I agree with the first review. It is a very heavy yoyo. I bought this yoyo at a local store and not on yoyo expert, but I felt the need to share this review somewhere. It is a very cool yoyo to possess but I don’t really enjoy throwing it. It is so heavy that it feels like the yoyo slips and ends with a thud similar to how the first reviewer described it. You have to take care in throwing it so that it does not slip and just have the “thud” feeling at the end. I also agree that if I would go back and time and advise myself not to buy this yoyo. I don’t play with it because I don’t like how it feels and I’m afraid of hitting myself or anything else for that matter with how heavy the yoyo feels. I didn’t know where else to put this review so I went to Yoyo expert to write it. I hate to write a negative review for this one because I do like the regular shutter and I love Gentry, but this yoyo is now just a cool collector’s item for me.

honestly, when I first got it I was majorly disappointed.
HOWEVER, after a while I pulled it out again and it has become a really enjoyable throw for me. as the last person said it is a bit heavy and in my opinion it is also slightly lacking in spin times.
Overall, it's a fun little thing that is a bit overpriced for what you get.

I got one from the first release--I was drawn to the numbered limited-edition collectibility marketing angle. Honestly, I would not advise my past self to get it. I suppose it's fun to have a small stainless steel throw and the miniaturized Shutter profile is a classic shape, but it arrives at the end of the string with a disconcerting thump and plays with usual deficits that small yo-yos tend to have in terms of spin time, stability, and unforgiving catch zones. The weight-to-volume ratio is disconcertingly high. This won't do anything better than even low-priced but well-made mono-metals, but if you buy yo-yos for their stylistic lineage, appearance, or the story behind them, you might find this worth its steep price.
