If you’re already getting the Protostar, I’d give the Whip a miss. You should get a popstar though because those things are just little smile factories =) Yuki ---

> [@DrAwesome](#): > > It seems as if whenever I post on a thread everyone stops posting on it Don’t take it personally. I think on this one, you jumped in right as it was reaching it’s natural ending point. Your idea was actually pretty good though. Plastic, metal, delrin. You did end up going over his budget though. The Halo is $25 over the $30 target for throw #3. I can’t say I disagree with your recommendation. The Halo is awesome. ---
