I've only ever heard of V5 (0.5 mm) and V7 (0.7 mm), and Googling doesn't turn up a V2. Is there one, or was this a typo?

I am the same. I have used V5, V7 an VBall Pilots. I even checked their webpage to check if the V2s were some kind of premium line I didn't know, but found nothing.

What it's even more puzzling is the children comment that totally remembers them.

Yeah, that was a phone typo. It's the V5.
