V shape = lighter weight. Either it has to be made of Gold (or something just as heavy) or be bigger (which isn’t what we are going for). Either way it will cost more (see above comments)
Hey, Ben, if you guys ever make a Mighty Flea V3, you should consider basing it’s shape on one of your more rim-weighted, v-shaped models, like the Super or Protostar. The current model is fun to play with, but MAN is that highwall punishing.
it is the same price difference between a full sized hubstacked and non-hubstacked YYF yo-yo. Because it is smaller that means the parts and machining will cost less?
Dont get me wrong im excited about it and would LOVE to have one but im just not going to spend 80 bucks for a yoyo that will never be a daily player. not a yoyo i would play with on a constant basis.
I think it’s kind of funny how everyone seemed to really want the G.5’s, but when YYF makes a brand new premium hubstacked mini, everyone seems to yell, “Too pricey! Too pricey!”
…
Then again, this and last year has been kind of a revolution in yoyo pricing, so I guess it goes both ways. Either way, I’m sure there are people totally psyched about this.
Strangely, it appears to be a tad cheaper to buy it from overseas, despite the weak dollar. 50 euros at Yoyoz comes out to approx $67. Still steep, but better.

That price is ridiculous. They will probably be on the BST in a few months for half that.

Too expensive, I would never buy it.

Oh, whoops, thanks for the correction. I got my currency symbols mixed up. Sorry if I got anyone’s hopes up.
