1st impression: It's a new and improved superstar. Its more angular, but the feel definitely reminds me of the superstar (which is by no means a bad thing).

Play: Dead smooth and stable. This is by far the most stable yoyo I have thrown. Between the center trac bearing and the insane rim weight, you almost have to try to get it to tilt on you. Even after multiple reps of a braintwister/gerbil combo it just spins like you just landed a trapeze. Spin time is very impressive, after a couple chained combos I never feel rushed to return it.

Grinds: This is the only part that is kinda lacking. Definately not the best grinder, i would imagine that any sort of humidity would prevent any grinding.

Final thoughts: I was initially worried about an uncomfortable catch, but the flatter rims are actually easier on the hands than the superstar. I really was impressed by how stable and smooth it is. If you liked the superstar you will like this even better. Also, a really cool feature of the wide gap is that you can pick out most knots without taking the yoyo apart.

Thanks for the review. The superstar is one of my favorite yoyos, wasn't too sure about the MVP though. Don't forget to tell us what the surprise goodies are. ;)

~yo! shi!

Superstar looks better in every way, IMO. I wouldn't know about play on the MVP, but the SS played pretty hot for me.
