Does anyone else on here own a Format:C Gen 2 Flat Face Proto?
On the one I have here, one side has a flat rim:
And the other side is angled inwards, like the retail version:
This is really strange. Are they really meant to be asymmetrical like this?
Looks like the other one drop model I forgot the name
this is crazy cool lmao. How does it play?
FWIW, I have one with two flat faces.
It is a proto, and they may have been prototyping that feature. Protos aren’t meant to be perfect they are for actualizing ideas and concepts prior to production. So yes It could be normal and unique to that prototype
In this case, I think an oversight happened at some point. Only one of the protos is described on the Lab Experiments page, but it is very specific about what to expect.
One Drop usually sell specific prototypes, not a random assortment of them.
Well that’s interesting. I bought this one from its original owner @Zeek95.
@da5id any clue what’s going on here? (Check the first post) Zeek’s friend also has one like this too apparently? Like, did the halves get mixed up with a production Format:C Gen 2 when you guys were assembling them? There are only 8 of these things in the world so it shouldn’t be too hard to get to the bottom of this. 
By any chance, have you contacted OneDrop directly? Have you contacted the exact people that would have the exact answer you seek?
Just curious. Because more often than not, they have a fairly good idea what they’re doing.
(TFW when I literally just pinged David)
Do you recall the weight difference for the flat face proto? IIRC it was <1g (0.7g?).
Format:C Gen 2 Flat Face Proto: 61.8 grams so it’s only .4 grams heavier than the released version. The outer face is flat instead of angled in. 8 units made.
Thanks! (Also answers my questions about the Still Rollin Heavy)
There were three different prototypes. It looks like we made a mistake in assembling that one. I guess it’s a one of kind 
What was the third prototype? 
I never heard of that until just now.
Message the friend and make two cohesive yoyos I guess
Apparently Zeek actually misunderstood about the asymmetry thing, so presumably their friend has a normal one. The other frankenproto may still be out there somewhere 
Or not. Sometimes there are odd numbers of halves. More likely this is the only one.
I demand to know more about the secret third prototype!
