Description
Sturm Panzer - SY-003/6 Schneider MK-II
Sturm Panzer's first Stainless Rim model.
From the Maker:
Sturm Panzer vs. Revol Bible, round three! Sturm Panzer's Reita Sugo is up against Ryosuke Shiozome, whose mysterious "laceration" style is able to rip his opponents to shreds using blade-like wind attacks. To give Reita a fighting chance, Kasumi Hino has lifted the ban on one of Schneider's capabilities.
Using the E-Field Generator, Reita transforms the Schneider into "Blade Attack Mode," which gives him an energy shield that lets him deflect the laceration attacks, and a new "Laser Blade" function that will let him slice right through Shizome.
"Just don't go overboard with it and really kill him!" warns Kasumi.
Distrustful of Kasumi, Reita unleashes Schneider's secret weapon, the Return of the Jager against Shizome! Will it be effective? Stay tuned to find out!

The Schneider MK-II is an evolution of the first edition Schneider, in full Blade Attack Mode. Unlike the Schneider series up until now, MK-II utilizes ultra hard and durable 7075 aluminum for the body, and is outfitted with Sturm Panzer's first stainless steel outer rim. Using a size D bearing, the MK-II is a middle size throw weighing in at 62 grams (on the light side), with every part optimized for maximum performance.
Compared to the other Sturm Panzer model loaded with a size D bearing, the Leo Sniper MK-II which had a large gap and inverse round shape, the Schneider MK-II has a gap 0.3mm narrower, and the response area is 0.2mm deeper, which gives the player a more refined sense of stability and control. These small design changes have a big impact on how the yo-yo plays, showing Sturm Panzer's intense attention to details. Especially the decision to use a size D bearing, which complements the size and weight balance perfectly, and upends the current trends that favor size C bearings exclusively. An interesting development of this design decision is that by doing extra string wraps around the bearing, you can taste another dimension of the MK-II's power. This is the benchmark against which size D yo-yos should be held.
This masterpiece sets the bar to new heights.
