are there any good looking looping yoyos ?

[Zoster]

i know "good looking" is a relative term, and the title is a bit provocative, buy pretty much all the looping yoys i've seen so far (and those aren't that many, since i got into yoyoing like 2 weeks ago) look like they were designed for kids ages 10 and below (compared to string-style yoyos which have a l;ot of sleek designes, including plasctic ones).

so, for the fun of it (and for my knowledge) post here any looping yoyos that you find good looking, not just "ok"....

thanks for taking a look!

Nearly all looping yoyos are going to be the same shape, the shape of a raider by yomega, that being said you will have too learn to like that shape. 

[Zoster]

i'm not referring to the shape

edit: or i guess the shape as well, to some extend..

You mean like decals?
I always liked the loop720's Jensen painted.

yeah, these look a lot better!

graphics in general, be it decals or paint or plastic color etc

I recently saw a pair of Higby painted loopers on here. They look awesome even with that deceivingly simple looking paintjob.

Sunsets with white pogs are pretty classy-looking.

[Schnayke]

I have three higby painted sunsets they are great looking.

I like the clean look of RecRev's REVERB looper and I think it's made of white Delrin.  However, I don't think it's out yet but I definitely want to get my hands on two of them to try out.

I think the early Raider logo looks awesome, the new one is just silly...

I just bought a pair of those Shaqler Loop900s at the BST last night!
Can't wait to get them in my hands :]

[Zoster]

yeah, was actually thinking of buying the shaqler edition of the 900s. they're far from stunning, but they're decent...

[Studio42]

I've been pretty happy the way things look straight from the factory.

Granted, modified shape yoyos aren't exactly exciting for the most part with graphics.

I have a pair of YYJ Unleashed yoyos, they look fine.

I want to get a pair of YYF Loop 900's and maybe a pair of Raiders later on. They look fine to me stock.

I love the look of the old Playmaxx Bees before Duncan replaced the caps with their own.
I just love bold opaque colours with white caps and hate translucent plastic. I don't know why but it just looks cheap to me.
I realise that this thread is about currently available yoyos but nearly all new loopers are made in China so regardless of what they look like, I prefer to buy old stock yoyos that were made in the US. Perhaps in the future, China will have a reputation for prestigeous quality manufacturing (like Japan now have) but right now it's all about the cheapest labour and economic product in my eyes. Also, when an American company shifts production to a far eastern country, I see this as an indication that the main focus of the company has changed from making the best possible product to making the most profit from that product. I would buy more loopers if Duncan / YYF offered a more expensive US made range alongside the cheaper Chinese ones.

[kuyaChristian]

I just got the Shaqler Loop900s on the mail a few days ago. Oh they look amazing when they're spinning :]
Beast right there. :3

[stephosh]

I love the looks of those!

I do get where Zoster is coming from. It would be cool to have an alloy looper with cool anno. I don't know, maybe there are some.

[yoyofactoryben]

Growler: unfortunately American vendors don't share your thoughts on quality. We have tooling for many models in both the USA and china and regardless of price get a better product from china most times.
we continue to try us vendors in the hope of creating a dual line but offering an inferior more expensive USA made version isn't something we will do.

Steph, look around , there are metal loopers out there. I'll sell you some new ones for $15, super high quality.

You wouldn't happen to be referring to the Aoda Light of Five Stars. If so, I'm really curious to hear how they play.
