I didn’t know that the hubstack had an led option! Awesome! I have been using the Duncan pulse a lot lately to teach people and they love the light up yoyos. ---

I have a YYF Hubstack Afterglow. LEDs light up when thrown, and the plastic on my particular one also glows in the dark. Think they’re around $25. I think there is also a Yomega Raider that lights up, but I think those are responsive. ---

How does it play? I never tried a hubstack and not sure what to expect from that one. I’m not super-advanced and already have so many yoyos. Is it just a gimmick that’d be fun for a night or two then collect dust? Is it a truly unique experience (besides the lights)? ---

The hubstacks make it kind of unique. You can do some cool things with them you can’t do on other yoyos. I will say it’s not very stable through longer combos, but still pretty fun to play with. Its something I’ll take to festivals with me to play at night, but for regular play I don’t tend to pick it up. ---

Just a bit pricey. Half the price of a Shutter which I want to get eventually. Thank you for the info. ---

I’m up for getting one for myself at that price but to give away, meh, too much. $15, sure. $25, couldn’t swing that. ---

The Hubstack is the best light up yo-yo I’ve ever tried. I don’t have a responsive one, and I haven’t tried the Kui. It’s not very stable, but a centering bearing helps it a lot. I have both the Afterglow, and the USA one. They are a lot of fun. Definitely recommend! ---

Several people have said the Hubstack Afterglow is unstable. This makes me think if I bought it the novelty of the lights would be gone in 2 days and the vibe would bug me so much that I’d chuck it in the box with the other annoying or sub par yoyos Ivpurchased before I knew anything about yoyos. ---

It’s not “unstable”. It’s perfectly playable. You may not play it all the time, but it’s worth having for certain times, and the hubstacks are fun. I’d like to add that everybody on here should own at least one of these as well! > **[YYF Elec-Trick Spin Top](https://shop.yoyoexpert.com/collections/yoyofactory/products/yyf-elec-trick-spin-top?variant=18874929284)** > > The YoYoFactory Elec-Trick is a really fun new spin top with the perfect build for players of any skill level.With a tough polycarbonate body built for impacts, a bearing tip for extra long spin time, and a string ring to help beginners learn faster,...

Okay, you said it was not very stable. I’d like one but I’m trying not buy any yoyos for awhile. My collection is a bit redundant. I just like the idea of a light up and the Pulse is a great price but I’m not into the shape. ---

I already have a lot of loopers. I like a wide gap butterfly shape. I like the new bigger Pulse but the gap is too narrow for my tastes at this time.
