 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!
If you're a manufacturer, or just a big collector and you want to help support the Museum drop me at line at chimera@yoyomuseum.com

General-Yo of Riverside, California, with Ernie Kaiser at the helm, designs and machines their own high-end precision yo-yos. The Mini Star, released July 2010, was General-Yo's senior (4th) release. As the name suggests, it is an undersized aluminum yo-yo with impeccable craftsmanship. It uses a size C AIGR (Aircraft Instrument Gyro Rated) ball bearing axle and General-Yo Hat-Pads for response. Designed and made in the USA.
In the past, General-Yo was known for their very limited production numbers -- usually 100 or less. According to the General-Yo website, the model shown in this exhibit had a production run of supposedly 37 total pieces. A great example of quality over quantity.
Compare with the pre-production Mini Star 2017 that came out in May, 2017.
Original retail price: $90 US
