I ended up nabbing a Duncan Raptor Mongu Edition, which is from the 2018 redesign of the Raptor! It’s very close to what I wanted out of the light, floaty and undersized experience with a lot of nostalgia. Not as rounded, but super fun regardless honestly. ![20250610_121308](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/b/1/1b1e29a771de0e79b7fb142573bc592e3746d419.jpeg) ![20250610_121248](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/9/3/3/933ff0acbb133a843f6855c43b12db5adc7f6b5f.jpeg) ![20250610_121317](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/5/7/15710a356cf1b3456d1de39d587655d5b1c3802b.jpeg) ---

Thats an [OG Raptor](https://yoyo.fandom.com/wiki/Duncan_Raptor) De-Luxxe series from 2010. The Raptor 2 (2018) was more orange with a brown Mongu > [@What are you throwing in 2021?](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/what-are-you-throwing-in-2021/331853/2051): > > From the Duncan De Luxxe series, a Mongu Edition Raptor (v1) and some G-Strings, is it 2011 or 2021? ---

Oh wow thank you for telling me, I thought I got the new one all along! I wonder how the 2018 redesign plays in comparison ---

The 2018 [Raptor](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/the-duncan-raptor-is-back/289197) is smaller and lighter at 59 grams and it kind of needs its plastic caps on which are white and would cover up the Mongu engraving. Also this Duncan design has no axle hole, so it was also rather difficult to get the caps off once installed without damaging them or the anodizing. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/0/6/4068fcf6f959ea798f7edbd59f463eb47ef6709d.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/1/a/f1a40b842acd0c7e18427b400661273907f9cfed.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/c/8/d/c8dd55b6ac79d21760807311fc5aa97df455e5bc.jpeg) Diameter: 52.82 mm / 2.08 inches Width: 40.28 mm / 1.58 inches Gap Width: 4.00 mm / 0.16 inches Weight: 58.6 grams [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/fun-round-shaped-organic-similar-to-metal-drifter/411587.md?page=1)
