The wwonder is an amazing. I have a dazzler, wonder, and wwonder. The wwonder is a little wider and the shape is softened a bit. Feels almost organic but plays still like a dazzler. I love it.
It already is discontinued, the current only way get it is by lucky box to clear out their inventory. Same strategy they use with Ti FireWorks and past throw.
If “potentially”, there is no way Komari-san would spread misinformation for YYR lmao
Well let’s see if that happens since the official drop is 2021 and they only made public sale on site only once for global release at(¥55,000 or $550 at the time conversion rate) and only kept it to in store purchase after that. Since then I’ve been looking for one in secondary market for those who buy at initial drop or lucky box winner to sell.
From the recent footage of the nir store on X, there seems no Wwonder and Wonder on display. IMO the goal is either clear out the current titanium inventory to invest more in signature release.
The “near future” phrase from YYR which I’ve heard same with FG Dazzler where they stated we will not sell that in near future make me thought there will be second run and been wishing since then.
There may potentially be a few deadstock WWunders left at Kengo’s house in Mie Prefecture. I remember seeing on Twitter a few months ago that they found some mint yoyos especially Draupnirs, lazer, etc resurfacing from his storage room during a cleanup. These were moved to Tokyo and sold at NIR.
Yeah they do have some stock left at Kengo place but mostly Wunder and Wonder, same with older run of YYR from early days. Wish I can be in Japan couple months back when they held events to buy old stock yoyo when showing them you own at least 6 or 8 YYR.
Really lucky to the guy who got that 44CLASH Draup in that event!
Yes, the correct name was Wunder as Kengo was a big fan of the Evangelion anime, and the name was inspired by the battleship from the series. As for the Dazzler, I can only recall someone setting their Dazzler on fire via random japanese twitter user.
Btw, here is some info on the “new color” that I research and ask some of my friend:
It is not officially done by YYR but by outside custom, similar listing can be found on Nest and Mercari with note: “process done by individual” and priced at really low price compare to listing with similar condition. The chance is YYR is helping their friend in selling those or just a new strategy to dump excessive stock.
That’s why I doubt it, because unlike other brand YYR aesthetic tends to keep minimal especially to their Ti. I’ve been following YYR in very first day and they have reshape their business many times, so with the current team follows minimalism, this Wunder looks more like custom product.
If you want further discuss, message me or create new thread for YYR discussion. Since I don’t want my post seems like spam and to respect other selling post too.
