Latest word from the machine shop is that this will be ready in October. Still excited for these! I don’t even have any of the prototypes right now, I really miss them.

Super excited about this one! I’ve been getting more into responsive play, and this thing looks really interesting. Cool stuff, for sure!

The turning part of manufacturing will have been completed by now. This yoyo actually requires special tooling to anodize the caps (they don’t have an axle hole to screw onto the regular anodizing racks) so anodizing may take a bit!

Please pardon my ignorance. There appears to be axle holes on the interior faces of the RBC. ??? Why can’t that be used?

The caps don’t seem to have any holes looking at the photos above (the exploded view obviously). Yeah, we’re all excited.

The tap-through hole is part of the main body, not the cap. The cap is mostly just a big curve, plus a ledge that interfaces with the rest of the body to form the press fit.

Everything else for this project is complete - packaging, parts, etc. Another brand new production yoyo is nearing the end of manufacturing. This one hasn’t been teased yet, so hopefully it’ll be a fun surprise!

Thanks @Lido!

To add some extra detail, this is a longer anodization job than usual since special tooling is required (I assume for the caps, since they don’t have a screw hole to mount them on a rack).

Here’s a body half photo they sent me, pre-anodization:

And, of course, a blasted cap (still pre-anodization):

It’s pre-colorizing. Clear didn’t make the cut in the production colorways.

I anticipate being able to test + package them all within a week of when I get them, and then it’ll be 2-4 weeks for them to get all mailed out and ready at retailers. So at this point I think it’s going to blow past my earlier October estimate.
