 Sponsors and Curators
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!
If you're a manufacturer, or just a big collector and you want to help support the Museum drop me at line at chimera@yoyomuseum.com

Officially released in mid 2009, the SPYY Pistolero (Spanish for "gunman") is a Canadian-made aluminum yo-yo with a size D bearing, one "Dif-pad" (black), and one silicone pad (red) for the response of this unresponsive yo-yo. The outer perimeter of each halve is laser engraved with a vintage western motif similar in design to those found on custom engraved Colt Peacemaker revolvers from the 19th century. Also, the hub of each halve has six holes in a circular pattern, letting you partially see into the bearing, regardless if the yo-yo is spinning or not. Overall, a very unique and interesting design.
After more than 10 years, SPYY temporarily closed its doors for business July, 2013. Following a two year hiatus, SPYY released the TYY-01, a $300 (USD), numbered, all-titanium yo-yo on November 8, 2015. Then, on May 4, 2017, SPYY re-released three models of $100+ yos that were leftover stock from previous years when SPYY was in active production: Galactic Goose (powder blue), Addiction (black/brown), and Supra (gold/yellow).
