Besides, it will take two weeks for them to arrive…

😆

Yeah… Not funny.

No, sadly.

But mini M’n’Ms fit through just fine.

I like the Harbinger more because its better for 0A tricks and string tricks.

The only two things the RBC has over the Harbinger is easier pull starts and its more comfortable.

What I’m seeing here in this conversation is I already set the money aside I just need the yoyo available to throw money at.

Mentally I bought this yoyo when I saw Cody’s proto last year.

8 grams difference with the origen!  
the design is much different. its worth trying even if you have the RBC and Origen.

I imagine it’ll feel loads better than the proven. I don’t like the glossy finish on the Origen at all.

And this larger diameter plays a nice effect on play as well. It seems that all of my larger diameter throws change direction with less effort, it seems the same would apply here too. Thanks @MarkD and @anon5341354 fir bringing to all of our attention…valuable new yo-yo metrics that, at least I know…I…will be applying right away. I’m filling a basin with water as we speak to see which ones float, and Skittles will be arriving any minute. 😘

Skittles “Can” fit through the holes on the buttons.

Kinda Gums up the play of the yoyo though…

It plays very well both with a bearing and with a blank. 🙂 The larger diameter means that it has lots of spin power but it is less zippy than the RBC. – Full review coming in the next week or so.

Almost forgot something important - all box/sticker art for the Harbinger was drawn by EOS. And of course, there’s a LowHP edition.
