The Freehand Mg was a magnesium bodied version of the Freehand. These were released in a powdercoat and anodized finish. It originally was packaged in a deluxe wooden box with a limited-edition silver/black (or white/black) Duncan character counterweight set for 5A play. It also has a ceramic ball bearing, take-apart design, spacers for adjusting the string gap, and Friction Sticker response (the yo-yo comes with a set of four stickers). In 2013 Duncan released a Barebones version, with just the yoyo and a black/white counterweight dice. The Barebones edition featured recessed pads. The Duncan Mg was produced from 2004 until 2014.
