What did you get in the mail, 2023

Interesting, it could also have to do with the anodize bath; time, if it was allowed to etch into the surface. Just a guess, though, I am not a “finisher”. I’m not aware of any blasted Kamuraijus but maybe!

[TheThrowingGnome]

Not blasted, but clear usually has the most “blast like” finish. Also, the Pyramatte has gotten better in recent years it seems.

Can’t wait to get this thing ultra-grey’d.

Pardon my ignorance, but what is ultra-grey’d?

Ultra Grey silicone for response pads! I just love how binds feel with it. Secure but not snappy or snaggy. It’s my favorite “pads” for unresponsive yoyos.

I see the ultra grey thread is spilling into other parts of the forum.

[Big (David H)]

This is a super fun one. Nice and floaty feeling while still maintaining plenty of power and stability. I can see this staying in my current lineup for the foreseeable future.

Didn’t quite arrive in the mail, but this last Friday I had my third visit to One Drop! David, Shawn, and Andrew remain the coolest dudes in the game. Picked up a color shift cerakote Wyvern and this beautiful baby blue cerakote Fat Tire 20/20:

Also— don’t really know where else to put this— I spent a year and a half or so up in Portland animating on Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio, and a couple of months ago we won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. I finally got back up there this weekend and got to take my picture with the Oscar and a bunch of other statues we won. Given that I always have a throw on me, I did what anyone would do in my situation:

[bigstupidbees (Nathan)]

Pinocchio was a masterpiece, thank you for your efforts toward making it exist!

Love the colorshift, and that baby blue fat tire is especially gorgeous. I want one!

That is totally beyond amazing! It was an awsome film! I’m blown away by stop motion animation!

[LX_Emergency (Alexander Noot)]

I was so excited for this package. And it’s amazing.

[fradiger (the world is a beautiful cat and i must meow meow meow)]

God I had one of those gameboy cases growing up, haven’t seen one of those in forever.

What is the Antarctica? Is that a bi-metal Titanic?

[LX_Emergency (Alexander Noot)]

Kind of yeah.

[Grendel (The Voice of All Grendel’s world wide.)]

So nice!!

[Grendel (The Voice of All Grendel’s world wide.)]

I’m sorry, I hated that remake of a classic animated film that didn’t need to be remade,. But Love that photo.
Have a nice day!!!

[Grendel (The Voice of All Grendel’s world wide.)]

Not mine, I’m just sending this to that Mullins guy.
I think he’ll like it.
Pin by that Adam Brewster guy, think he’s an Esquire now.
