Monkeys_revenge Posted August 7, 2003 Posted August 7, 2003 I just got some of these astrojack things I saw in the store. There pretty fun. But I only can do one thing... got any tips, pointers, or thoughts about these things?
Zen Posted August 7, 2003 Posted August 7, 2003 I think that there just another little attempt at a fad, like x-brain yo-yos back a few years ago.
Semjaza Posted August 7, 2003 Posted August 7, 2003 What the hell is an astrojack? Makes me think of balls and jacks... Twosies! I hope that's not what it is heh.
Baron Samedi Posted August 7, 2003 Posted August 7, 2003 They're like three balls on different ends of 3 elasticised rubbery string stuff. Ive seen the Ads!! =). I havnt seen them IRL though. So im sorry, no help there. *******EDIT******** Taylor hewitt, you are making [i]extremely[/i] spammy posts. It would be a good idea to stop. I am [i]not[/i] making a spammy post by editing... try it *****EDIT******
Monkeys_revenge Posted August 7, 2003 Author Posted August 7, 2003 Oops, a couple minutes ago I smaked my brother in the head with one of the balls o_O. He deserved it anyway:P, he was hitting me in a VERY sensiteve spot . (sorry I shared that)
Guest Taylor Hewitt Posted August 8, 2003 Posted August 8, 2003 Whoa. I used to be into those special yo-yos before. I had an x brain or something. It was like 20 or 30 bucks. Mr.Monkeys Revenge, You have just wasted your money. :) But it you enjoy it that's all that matters.
Monkeys_revenge Posted August 8, 2003 Author Posted August 8, 2003 I didn't pay for it ^_^. I had a gift certificate for KB.
Guest Taylor Hewitt Posted August 8, 2003 Posted August 8, 2003 Mr.Monkeys_Revenge, You have just wasted a gift cirtificate for KB (watever that is). But as long as you enjoy it, that's all that matters.
Guest dayday Posted August 8, 2003 Posted August 8, 2003 Find a trick book and learn from what's it in. And how to hit your brother in his sensitive spot without being seen. That might be a good one to learn.
embersky_gemini Posted August 8, 2003 Posted August 8, 2003 Those are fun to take to raves or any party that is in a dark area/outside. Even if you can't do anything w/them, people will keep asking you to play with them or feel jealous that they don't have any lighted novelty to show off. You might learn a few tips from someone too.

[/B][/QUOTE]How the hell did you remember those things? :eek: I was fully into them. They were green, red or blue, and had clogs and stuff in them which you could see from the outside, and they'd make a noise when you made them "walk". They were so awesome! I remember I lost mine for a while, and was shattered. I found it again, and then a while later it broke a bit and wouldn't work properly, and eventually it broke totally, like it fell apart and I lost a part(s) from it. They were so cool. I'm going to go see if I can find one lying around the house (my brother's had one too I think). Astrojacks. I've seen the advertisments. I've seen the signs. Really, to me, they seem like one of these fad things that are trying to start out, like the DBZDiscs, those BeyBlade things, and the ODD-BODD Cards.. maybe they might go as high as Pokemon Cards. :drunk:
Guest spiderham Posted August 9, 2003 Posted August 9, 2003 i dont even think astrojacks are gonna b a fad but enjoy them any ways Monkeys_revenge and by the way Taylor Hewitt kb is a chain toy store like toys'r'us
Baron Samedi Posted August 10, 2003 Posted August 10, 2003 So, have you figured out how to get them going yet? I wouldn't.... i am generally pathetic with things like that. 1)) i dont try. 2)i dont care 3)I have better things to do (i.e. OB). They look like fun. Are they difficult to use?
Monkeys_revenge Posted August 10, 2003 Author Posted August 10, 2003 I figured out a couple tricks. There not really hard, if you hold one of the balls and bounce it up and down (sorry, that didn't sound right) it does a so called "Vertical orbit". And if you jerk it side to side it does a "Butterfly".
stardust Posted August 11, 2003 Posted August 11, 2003 You've never been to my school,we have a new fad every day,lol.We had yo-yos,pokemon cards,gameboys,and benie babies,gigapets--you name it,it was banned. Lol,I once got yelled at for playing w/ a yo-yo at inside recess,I hated that teacher,and of course I got her the next year...anyways... I rather like those Astrojacks,my friend bought some over. After about 5 minutes I was throwing the thing all over the place and catching it with one hand,it's cake.
