The Duncan Freehand Mg is a variant of the famed FH Zero in the De-Luxxe series, made from 99.5% forged 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 wooden box with a limited edition silver/black Duncan Character counterweight set. Ceramic ball bearing axle, take-apart design, spacers for adjusting the string gap, Friction Sticker response system (the yo-yo comes with a set of four of these).
The Freehand Mg originally retailed for $400-450. However, as of 2013, Duncan has begun to sell a "Barebones Edition" of the Freehand Mg for $200, which is the same yo-yo without the deluxe wooden box. Also, this version has been modified to accommodate SG Sticker response, along with the inclusion of a random, limited edition black/white Duncan Character counterweight. It also comes with a Size C KonKave bearing licensed by Dif-E-Yo for use in the yo-yo.
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 makes the Mg more pricey:
- Expensive, between $450 and $750
- Harder to work with than aluminum
- WARNING: Flammable in powder form!
