Nice! Wesley did the powder coating on my white VTWO and it has the same kind of surface texture (actually, mine looks like it might be a little rougher than yours). Love it! ---

@pinhead Glad you like it all! I’ll tell you a little secret… my wife packages orders and puts the stickers and extras in, so she’s the one to thank :joy: I showed her your comment and she was like “Oh I remember that one!” Haha we’re glad you enjoyed the stickers and strings! ---

From left to right: Lowerkase, Sprite, Raw 44 ![lowerkase_sprite_raw44](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/a/7/ea7393d51c6cda1ae800fdca35188bcbb105ab09.jpeg) Ok, technically the Sprite came in last week, but I thought I’d let it sit in the picture with its kin. It’s interesting to see the slight design changes they’ve made to account for the different materials and weights. I’m curious to see what the production 44 looks like. The Sprite is…bizarre. When I pick it up, it feels like it shouldn’t work _at all_. Like one of those plastic mini yoyos in the 12 pack of party favors. But then it just…works. Not as much spin time as a bimetal\*, but I have other monometals to which it’s comparable. Any kind of jerkiness in your motions will become immediately apparent, but it’s also not as unforgiving as I thought it would be. I did have to switch to a slimmer string (RCS Socchi). Once I did that, it was much better. I actually kinda like it, even if it isn’t going to become my daily throw. I can see moving to this to smooth out tricks. Side note: don’t throw the Sprite and then try to pick up a new yoyo to evaluate. It will throw your whole sense of yoyo weight right off. I haven’t thrown the other two yet. Will try to do that this weekend. \*Edit: I only say that to suggest that it really shouldn’t be compared to that class of yoyo. It’s still an incredibly playable yoyo, however, and even with my expectations that it would be, I was still surprised with how playable it is. ---

The new Bastet II in beautiful glossy red: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/8/8/2888968d2aa141436746882dae319c7cc9ff78bd.jpeg) This is a terrific yoyo. The only thing I would change about it is I would narrow the gap by at least 0.1mm. In order to get really snappy binds the way I like, I have to use pretty thick string, which I don’t consider a good solution overall. ---

Wait… why would you compare the Sprite’s spin time to a bimetal? No way a 23 g yoyo can be that long spinning.
