Just speaking for myself here, but I can’t stand the graphics on the Freehands. The only thing holding me back from getting the new Freehand 1 and 1 AL is the stock caps and difficulty in getting blank ones.
Otherwise, I do love the Freehand shape for organics.
With the plastic caps, you can take the graphics off with nail polish remover or static guard.
Right on, thanks, that’s better than the sandpapering that I was planning.
I’d still love a source of blank caps, particularly to get them for the FH1AL.
I feel like I saw that Duncan may be producing plastic caps again but I could be wrong. @bjardin might be able to help
that’s a beauty. i haven’t tried anything form General Yo yet. May have to look now.

If you are an organic fan, definitely go after a 5 star, Hatrick, Torrent 2, Essence or Mini Star 2
They recently did a ten year anniversary run on the Hatrick and 5 star, which is the 5 star pictured, and they should be easier to acquire on the BST. I got this for $90, I think they retailed for $125, so this would be a good time to try to land one
Slightly off topic to the thread but PLEASE be very careful with something like nail polish remover. A lot of nail polish remover contains acetone which you absolutely do not want to use, although you can purchase acetone free nail polish remover, you just need to be aware of what it contains. Denatured alcohol would be my recommendation, acetone will take the graphic right off but it will also melt the plastic and you’ll be left with a cap that looks uglier than it did with the graphic.
A drop of lighter fluid will also do the trick, just look at the ingredients in whatever you use give it a spot test on the back of the cap before attempting to rub the entire graphic off.
thanks for that info. i’m going to start looking

We will! But not blank caps.
Duncan is listed as a toy company, so everything that goes out from our factory needs to be dated and with branding/logo.
But lots of caps coming soon!
What if you branded the underside of the cap.
You cant talk about organic throws without talking about the grail. G.O.A.T.
Move past that and get one because they are amazing throws
The Grail is excellent. I still pick the 420 over it. Such a unique and special yoyo
You might be able to get some of the Atmos or RSO caps, I think they’re Freehand compatible.
Already done. My FH1AL arrives tomorrow.
Snapped a better pic with more of the popular organics I have. Was missing a few legends in my last pic.
5 Star, Hatrick, Peak 1, Peak 2
Grail, B7, MCMO, Creep, 420L
888, Panorama, Diorama, WM1
I just received a od overture. Its great.
Indeed. The Overture is a lot of fun. I got one recently after researching what organics to try next.
If I had my hands on a 5 star, Hatrick, 888 and Creep, out if what you pictures, what two would you recommend next?
