The Coolest Myachi of All Time?

by Crazy Ivan

Hard to say which is the best jamming Myachi of all time.  Even harder to say which is the best looking.  And at this moment I would be hard pressed to say which is the coolest.  Hopefully that will change in the next few weeks.

There's a Myachi in the works right now that should take that title hands down.

Now, when I say "in the works", I mean that it is at its earliest stage of development.  Kid Myach and Adrian K are working now on presenting a design to the customer so there are still a lot of steps between now and the finished product.  After that we'll have to settle on a fabric, we'll have to make samples, we'll have to approve them before we send the order into full production, then we have to wait on the delivery.

Knowing that, you may wonder how I could possibly claim that this might be the "coolest" Myachi of all time.  After all, I don't know what it will look like and I don't know how good of a jammer it will be.  In truth, none of that matters.  Okay, well... I guess it matters, but even if it doesn't look cool (which it will) and doesn't jam well (which it will), the story behind its production goes a long way toward cementing it as the coolest sack we've ever made.

The whole concept first arose a little over a week ago when Myachi Veteran (and forum favorite) DGH posted a thread on our forum in which he outlined an idea he had for a Myachi.  Since our forum consists of a pretty tightly knit community, he wanted a Myachi that would commemorate all the members that help make it such a fun place to hang out.

Of course, making Myachis costs money so that was the first issue he had to tackle and his solution is what is making it so incredibly cool.  His idea was to have all the various members of the forum kick in what they could to make it a reality.  Then, once the Myachi was produced, each contributor would receive a percentage of the total order that corresponded to the percentage of the production cost they threw in.  In other words, if you put in 10% of the money, you'd get 10% of the Myachis once they were made.

Pinky was the first Myachi Master to happen across the post (actually, it was more like she got a text from MMFL about it than she happened across it) and once she did she embraced the idea fully.  She talked with Kid, Myachi Man and myself and we set about making it happen.

Obviously there will be some hurdles to overcome but as of today we're pushing forward, full steam ahead.  Kid is in the process of getting the design approved and then we'll be waiting for the individual contributions to come in.  Once we've received half of them, the Myachi will go into production and hopefully it will be getting delivered about the same time that we're getting the last of the money.

Given the special circumstance, Kid Myach really did some back flips to make sure that we're getting these guys the best possible price and the best possible jammer as well.  We'll be extending to them what will doubtless be the lowest price ever on a customized Myachi, but given the circumstances I'm really glad that we could.

Once we have drafts, pics or updated new about it I'll post more but for now it'll have to be enough to know that the Myachi with the coolest origin story in history is on its way.
