From ilyy.de website:
"We are expanding our lineup of low-priced yoyos. The Void was the first one in that category. Now, we follow up with Valve and Verve (seen in this exhibit) yo-yos. Both Valve and Verve feature a similar shape and similar design elements (internals). The Valve being the full size entry at 54mm diameter. And the Verve being the smaller brother and choice for fans of the undersized experience at 50mm."

According to production data on the ilyy.de website, the Verve in this exhibit was Proto #1 that came out sometime in October 2011. Based on the total number of Verve made, it suggests that the yo-yo was never released into full production. Came in a red velvet leather-like drawstring bag, branded with "I[heart symbol]YOYO German High-End YoYos" and instruction sheet.
