I am interested in the plastic version, but a tad concerned about wear and tear (especially the wear aspect). The puzzles get hours of play! Internally are the pins (or pin singular perhaps?) plastic?
I like the fact that the shaft won't come out having had an accident with a pin disappearing down the back of a sofa

Re: Plastic Revo Design
We have had one for a a few weeks and it has been at my mothers 80th party with loads of kids and clumsy adults. It still works fine giving a positive click.
The precision engineering and the design make it so reliable and smooth.
It is not a match on the metal - but between them, the plastic has been dropped many times without a flinch.
We am arranging some testing with Kids and some forum members who will report back.
I am very confident. ReVoMate has one so can be an independent on this.
Kind regards
Chris

Re: Plastic Revo Design
Just checked the website. I love the range of colours.
*edit*
Might send it to my uncle at his school and ask him to pass it around the classes.

Re: Plastic Revo Design
What are the mazes in these extreme versions like?
Are they the same as the metal RevoMazes?
Or are they new/different?
The name "RevoRed" has most of us shivering already, I assume this plastic 'red' maze is not the same?

Re: Plastic Revo Design
They are similar Blue (but easier) Green & Black (with some adjustments) but the Red is a new design I am putting forward (about as hard as the Bronze).
They are High quality "Machined" not moulded and have a great feel to them. The shaft cannot be removed without destroying it.
They do not form part of the main competition but may encourage others to try. There is a separate rewards planned.
We are aiming at the Family so all ages can have a go. If you have the metal versions - the two that I would recommend is the Black and Red. We are also doing some limited edition Red and Blue Sleeves.
I am amazed how many have already pre-ordered!
ReVoMate has one and says its great in the hand and does not hurt his wrist (he broke) so looks promising!

Re: Plastic Revo Design
Hi RevoRabbit
Only 4 at the moment - but why not have a a user designed one? Maybe ...
We could have 10 designs - but we will wait and see
Cheers

Re: Plastic Revo Design
Good to see you folks again. I miss the forum. I am traveling way too much.
Is the body of the plastic Revomaze plastic as well? it looks exactly like the metal puzzles.

Re: Plastic Revo Design
Yup, it's all plastic. When Chris sent me one, I had to tap it on my desk to make sure it wasn't metal. It looks exactly like the ReVoBlack. In fact, I think it is more addictive. All light and clicky yet VERY well made! Haha!

Re: Plastic Revo Design
I am very anxious to try a plastic revomaze...i think its pretty cool....the metal puzzles are the overall "coolest" but these should be really awesome especially for kids
The hardest part of a Revomaze is putting it down
