This is an extremely rare version of the Smother's Brothers Yo-Yo Man Yo-Yo. When their show became popular in the late 80's, they released a video package through Kodak which included this yo-yo, and a copy of "The Yo-Yo Man Instructional Video." Kodak had no idea how popular this video would become.

Only the very FIRST release of the video package included this Yellow version in Kodak's colors. After this release, the yo-yo in the package was a red Smo Bro Yo-Yo. So yellow is a tough color to find, especially in UNUSED condition. Most people that bought it were beginners, and beat the yo-yo to pieces. In Rainbow packaging, from the liquidation of the Hummingbird factory.
