> [@TMCertified](#): > > Well, > > I’m sure they were sold at store front locations like A-Z, Bird in Hand, and so forth, but it sounded to me that they were trying to get mass appeal out of them. While I’m not a big marketer when it comes to YoYos, I do know how me as a consumer would approach something. Until YoYo’s make it to the same level as other hobbies and shed the “children’s toy” status that we all know is not true, but the majority do not, selling a yoyo in something other than a hobby shop for $65.00 is probably not going to fly. If 2 years ago I saw a $65.00 yoyo in a store there would be no way I would have bought it. But now I spend 100.00 on a yoyo. Now if your going to limit it to these type of stores you need to sell something for like $25.00 to $30.00 max and can make a metal version but that way the average consumer can see the difference for the extra cost, but I find it hard that they see a duncan for 6.00 and then a 2.0 for $65.00 they are going to pick up the $65.00 one. I remember going to Bird in Hand about 4 years ago and seeing those INSANELY PRICED YO-YOS!!! Seriously, what nutball would pay $100.00 for a yoyo that’s just like a $2.00 Duncan. ;D ---

Haha, yeah I just got mine in too. Got the YYE Case as well because this was bought as a Christmas present for my 7 year old son. I got the same thing that others have mentioned. So nothing new yet. Same colors too, Green Northstar, Purple 2.0 and the wood with the cards and stickers. I’ve thrown the Northstar back at worlds 2010 and didn’t like it and decided not to buy it. Now after a little over a year I threw it a few times and still prefer the protostar over the Northstar. But I can certainly tell the difference between the two and I can feel it a little heavier. I can certainly see this being strictly a preference. For me, I like the Protostar better. As for the 2.0. Two things really stick out to me. The purple color is really amazing. I love that color and looks so so so good. The second thing that really stood out was the way it feels in the hand. It surprisingly feels really good and comfortable in your hand. After that I am not that thrilled with how it played but from a $65.00 yoyo for only $20.00 stand point (just splitting the 40.00 between north and 2.0) wow, not a bad deal at all haha. My problem is that I haven’t thrown a mid level yoyo since I bought the DV888 and didn’t like it and traded it. So now mine are either high end metals or protostar and DM2. I have a cafe racer that should be in tomorrow which is in the same price range so I’ll be able to better compare them because I don’t think it is fair for me to give more than just a few thoughts on the 2.0 as it doesn’t compare to my 100.00 throws by any stretch. My 7 year old though is going to flip when he opens the box and sees his new YYE Bag and 3 new yo-yos! Thanks YYF! ---

Whats the 401k? Haven’t seen one of those. I got a blue northstar and a yellow 2.0. I wish I got the purple one ☹ It seems to play at least as nice as my dv888. I can’t really give it a real go since I just got stitches out of my thumb and have to be careful not to reopen the wound. ---

If anyone does not want a 2.0, please PM me) Blue Northstar Save Japan wooden yoyo long strong stickers, stickers, MOAR STICKERS enough cards to make a battle game Awesome box. It’s a bummer that my special metal wound up being a duplicate, but the Northstar plays awesome! Playing with the wooden one is also a bit nostalgic. Hope to see this again next year. ---
