 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 original Playmaxx ProYo Ace was essentially a miniature butterfly version of the Playmaxx Cold Fusion GT model. It featured a size A ball bearing axle. One halve was anodized a beautiful rust red color; the other halve was anodized in black. The face of the rust red-colored halve has the "ProYo Ace proyo.com" imprint while the black halve face is blank. Came with one extra set of cork response pads, and one pack of ProYo white cotton strings.
This original Ace was slightly different compared to the ProYo Ace II that came out a year or two later. This version used special, thinner cork response pads, and had a marginally narrower string gap.
The yo-yo was covered by US Patents 5,813,897, 5,813,898, and 5,951,361.
