Makisushi is a special edition of the hugely popular Sushi, produced from the same CAD. Sushi remains one of my most cherished RSO releases - not only for its distinctive playfeel, but also for the way it brings together my love of sushi and Japanese culture.
From the beginning, Sushi was deliberately proportioned to resemble a slice cut from a sushi roll - known in Japanese as makizushi, or more commonly in English as makisushi. Makisushi returns to that original recipe in a different serving.
The anodized black cracked hard coat finish on Makisushi is reminiscent of the seaweed, or “nori”, used to wrap around the sushi rice. The “cracks” on Makisushi have a gold hue, in contrast to the ones on the Mecha-Viszilla SE Edition, which have a silver hue. Unfortunately, I could not make a larger run of Makisushi due to the high-risk nature of the anodization process.
Fun fact: Nori comes in different grades. As a general rule of thumb, the darker the colour, the better. Higher grades have a jet-black hue.
Makisushi will ship with the same components included with the raw Sushi run.
Note: Due to this yo-yo's anodized coating, the finish may wear if the caps and rings are repeatedly installed and removed. For the same reason, the caps and rings are also slightly tighter on Makisushi than its raw counterpart.
