Do you know if you have a bunch of those yyj caps? Since you posted it here im assuming you want value on them and the value would be alot more if you have some of those caps. I havent seen a jambo since 14 virginia states, it was AJ Kirks RIP.
Looking to get an idea of what this MMC is worth. Not sure of the colorway, the finish has a chauky feel to it (is this what soda last feels like). It is mint with box and extra brass side effects. I believe I am the second owner.
This is the second version from 2007, there was a sour taste for theses due to the 2006 versions stripping, but it was also Duncanâs early attempts at Aluminum. Its unopen so it is more a collectable for a mature buyer. I personally like this version and call it a âPoor Mans YWETâ but to make it playable you need a Dif-E-Yo KonKave A bearing and thats extra cost for novelty. I buy them when I can get them under $15 with shipping. On the Auction site you might get up to $40 if you are patient, but youâll also have fees. They donât have OG Freehand desirability, even though they are in the lineup. These are responsive out of the package. But the counterweights are cool.
Thank you for the break down and history on this. I got it cheap so I wanted to make sure I wasnât destroying a piece of history by opening it. I want to play these counterweights but I am torn on opening it. 5A with a responsive yoyo sounds like a disaster for me. I already have a bad history with looping haha.
Yeah, youâll need to do a little work to make it play unresponsive like the newer stickers and a new Konkave bearing. This has the old friction stickers in it an they wear out with play and youâll eventually hit a sweet spot, and then they donât work at all. The Duncan Bouncy Ball is one of my favorite counterweights. If you got it cheap then I wouldnât feel guilty just playing it, unless you are a mature collector who wants to look at it on a shelf next to an OG Freehand in package.
If you do open it up and play it, I recommend putting some thin lube on the axle threads so you dont strip it, Itâs cheap aluminum with a long axle.

Thereâs a raw mechabapezilla on the bst for $260 right now thatâs been up for a bit now, so I would imagine that would be the floor of what you could ask for since the OG edition is rarer. I would probably start at $350 and then slowly bump down but thatâs just me.
Iâve got an old Sakura edition onestar that I was wondering what the worth would be? no box, clean no mand made marks or dings, but there is this teeny tiny yellow production mark thatâs hard to see in the last photo.
15 bucks tops. Thatâs what I sold an identical one with box for. Really cool edition but itâs still just a Onestar at the end of the day, not exactly a collectible or sought after yoyo.
