on there website, it says it’s the best playing yo-yo in the world, how do you think it matches up against say, punchline, hatrick, 888x, BOSS, 44, Eneme, etc.

Its not how good it plays that makes it $500. its what its made of. Magnesium, hence the name MG. It is extremely expensive to produce, same with titanium.

I tried a first run original red mg, and it was actually really good.  
Had a really cool and solid feel to it, and handles tricks nicely. I used it for 5A but 1A I am sure it would be awesome also, is it worth 500? Hmmm not sure, but if you can get one used for cheaper its worth it I think.
