Am I the only one whos actually not dissapointed about the popstar? When I had a popstar I actually liked mine, plus its just a free yoyo, because we really bought it for the unreleased yoyo, right? It also comes with custom engravings and in some cool colors.
The engraving is amazing. I love the popstar it’s a novelty

I was hoping for b-grade G-funks or something. I love the G-funk and think more people should own one.
The Popstar, not so much…
I’m not TOO upset, but it will depend on what color Popstar I get.
The Cypher is just ‘okay’. I get what they’re going for. A super cheap bell/h-shaped yoyo that’s all metal. Pretty much fits in to what is popular right now (Organic H-shapes, bell shapes, etc.) but at a cheap price point.
Hard to be super excited about the Cypher when you have a Cascade, or tooHOT, or even a WM2.
I think it’s safe to assume that the Cypher will be the budget stand in for beginners that want a TooHOT but don’t quite want to drop 50 dollars for one. (+whatever the extra charge will be for the cool colorways.)
At least the Cypher looks like it won’t cut your face open.
Someone’s really down on a mystery pack he hasn’t even received yet…
FYI the Cypher isn’t some cheapo bell shaped tier 2 throw. When released it’ll actually cost more than this entire box. It’s not the TooHots lil bro. More like its super competitive cousin. You’re disappointed in a throw you haven’t even held yet. If it turns out you don’t like it after you’ve tried it, you can just send it along to me.

I’m a weirdo. I can see the shape of a throw and know immediately whether or not I’ll like it. Even before I throw it.
The real determining factor is how it will feel in my hand, but I really dislike the blue color, so chances are I just won’t like it based on the color alone. Fickle, right? I’m aware… I was expecting these to be black because of the teaser images.
Maybe I will just pass it along to someone else! We’ll see. I’m a fan of your videos, so it’s not a far stretch.

Its all a matter of opinion but I must say I’ve been blown away by throws that didn’t seem like they would play well. Hand comfort is important to me too but the subtle design aspects that make it floaty, stable, smooth, solid, etc is something I can’t predict on just a picture. Now im sure some could by looking at CAD drawings and specs. so as they say, “you don’t know till try it”.
Thanks for posting pics! The shape of the cypher looks a lot like my magic yoyo n12, so i think i will feel right at home. The real question is, How did you get it so quickly, do you live in MA?

I agree it does look like an n12. Which is by far the best myy.

I’m half an hour from YYE
That’s exactly what I thought too, it looks like the N12 (which I love). Can’t wait to get mine tomorrow.

Totally. I’m still giving it a fair shot once it arrives, but my intuition at the moment isn’t super excited.
Does anyone know the rough specs? Or at least the diameter of the Cypher?
Same specs as the shutter basicly
Edit: Fifty Five Point Four MM (Millimeters)
Did Andre just like drive up to your house lol?
I am not a big fan of the PopStar but it looks cool in this picture.

It’s so funny to watch you get panty twisted about someone getting panty twisted over people getting panty twisted.
Cry baby about cry baby about cry babies.
