OK so ive just recieved my protostar in the mail today, and once I opened it i noticed it had a vibe. Then I checked the yoyo and there was like dents kinda like dings in the yoyo. And i didnt dingit was like right out of the box. so when you guys got a protostar did you have the same possible defect? please help. Also near the part where its dinged the platic or paint looks kinda like a whirpool. so is this a defect or just poor manufacturing. SoPLease Help!!!

I don’t think that YYF is getting cheap with manufacturing. It could’ve been a bad batch and you were unfortunately that unlucky person who got one. Yoyos, like most things, aren’t made one by one.
And yes, i think you should diregard it. It’s a great yoyo.
