I believe it was mentioned on Instagram that eu stores will be receiving it in the near future. Not 100% sure though.
Yea they feel really high quality. I canāt stand the cheap sticky plastic feel either. These definitely donāt have that.
Thanks everyone for the kind comments
I tried really hard to channel the same energy I do into my higher end $300 titaniums into something everyone can afford! I worked hard with the manufacture to achieve the matte machined finish you see - it feels like a velvet similar to a machined delrin yoyo.
The response has been overwhelmingly positive so I appreciate everyone for the kind words. This project was a huge amount of work but to see so many people who like it makes it worth it!
Thanks again for Yoyoexpert for supporting this. They were a huge part of making this happen - I wouldnāt have had the confidence to do it without Andreās excitement about this project. So if anything please get one to support Yoyoexpert!
Is the finish on these different than other machined plastic yoyos like the speedaholic xx? If so why? Is there a separate process for the finish?
Any feedback on this yo-yo from anyone who has bought one? All the rave reviews are from people who know the manufacturer and got one gifted to them. The people who bought after reading all the glowing reviews seem to be silent. Any thoughts? Or is silence all the review we need?
Happy cake, sir.
I bought one, it will take some time to get it, until there, you would probably get your opinion formed.
Thanks. It is great to get feedback from others before taking the plunge. I am always on the lookout for fine-playing plastics. I appreciate the opinions of those in the know.
I have it and it is easily the best plastic Iāve used. Itās the only plastic that once I start playing it I donāt want to stop, similar to a good metal. Definitely not going in a case, sits right next to me in the living room
Yeah, itās a good one. I bought one and have been playing it frequently. Wonderful quality for $30. Iām not the person who can fully push it to its limits, but from an average playerās perspective it seems really capable. I like that it feels floaty.
Also really smooth and the finish feels nice.
I bought one and Iām sincerely impressed with it. Itās in the running to become my favorite plastic. Iām waiting until the honeymoon period is over before I say that with certainty.
Regarding the finish, itās similar to the Speedaholic XX, but it feels even better for grinding.
Dylan actually bought the yo-yoā¦And if you donāt wanna believe his view then you just donāt want to be happy, lol.
Because this guy can tear tricks upā¦
PSā¦. Youāve spent 1000ās on yo-yosā¦ How skeptical can you get over. $30 yo-yo?
Waaay too funnyš
Hey,
Every single Plastic Fulvia you see has been purchased at full price. Even my closest friends in Toronto had to buy them - unfortunately this is not a yoyo I can send out for free because the mold cost too much.
Even CLYW Steve and Chris bought them directly from my store - they were not paid or gifted to post anything. I donāt believe in doing stuff like that. Just wanted to clarify that with everyone.
All units you see in the wild were purchased. You can ask them if you want!
Sorry; did not even think about whether they were purchased or not. The purpose of my post was to get more opinions about this yo-yo from those that already had one. A bit of attention does not hurt either.
Heh! Yeah just wanted to make sure everyone knew - I often look for reviews like crazy when purchasing something and when I find out its a sponsored video or review I immediately get turned off cuz its most likely biased.
Well the cold locked up the bearing in mine so I gotta wait for the bearing to warm up/replace it before I can play with it extensively, but mine arrived thank you so much @yoyodoc for the Christmas gift. Itās much appreciated.
EDIT: cleaned the seat, was concerned because of cleaning with acetone, but it spins good now, is good yo.
i bought one. its good. feels diferent, pretty unique. in terms of performance iād say its right on par (maybe a bit behind) a Speedaholic XX. This aint outperforming any metal, but its so fun, unique and premium that its a no brainer if you like plastic yoyos. Really happy with mine. Will buy another if they ever release more exciting colors.
is the plastic finish feels similar to yyj classic? dunno if you tried one (classic).
I echo these sentiments. Itās a fantastic plastic, but thereās some honeymooning happening. Super glad I picked one up I love nice delrin throws and this has that type of premium feel (despite not being that material). A plastic worthy of the Luftverk name.
I have one on the way but Iām expecting the plastic fulvia to be a little more matte. I think the classic would fall in between the fulvia and something like a first base
