I imagine folks can 3d print caps like they do for various Duncan models and the mod44. Super neat. It does give off gemstone vibes and the yoyo itself looks very spyglass like to me but I haven’t seen a unicorn in person yet either. ---

Unicorn is much larger. ---

The trompo tips are where it’s at!

As a spintop player and yoyo player I have always wanted a cool product that legitimately walks both lines. Many have tried but none quite got it right. The Unicorn is exciting. I’m going to be working on video content specifically for the trompo tips over the next few months. Watch for some COOL ■■■■ ---

Idk if anyone has said this but I just found an easier way to remove the caps. Instead of using the pump with a basketball needle you can just use a can of blow off with the attachment it comes with. It came right off with 1 quick squeeze. ![20230810_104138](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/f/f/0/ff007aeec9aa33de87ceb5f4bc02ee7106acf734.jpeg) ---
