From yoyorewind.com:
"Turning Point - Mortal 2023 with Jun Aramaki signed photo card.
Undersized, Jun Aramaki signature bimetal model.
One postcard autographed by Jun will be included with each shipment.
This is the second Turning Point model featuring our staff member, Jun Aramaki. This model is a complete change from the previous Ensemble model, and is an undersized bimetal yo-yo designed for use in the 1A.
In fact, this model is based on a prototype that was produced in small quantities at Turning Point, but with a lot of respect for Dr. Mo (2001-2003 World Mod Contest Winner) and his signature model Mini Mo-Trix series.
Therefore, Dr. Mo and his former Team Yo-Yo Jam teammate Jun Aramaki, who preferred larger yo-yos for the 3A and smaller, more maneuverable yo-yos for the 1A, were offered the opportunity to develop a signature model.
The wide rim, reminiscent of Jun's favorite yo-yo Mini Mo-Tu provides powerful rotation and sleep extension despite its small size. The 48mm-diameter body is close to the limit of normal use as a string trick yo-yo. Once you feel its toughness, which is hard to imagine from its small size, you will want to try the complex and detailed string tricks that only this size can offer.
As with the 'Mini Mo-Trix' series, a cap can be mounted on the side face.."
From Jun Aramaki's blog:
"My signature model "Mortal" was released from Turning Point.
The new color (2nd lot) is now on sale in Rewind. Two colors: teal and orange.
This time it comes with a side cap. Clear white print.
Yo-Yo Jam's yo-yo "Mini Motsu", which is the source of inspiration, and its signature lord, Dr. This is a collaboration version made in honor of Mr. Mo.
By the way, the design of the cap was hand-drawn by me, and I wanted it to have a YoYoJam-like feel, so the lines are rickety, but the area is charming!
Thank you to those who have already picked it up!
I'm curious... If you are thinking, thank you!"
