This is a modular yo-yo that you can configure at least six different ways. Accessories include 3 different axle types, 8 different halve types, and 4 different weight rings. You can configure the yo-yo as a plastic butterfly, plastic imperial modified (with or without rubber rings on the outside perimeter), and an aluminum butterfly modified.
This particular kit includes 1 basic Hyper Dragon yo-yo that includes a string, axle rod, axle sleeve bearing, and a tool to take apart the yo-yo.
At the time, this was the most adaptable and customizable yo-yo that had ever been made. This yo-yo and accessories HD-01, -02, -03, -04, -05, -06, and -07 are from 1998. HD-09, -10, -11, -12, and -13 are from 1999. The weight and diameter are for the basic Hyper Dragon yo-yo itself.
Original retail price: $50 US.
