One of the most popular Pro 99s with collectors, these came in three colors laced with glitter, red, blue, and green. Smaller in diameter than the older "Made in the USA" Cheerios, some collectors have suggested these were made after Cheerio was bought by Duncan. The Hi-Ker Spinmaster colors were identical, and in some cases, if the Cheerio sticker is removed, many of these will have a Hi-Ker Spinmaster logo impressed under the sticker.

The sticker is not centered well on this one, a common problem with Cheerios. Also notice on the bottom right of the groove, the "painting" mark can be seen. The area without paint is where the yo-yo was held during painting.
