Is this the collab with Spinworthy or a new run of something released earlier? ---

The Contact is a re-run, the collaboration with Spinworthy is something entirely new and strange and fun (and responsive). ---

Hereā€™s something new! Back to Mk1Contact news as these are releasing on the 30th. HD stands for Ham Dog. This is the signature colorway for Mk1 team member Connor Sheahan. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/7/c/77c4d3f2305d3c35edfb9729371c673d5156dd9a.jpeg) This is a watermelon colorway, something he became obsessed with after seeing a ā€œprotomelonā€ from Smashing Yoyos. This is a different take on that idea which keeps the color separation while spinning, which also smooths out the painterly green ā€œrindā€ on the rim. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/f/9/8f9a1d1b96163e0164dc8b8e6e858d7a4f407b04.jpeg) Every one of these looks slightly different due to the hand-drawn nature of the colorway. Ham Dog also made some tricks with this, thereā€™s more tricks out there of course, but hereā€™s two of them: [https://www.instagram.com/p/CRkNZ-pBtQK/](https://www.instagram.com/p/CRkNZ-pBtQK/) [https://www.instagram.com/p/CRhw-a3hW2G/](https://www.instagram.com/p/CRhw-a3hW2G/) ---

Quick news update! RBC is at the anodizer, just awaiting further news since itā€™s a bit trickier for this yoyo than others, Iā€™ve been told. Everything else for this project is complete - packaging, parts, etc. Another brand new production yoyo is nearing the end of manufacturing. This one hasnā€™t been teased yet, so hopefully itā€™ll be a fun surprise! Several items are in prototyping, including the 2nd version of the [Mk1 Spyglass](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/mk1-mechanics-yoyo-design-series/339731), and thereā€™s more yet that Iā€™d love to start prototyping - but as you can see, thereā€™s a lot in the pipeline already! As itā€™s getting close to the end of the year, Iā€™m also thinking about running more of the Exia and Contact, in new colorways. ---

Iā€™ve been thinking about it now and then, but I donā€™t have a good slot for it in the release cycle yet. If I were to make more, though - Iā€™d need some cool new subtle fades to try out. ---

The Penrose triangle is an object that canā€™t exist in 3 dimensions, first created by Oscar ReutersvƤrd in 1934. If youā€™ve picked up an Mk1 yoyo recently (thank you!), you may have spotted one on the packaging. This 3d animation reveals how a ā€œ3dā€ version of this triangle only works from a single vantage point. Weā€™re using this symbol as a representation for a new Mk1 x ??? yoyo that is arriving soon. In other news, the RBC is finally done with anodizing. It will probably be ready for next month. Thank you for your patience. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/f/a/ffa46da5cc27550f4a9ac8b6c6d17f759289372e.jpeg) These were put in _after_ the RBC and finished _before_. I actually have the full run with me now! Itā€™s collabs as far as the eye can see. ---
