Spingear's Guilty Gear - STRIVE - Bridget Yo-Yo is based on Spingear's Looping Star yo-yo.
There were two versions of this yo-yo: a character version and a yo-yo version.
• Character version - Has the Bridget character on side A; the side B cap depicted a gun cylinder with ratchet and six bullets loaded in the chamber with their primer and casing end showing.
• Yo-yo version (as seen in this exhibit) - The side A cap depicted a gun cylinder with a full metal jacket bullet in each of the six chambers; side B cap depicted the opposite side of the gun cylinder with the ratchet and the primer and casing end showing for each of the six bullets. Both sides of this yo-yo version were designed to replicate the same image of the yo-yo in the game.
This set included a yo-yo and an acrylic yo-yo holder featuring Bridget from the game Guilty Bear - STRIVE. To attach the yo-yo to the acrylic stand, you had to first remove the string and disassemble the yo-yo. Designed as the industry's first acrylic keychain for carrying yo-yos, the holder also functioned as a display stand—it stands upright when the yo-yo is attached. Printed in Japan with high precision, the design offered excellent detail and strong resistance to scratching, though the print could peel if you scraped it with sharp objects.

Description of the Looping Star from spingear.jp:
"The best entry model! Perfect for looping tricks!
Based on the know-how gained from releasing Step1, Starburst, and Spin Gadget, this is the entry-level model that lets you try looping tricks with ease.
The use of a plastic transaxle bearing (similar to Yomega models) reduces the number of parts, making it easy to use even for those who are new to yo-yos.
This yo-yo is designed to be simple and easy to use, so you can start looping the loop right away without any complicated maintenance. (The string is a consumable item, so you must replace the string periodically.)
Use the yo-yo not only for basic yo-yo movements such as throwing, sleeping, and returning, but also for full-fledged looping tricks. Despite its low price, it is also highly durable thanks to its polycarbonate resin [body]."
