up fixed and one set unresponsive).

First run was AL7 second is AL6… both runs well have all 4 bearings (unresponsive, responsive, fixed and flat unresponsive i think, ) 2 axels and a bearing tool remover… the tool on the new run is also diffrent but I’m not certain how cause i didn’t get it yet.  
Al6 is a few grams lighter as was mentioned and the ano are diffrent. @jeduardo can confirm or correct me on all this.

Correct, first run was aluminum 7075 and came with 2 unresponsive bearings 5 mm wide, 1 responsive bearing 3 mm wide, 1 blank bearing and a bearing removal tool we made in collaboration with yoyolab.

El MiJo 6061is aluminum 6061 and comes with 1 unresponsive 5 mm wide bearing, 1 responsive 4 mm wide bearing, 1 responsive 3 mm wide bearing, 1 blank bearing and an improved version of the first bearing removal tool.

First bearing removal tool:

New improved tool (it has holes in both ends in case the bearing is on the side where the axle is located):

I just got it from the BST today. There are a couple of marks on it but it otherwise feels like it’s in good shape. I assumed the rawish areas were just artifacts of the material since there are some similar variations on the purple side of my bloodcell… If anyone but you said something I wouldn’t have given it a second thought.

Actually it could well be just the material. Sometimes as you cut deeper into thw layers, the dye hasn’t penetrated.
