For those of you who haven’t seen the latest news, the pouches are in now. I think the pouches were one of the the last things they needed, to ship out the first batch of 100. After the yo-yos are hand tested, they should be on their way.
Two words:
Suh!

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!! ;D
I think he’s trying to convey that they’re making such a big deal about these first hundred being hand tested, when in reality they all should be.
Ah, true. I see where you guys are coming from then.
You are exactly right. Most of those who made a purchase have been keeping up with the Facebook posts and other updates. I read that the first 100 will be hand tested, and you will find out specifically who hand tested it (at YoyoFactory). The rest will be hand tested at the factory where they are made, before they are packaged and shipped. The only reason is that they will come packaged differently. They will all be hand tested. Boom.
The wait is over! Here is what’s new on Instagram from YYF,
I also asked when tracking numbers will be sent out, YYF replied with “After we get all the boxes out the door.”
^ Thanks for the update LeDave. That photo looks awesome! I’m zooming in on the boxes, they look crazy! :o ;D
Alright first things first. Easter eggs. What’s that yoyo in the top left on the table? A brown blue shutter?
Looks like a david ung shutter to me
A very special thanks to YoyoFactory, Ben McPhee, Cory Hendon, Gentry Stein, absolutely everyone who was part of the project for making my…
DREAMS come true! This was the best birthday week ever! I spotted a few extras in the box. Blue #4 (to match my Ricochet #4), brushed #52 (even number as specially requested), and an unnumbered production packaged Dream. YoyoFactory is the best ever. I haven’t opened them yet. ;D

I’m so jealous.
I never get jealous seeing people getting new yoyos in fact I’m happy. But this is first time whenever I see dream packs I’m like a roasted potato of jealousy. Lol.
The plastic Dream looks luscious.
It really is. I was surprised how much fun it is to play. Better than either the Northstar or Protostar IMO. I wouldn’t even bother calling it a design based off the Dream, though. It’s its own beast.
Got 007, the blemish is much less noticeable in person, especially if fingerprints are left all over it like they usually will be, so I’m pretty pumped about having an awesome number.
Interestingly, one of the two big dreams I was supposed to get played a disappearing act. I thought I saw two when I initially opened the box, but now I can’t find one anywhere near where I opened it. Hmm. Regardless, it seems an extra gold CT appeared in its place, so I don’t mind if the big dream ever reappears.
Anyways, outstanding job Ben and everybody else involved with this, the throws are terrific.
Got mine today, blue number 21, brushed one without number, 2 gold dream aluminum, 2 big plastic dream yoyos yoyos, pouches, ctx gold bearing and for the mystery yoyo a prototype
MINE ARRIVED…
In Los Angeles.
Won’t be in Canada until next week sometime.
the greenish one is the prototype?
It has that solid feel that I like, and it’s got some power. This is no dainty throw. I can always trust YoyoFactory to give me that. It plays amazing.This blue #4 is so exceptionally smooth too. ;D
