> [@GoCrazyForYoyo](#): > > Shai, I wasn’t coming at you. Things like color not just color are things that ya often have strong opinions on. I didn’t say you weren’t helpful at all. I merely pointed out that the studio42 comparison isn’t exactly accurate. You’re very different in you’re own ways. You’re reviews are great and you’re BST is very detailed. Just ignore any nice thing I have to say about you though. It’s much easier to take offense. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/5/a/85a3ce7de241d157fe6eea6eba8f2ee8778c8288.jpeg) ---

^ Props for not taking lé bait. I too would love to see a few more blasted colours (especially purple). It’s a shame that you see so little blasting on YYR models, and Japanese models as a whole. :-\ ---

Phasers and the new Anglam CC dropped this morning. I estimate they released about 100 of each, possibly slightly more. I don’t see them selling out any time soon. Phaser released in red and yellow. Both are beautiful (not going down that road again lol) but I bought a red one. Anglam CC released in emerald green and blue with red splash. Haven’t decided whether I’m getting one of these yet, but good news–it now uses stainless steel rings instead of 7075. For some reason sOMETHING shrunk the trapeze width on both of these, which I found a little disappointing. I guess they wanted extreme rim weight for stability and horizontal trickiness. The price is relatively good, too–19800 yen at Japanese sites, more at sites priced in USD–$210 at one international site and $240 at another. This is the only image I could find not hosted by a store.

I thought the Phaser was supposed to be titanium? Hopefully it plays with a touch more soul and fun than the Anglams I’ve encountered. ---

> [@sparhawk](#): > > Phaser looks like a metal crazy d which is my all time favorite plastic throw > > Might have to sell my tirade and buy one 😛 Yeah Crazy-D is based on Superfly Remix and Phaser is based on Superfly Remix. There are some significant changes to the specs and shape, though. Same with the Anglam CC, though the changes aren’t as severe. I’d love to know how the new Anglam CC compares to the Anglam. I still have never played one. Phaser was never supposed to be titanium. That rumor was started based on Mickey’s super special titanium Anglam he developed with Louis Vuitton. That yo-yo is titanium and likely expensive as heck. I doubt it will ever be put into mass production, but who knows?

It’s basically just the “Japanese yo-yo appreciation thread.” At least that’s how I see it. Some of us have tried making other specific brand threads like “Yoyomonster appreciation thread” but it got no traffic. So I just talk about all Japanese yo-yos in this thread and so do others. You’ll note I mentioned YYR released new Diffusion 2 colors…if they release something else I’m all over it, but right now other companies are dropping more fancy bi-metals. 🙂 ---
