A very small, boutique release from Odditydesign. The business introduced themselves and their new yo-yo -- the XS -- a couple of times on social media. The first introduction occurred September 5, 2017:
"Hi All,
1st release from our new small boutique brand. We just wanted to create things that didn't fit the typical mold. Things that are a little odd. 10 are going to go up for sale this afternoon on the BST and then another 10 in a week or so.
Recipe
Limited Edition: 20 pieces (7 Clear, 6 Light Grey, 6 Dark Grey, 1 Orange)
Width: 36mm
Diameter: 40mm
Weight: ~64.5g
Response: 19mm Pads
Bearing: Concave C
String: Blueprint Orange
Coating: Powder
Material: Steel
Price: $77 ($80 for the orange since it's 1 of 1.)
Prince includes shipping in the US since I get annoyed at people that are say a price is one thing and then jack up the shipping. This way you know exactly what you're in for from the start."

The second introduction occurred September 7, 2017:

From the odditydesign.bigcartel.com/product/xs website:
"Let's be honest, you know what it is. It's a super small yoyo and it intrigues you. Awesome, here at Oddity we figure there are enough 'normal' throws out there so we wanted to do something odd. We hope you enjoy it as much as we've enjoyed making it. After this run sells out they won't be made again and we'll be on to the next oddity.
Limited Edition: 20 pieces (7 Clear, 6 Light Grey, 6 Dark Grey, 1 Orange)
Bearing: Concave size C
Coating: Powder"
Unfortunately, this particular new yo-yo was sold with a very dirty (rusty) bearing seat as seen in the Internals image. As of January, 2019, this model was still available on their website. If you choose to purchase the yo-yo, make sure you are buying a "clean" yo-yo.
Original retail price: $77 US.
