Best overall flatland new school bike for an old school rider

I'm looking for something that can handle my 190 lb a$$ without breaking but perhaps a little lighter than the stuff I rode BITD. I'm still looking to run front and rear brakes. Pegs all around and wouldn't mind a frame stander if they even make those anymore.

I'd love to grab a rider Master or Trick Star but I'd be afraid of breaking the damn thing at some point.

Any suggestions?

Would like to keep the budget around 500ish if possible.

A sight for sore eyes to the blind would be awful majestic. It would be the most beautiful thing that they ever had seen. It would cause such surprise, it would make all of their minds electric. How could anyone tell them that some things are not what they seem?

Or for the old school in you, http://subrosabrand.com/ is releasing a split frame soon.  Could run you more money though.
