The Hitman is a few millimeters larger than most undersized yoys. It used to be small, but small yoyos made it big.

Thanks guys! This is the closest yo-yo “which one’s better” forum I’ve ever seen! Like, every other one is another one! I don’t know what I’ll get yet but I’d appreciate it if you gave more suggestions! ;D

The have three special editions…

Augerbine-SOLD OUT  
Savanna- IN STOCK  
Snow Blasted-IN STOCK

I love M1s, but they are pretty narrow.

If you like a Speeder/Speedmaker/Meteor, you’ll probably like it.

I just spoke with David (from One Drop) recently through email. He said they sent the next batch of yoyos out for anodization today and expects them to be up for sale by next Wednesday latest Friday.

Just thought I’d let you guys know since there’s a few of you wanting the M1. ;D
