The Museum of Yo-Yo History is a labor of love, and we would not be able to stay up-to-date with exhibits without the support of our sponsors and curators. Big thanks go to One Drop Design and Duncan for supplying us with their latest models, YoYoExpert for their help and support, and to Cody Orr, TotalArtist and YoYoBrothers™ for allowing us to use their collections!

This Doraemon yo-yo features the face of Doraemon, a blue male robot cat from the popular Japanese manga series Doraemon. He is a major character in the series and the older brother of Dorami, a female robot cat. The yo-yo has a molded plastic body, a metal axle, and comes with a cotton string.
Show premise: One day, a round, blue, cat-style robot named Doraemon appears in front of Nobita-san. Doraemon has been sent back in time by Nobita’s great-great-grandson to prevent Nobita from making mistakes that would plunge his descendants into poverty. This is no easy task, as Nobita is notoriously unlucky, weak, and lazy. Fortunately, Doraemon has a four-dimensional pocket containing futuristic gadgets from the 22nd century, which he uses to help Nobita navigate various problems.
This rare yo-yo was not made available for general sale, and the exact method of distribution is unknown. It was officially licensed by Fujiko-Pro, Shogakukan, and TV-Asahi of Japan. Epoch Raku produced four different character yo-yos from this long-running series.
The yo-yo was distributed by Argos Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan, and released in 2002.
