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

The Bumble Bee was part of Duncan's Hard Core Series product line of advanced play yo-yos. Everything about this model is identical to the Turbo Bumble Bee originally made by Playmaxx in the 1990s. When Duncan acquired Playmaxx around 2002, Duncan kept the Bumble Bee in production for a number of years. The yo-yo uses the same size A ball bearing axle and exclusive patented Brake Pad Technology (cork response pads) response as the original version. The only difference was a rebranding of the side caps and the packaging.

Original retail price: $30 US.
