I have no idea which to get, I’ve heard that they are both good. I’ve been looking more at the rally, but please help me decide!!! ---

Bottom line, the Rally is plastic, the Shutter is metal. The Shutter will give you better performance. But both are awesome. ---

I’ve got the shutter and I love it. It plays great and sleeps for a really long time. ---

I have both and I would much prefer to play with my rally. It out performs the shutter IMO. Just has a better feel. I would play with my rally over about half of the metals that I have. Which are mostly about twice the cost of the rally, some more and some less or equal to the cost of course. But just overall play, the rally wins hands down for me. ---

I think the shutter is better. It spins every long and all that… Its really good, I didn’t like the rally as much as I thought… ---

Its all preference. I personally prefer my Rally over 90% of my high-end metals. I don’t know why, it just works for me in every way possible. Not saying its “technically better”, but for me the Rally is one of the best purchases I ever made, I absolutely love it. ---

I got mine in solid violet, and it just looks AMAZING! It’s dead smooth, and really really quiet. Yeah this is true. It’s a great yoyo for the price. I think he was referring to the low price for a metal. $45 is relatively inexpensive compared to $100 counter parts. ---

Play == quality. It might play well but that doesn’t mean it was made to the standards of more expensive yoyos. [Next page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/please-help-rally-vs-shutter/59386.md?page=2)
