The :black_circle:/:yellow_circle: one is one of the coolest looking yo-yos of all time IMHO. I loved that thing so much!
Did you polish this one yourself? I’ve seen images of them raw before…but not this shiny! :heart:

I use those Werrd holsters but I replaced the bracelets with YYE ones to make them cooler

This was one of the most simple and coolest holster I saw but they are discontinued.
So it was awesome seeing it come on sale on BST

Finally got a Nickel Plated Markmont Classic. My favorite throws are the MC and the Parlay. Now I have both in a “normal” anodized finish and nickel plating. Very excited.

I also picked up a couple DS bearings to try, one platinum and one gold.

A set of @markmont Cumulus string.

Finally it took about a year to get a bottle of my favorite Blanton’s Bourbon. A friend also recommended trying the Eagle Rare.

I’d say overall a good day.

Wish I had known you were looking for a nickel MC, I have a collector’s edition in nickel I’m thinking about unloading. Only threw it twice and put it up.
Also, the eagle rare is a good inexpensive sippper if you can find it for retail.

I haven’t really been vocal about the Nickel. I had a post that might still be open, but Garrett had one and we talk about all the time. I asked him when he was ready let me know and I would buy it from him.

The bourbon came from a Costco in CT. I work for Michelin so I was helping their grand opening in East Lyme. I spotted the Blantons which is super hard to get anymore and they sold it for $45. Thats like $20 cheaper than anywhere else. The Eagle Rare was like $28. Both pretty good deals.

Yeah I just got my last bottle of eagle rare for $28. The Blanton’s… I still have one unopened bottle but it’s so hard to get, as you know. It’s great stuff at retail, so good, but I don’t think it’s worth the $100+ resale prices

Nice! Is it any different than the final version? Looks the same far as I can tell. I just got one recently and I love it. It’s one of my favorite bi-metals, maybe my favorite. Nice @twitch77 approved color.
