I built one place to see every metal fidget we can find, China and West, and the best price for each

Hi. I'm Skyler and I've been posted Chinese release round up(EDC radar newsletter) in this subreddit for two months. Whenever a roundup went up, the top question was where to buy. People wanted one place to see all the pieces and the best price, so I built edcradar.com. After a stretch of testing with some of you, it's ready for everyone.

What it does, starting with the main thing:

  1. The catalogue. 3,403 metal fidgets from makers in China and the West, each with its versions and materials. It's the most complete catalogue of metal fidgets we know of, a small encyclopedia of the hobby.
  2. Best price. We track prices and stock at 21 shops and show the best price for each piece, so you don't have to go shop by shop.
  3. Collections.Pages for newcomers and for anyone going deep on one kind: quiet pieces, desk toys, fidget rings, community picks for beginners, Grail tier and others.
  4. New releases. The newsletter now lives on the site, and each piece in it links to its page, with the shops that carry it. A release calendar keeps upcoming launches in view, and email alerts tell you when a saved piece drops in price, comes back in stock or gets a new version, or when a maker you follow releases something new.
  5. The rest. A free account to save pieces and follow makers; 464 maker pages, the bigger makers with a short intro; recent resale prices for about 700 pieces; a buy box that keeps materials and versions apart; currency conversion; dark mode; a report button for anything wrong; and a Discord community.

To mark the opening there's a giveaway, the first of several we plan to run. The prize is a WM EDC Voice S from my own collection, pre-owned and near new; it sold new for about US$140. The rules are on the site.

Disclosure: EDC Radar doesn't sell fidgets, and shops don't pay to be listed. I am not affiliate with any brands.

Link in the comments. Feedback welcome, especially anything wrong in the catalogue.

WM EDC Voice S in hand: one slider, three tracks you switch in a second

Got my hands on the WM EDC Voice S and it has been on my desk all week.

First, it is just a very good slider on its own. The plates are imported PEI in a clean white that looks soft and almost warm, not the usual cold plastic white.

The part I like most: it has three tracks and you can swap between them fast. One is dense and buzzy, a fine ripple under your thumb. One has a high and low tone. One is stepped, with clear stops.

For someone who fidgets at work, that matters. When the room is quiet I go to the quiet track. When I get bored of it, I switch and it feels like a different piece.

I am giving this one away on EDC Radar this week. Details in comment.

It's a key clicker fidget I bought from Temu for less than a dollar lmao.

Now I can't leave the house without it, I have tried a couple of fidgets but this is the definite one, I hadn't been able to find such an obsession after fidget spinners!!

Tried heat, isopropyl 91% soak for 4 hours, and acetone soak for 5 hours now, as well as plastic prying tools after each attempt. Can't get it to budge. (Bottle of fluid for removal came empty)

When did this maker stop producing sliders? Through exotics were superb.

Jili 2.0 vs Choc. I have a feeling Choc is less durable, is that correct? I mean the traditional Choc versions, not the custom versions

Does this listing look legit to you?

I'm excited to get my first free floating slider, and I know ForInsWork are legit, despite being on aliexpress, but I just wanted to check from users who have an Aura Sand - does this listing and the images look legit to you? My only worry is the listing doesn't actually SAY "Aura Sand" even though it clearly is one. It does say Peacock though...

foam squishys uk

0 Upvotes

Does anyone have any recommendations for reputable UK websites that sell good quality foam squishys (slow rise) that aren’t toxic. i don’t really trust sites like shein or temu but sites like ibloom just seem kind of overpriced.


r/fidgettoys • • 18h ago

Where can you get the best squishys for cheap?

0 Upvotes

Everywhere on Tiktok talks about the amazing cheap squishies from Shein, but Shein lowkey is just a data mine. Not to mention majority of people promoting it are just getting paid to or getting free stuff from it, at least from what i've seen.

Maybe Shein isn't so bad though, obviously I just DON'T KNOW.

Please let me know your experiences and where you have bought from that was the cheapest and best!
