I, too, have finally got around to acquiring a Sleipnir. Mine is an authentic red “Take That” edition Sleipnir, and it is incredible.
I normally try to avoid quoting pics but that particular yo-yo has been pirated.
The one you have is indeed a real YYR Sleipnir.
Nice score. 
Also been meaning to get my hands on a Sleipnir for ages, and finally…
…I still haven’t got one. =P
I have a Gleipnir though, which I love. Not really sure how the two compare in play…
^that.
I wished i returned to yoyoing a little quicker. At least i could’ve acquired a Sleipnir when it was part of a lucky box, or when it was at $75.
I was praying to find a Sleipnir in my box but I don’t think many of them were in the last lucky boxes. The first ones maybe, but the last lot just seemed to be shifting old stock of Dreadnought Gs =P
I wonder how the Krown compares, considering it’s Shinya’s new throw…
Enthusiasts to sleipnir? ;D
I think the yoyorecreation with spec. more “universal” of all … however is not my favorite recreation.
this is my 1st run with M5 axle
opssss… :
Good guy me trades away my real sleipnir for Sanchez’s Blink. I’m loving the blink by the way don’t regret a thing ;D
I aquired a raw blink the other day in trade for my Dreadnaught G and I absolutely love it. Stability is fantastic for a smaller diameter yoyo, it’s a serious player. =D
Really hoping to get my hands on a Draupnir. Checking their site ever single day but as yet, nothing…
So lucky, that Blink looks amazing…
If anyone wants to trade an Attune, Blink, Stargazer or Mr. Butcher for a 6, unknown rare 7075 Japanese prototype, or '09 Sleipnir, you know where to find me.
The only YYR I have on your wants list is the Attune, and it is my favorite of the 10 YYRs I have. I would have traded my 6 for the sleipner, but it is one you already have. Oh well.
Anyone looking for an Overdrive? Shoot me a PM.
To add to the discussion : super impressed with the gleipnir.
Darn, I want an Overdrive, but my hands are full this month and the next.
@SlimJoe, i’ll send you PM if you still have the Overdrive by Nats (October).
Moving on, can anyone provide a list of extra-rare YYR?
e.g. Purple bead-blasted Messiah, etc.

draupnir on sale now! 
Oh man they look sweet!! Too bad I am tapped out on yoyo buys for a few weeks. I would like an ano’d one…
^Red ano! I’m still waiting for mine.
They’re only selling the raw version though.
Who’s getting one?
I do not.
I am sure that very plays fine but is too expensive, too many customs fees … and little “yyr family feeling” for me.
The raw ones are cool but I can’t spend that much on a raw yoyo. I played one at Worlds though and I will get one. Just not yet. I would like to see purple. But gold, pink or clear would do…
Same here, waiting on a colored one.
Or gunmetal grey.
