All yo-yos have passed the manufacturer's quality inspection. Quality standards vary by manufacturer. Basically, products that can be used normally are within product specifications.
Examples of possible initial defects
if the following symptoms occur immediately after opening, they may be initial defects:
(Bind models only) The bearing barely rotates even when flicked with a finger.
Even after dampening vibrations with a finger during play, the yo-yo vibrates so much that its shape appears distorted.
Parts that should be installed (bearings, pads) are not installed.
Examples that do not constitute initial defects
Package damage
Color differences from expectations
Bearing noise or bind model return issues that occur after even a few plays
Yo-yos that arrived properly assembled but cannot be reassembled after disassembly
Scratches on the inside of the bearing area, paint chips
Color variations on the yo-yo that are not noticeable from a distance
Paint chips that are not noticeable from a distance
Scratches on the yo-yo that are not noticeable from a distance and barely detectable by touch
Minor rust on bearing surfaces of models that come pre-strung in the package (minor external rust has almost no impact on performance)
This renewal model features 7075 aluminum alloy paired with machined POM Plastic.
The side face features the artwork of Yukiko's business card from storybook 7 in the STURM PANZER companion series. The design combines 7075 aircraft aluminum with POM plastic, making this a very eye catching multi-material design. It was originally designed in 2015, but the design was very difficult to manufacture at the time, and so only a handful were produced. Since then, Sturm Panzer has upgraded to a manufacturing facility that specializes in yo-yos. They've upgraded the locking mechanism for the POM cowl, and now are able to engrave their design onto both side faces.
The RY-007 is a 7075 aluminum body covered with a POM plastic cowl, leaving some empty space between the two materials by design. This allows them to control the weight distribution without changing the outer shape of the yo-yo, improving stability during play and even when the yo-yo is off-axis. The soft texture of POM is a nice added bonus.
The RY-007 utilizes a size D bearing, giving the YUKIKO plenty of power, surpassing even the bimetal Leo Sniper series in this regard.
Set includes:
Sturm Panzer Storybook #7 (A5 size, 34 pages)
RY-007 YUKIKO
Spare response pads x2
Maker Comment:
The bearing is a CP-06 9-ball bearing. If you wish to power-up your RY-007, we suggest you change out the bearing for a Dif-e-Yo Konkave bearing of the same size. Please note that you take responsibility for modifying your yo-yo.
The response pads are the CP-09 Blade Attack (Economy) pads. We've included a couple of spares with the yo-yo.
Any marks, blemishes, or imperfections are a result of the manufacturing process, and have been tested to ensure they do not affect performance.
