Actually it was on sale for $90 on their website and it does have an aluminum ring in the cup making it a bimaterial. Kinda. Lol. It is a pleasure to play with though. I love the shape

POM is a separate material, so if it wasn’t identified as such and every other color is PC, the white and yellow versions of a yo-yo are almost certainly PC too. (POM/Delrin versions are usually a little higher priced.)
Plastic Fulvia and the other Luftverks are definitely machined PC. I’m not even sure the process that Jeffrey Pang developed for that line could be done in POM/Delrin.
You really need a strong backlight to see the translucence of POM (like the actual Sun). If you just really enjoy that quality, PC is still the best.
POM/Delrin often has a waxy or even bar-soap like quality (IMO). If that sounds awful, steer clear. But it can also have a soft feeling that I don’t get from PC (molded or machined).

I was in love with unresponsive yoyos for years and a couple of years ago I had just grown tired. A good friend turned me on to the 0A style and it was just like being a kid again (honestly, it still is.) I know that 0A is still niche in an already niche hobby, but I must say, to anyone reading this, it is very much worth checking it out. The cost of entry is cheap, a regular Duncan Butterfly is one of the best for this style.
And there are tons of awesome bearing yoyos that are setup to play responsive which work great for 0A too

I’ve not tried any others to compare it to but I think it’s a great yoyo that feels so silky smooth
