Duncan = <3

I'm really interested in that unreleased plastic... I'd also like if it had blank white caps (or white caps w/ the duncan logo) or clear caps w/ the duncan logo...

Zeros w/ blank white caps also sound good...

A wider plastic (Diameter doesn't quite matter) with white caps...

A Solid Turquoise zero, with white caps.

White or Clear caps available to buy....


Basically most of this has been mentioned several times before, mainly because most of, if not all, us want it that way.

-Jason S.

You want to know something odd? Once upon a time, caps WERE available to be bought from a certain webstore a number of years ago..
and then all of a sudden they just disappeared.

One more thing to add..

Ducan, PLEASE UPDATE YOUR STORE. The idea of the glitch with the shipping is just redicolous and makes me very angry.

Zammy ! I totally remember that store... It was Dave's Skilltoys, right ?

Man, I feel cool just for remembering that... Too bad they went under... I tried to order a Menehune and some other stuff when they were coming down, but I didn't...

If there are factory recesses you should be able to sili it easily

Regarding Factory Siliconed Models:
We understand/know everyone wants factory silicone recessed yo-yos. Myself included.
The average yo-yo buyer wants a yo-yo that "works". Notice I said Buyer, not Player. Siliconed yo-yos typically mean a dead unresponsive yo-yo. Even though select new models will be pad recessed, they will still be somewhat responsive. We would love to have factory siliconed yo-yos, but the problem is that if we do this, we will have MASSIVE amounts of returned yo-yos as they wont return to the hand. They will literally be "Broken". Not to mention the cost of automation to silicone the yo-yos.

But don't be discouraged. The yo-yo community's opinion DOES matter to us. And the amount of people suggesting siliconed yo-yos may help us create a new model that features a removable response area, that could be filled with silicone.

So lets keep the suggestions coming. I'm hearing lots of great ideas and suggestions from you guys and trust me, it matters to us!

@Jspeare. Correct, good that you remember the store name, I didn't want to say it due to being on here. But they used to sell them all the time.

Brandon I love you. Without you in duncan I am not sure the Screaming eagle and all these new projects would be coming way.
The fact your making such a impact in it is astounding!

Alright here we go:

Dice: Rubber and plastic, in a rainbow of colors. No clear, that takes value away from the legit rare ones that already exist.

yoyo (guts): Lets think about making a couple large bearing eddition yoyos. Also, think about getting rid of spacers and o-rings, possibly think Crucial or yoyojam like responces/bearing seat. Stock KK maybe? But deffinatly stick with pads.

NEW yoys: Delrin yoyo, think smaller in diameter than FHZ and also wider. Comes stock with pad responce, yoyojam type bearing seat, small and large bearing edditions (both KK). with a white Duncan Die to match yoyo. Oh, and simple but awesome artwork.

Just my two bits in on a company that deserves more love than it is getting right now.

I want translucent caps in different colors.

Along with translucent FHZ's in both regular clear, and different colors...

I agree that different color dice would be amazing, and rubber dice would be pretty awesome too. I personally wouldn't care if translucent dice were made again.

I don't really care for a sili-recess, because it'd likely raise the cost of the yoyos, and if I really wanted a sili-recess, I could just pay a modder to do it for me. Not a big deal at all...

.....Yep, that's about it. Cheesy

The best idea I have heard (not that others have not been great, but this was the best idea) is to NOT make clear die.  The clear die that are available are small in number and very sought after.  I think that making more of them cheapens the feel. 

On that not, I can't wait to see what Duncan provides, and what I really want while we are talking about counterweights are more character heads.  My Army for Mongu and Viking heads
