This innovative yo-yo lets the player convert it to either a tournament-style shape for looping or a butterfly shape for string tricks. The Blazing Team line of yo-yos spans a range of player skill levels from beginner to intermediate to advanced. The Morph Master is considered an intermediate skill level yo-yo.
The Blazing Team product line, combined with the animated series, filled a market niche in that their yo-yos were designed with young children in mind who were new to yo-yo play; they were also affordable, fun, and interesting to use. The yo-yos helped children develop their hand/eye coordination, and the discipline needed to master a skill. As young players became accomplished, they would build more confidence at each stage or level. At the time, there was no other yo-yo product line quite like it.
From the Hasbro website:

Blazing Team is an animated boys action-adventure series that first aired in 2015 on the Discovery Family cable channel. The show's premise is that a mysterious “darkness†rises; a group of teens join together to harness the mystical power of "Yo Kwon Do"--a practice that defeats evil by blending the skill of yo-yos with the martial art of Tae Kwon Do. The series was originally based on the Chinese animated series "Blazing Teens" that first aired in 2006 in Asian countries.
