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!

Compare The Coca-Cola Yo-Yos of the 1980's sparked one of the earliest yo-yo booms in recent memory in Japan. This 2010 version pays homage to Coca-Cola's contribution to yo-yo history, recreated in the same "Georgia Green" as the famous Coca-Cola bottle, with two different designs of the decade's Coke logo on the side caps. This particular model sports the 1980s era Coke logo on side A, while the side B pog cap says, "Coca-Cola Classics - Have a Coke and a smile - 1980s". Made by a Japanese company called Matsui Gaming Machine. The ball bearing axle is size L, the same size used in Italian Oxygene and German ILYY Yo-Yos. Interestingly, the bubble portion of the package very roughly translates to the shape of a Coke bottle. Cames with three extra red strings. Other Views Front, large 2005-2023 Software © David W.
