The Duncan Freehand Mg is a Freehand Zero made from 99.5% Magnesium with 0.5% other elements to stabilize and harden the metal. The color is either powder coated (glossy) or anodized (matte) over the Magnesium body.
It originally was packaged in a deluxe box wooden box with a special silver counterweight set. Bearing axle, take-apart design, gap adjustable with spacers, Friction Sticker response.
The Freehand Mg originally retailed for $400-450. However, as of 2013 Duncan has begun to sell a "bare bones" Freehand Mg for $200, which is the same yo-yo without the deluxe wooden box packaging. Also, this version has been modified to accomodate for recessed pad response.
The initial releases of the Mg were either powdercoated red or matte silver. Later colors produced include powdercoated blue and green, as well as matte black.
Magnesium has some characteristics that make the Mg more expensive:
- Expensive $450 - $750
- Harder to work with than aluminum
- Flammable in powder form
