Museum of Yo-Yo History


Sponsors and Curators The Museum of Yo-Yo History is a labor of love, and we would not be able to stay up-to-date with exhibits without the support of our sponsors and curators. Big thanks go to One Drop Design and Duncan for supplying us with their latest models, YoYoExpert for their help and support, and to Cody Orr, TotalArtist and YoYoBrothers™ for allowing us to use their collections!

A black and yellow ballbearing yo-yo in a modified design. Came packaged with extra bee colored strings (yellow/black) and two extra cork brake pads. One of the best playing plastic yo-yos ever made.

Some of these clear, plastic boxes came with two round stickers that sealed the outside of the box on both ends. Other such boxes had no stickers. The box you see above has never been opened despite not having the sticker seal. You can use the pictures in this exhibit to determine the authenticity of a box's contents that you may bid on or price.

Original retail price: $30 US.

Compare to the Duncan Bumble Bee.

Yo-Yo used genuine ProYo replacement parts that included bee strings and cork brake pads.
