The YoYoFactory Loop 720 - Mother 3 Friends edition with glow in the dark body, translucent green side caps, and a special polyester purple string. As of February 2024, this model was available only in Japan. Side A of the yo-yo features the characters Porky (left) introduced in Mother 3 and Ness (right) from Mother 2, characters in the Mother/Earthbound series of video games from Nintendo. Side B features the iconic Mother logo.
The "Ness Yo-Yo" is the weapon used by the character Ness in "Mother 2. In Mother 3, the yo-yo is a treasure that is kept in Porky's room as a "friends yo-yo." The yo-yo is an important prop in the Mother series.
The internal structure is orthodox and highly stable with [black] metal spacers and size K ball bearing axle. The width of the gap (groove) is fixed specifically for looping, so the yo-yo returns securely to your hand without any special oil adjustments or modifications. Yo-yo came in a transparent plastic case with the words "TO BE CONTINUED..." on it, so that it can be displayed on a regular basis.
Side of box packaging is the coffee break text:
Ness, you're good...
I'm kind of
jealous of you.
I'm no good.
But Hess
... it's okay.
Let's stay friends
forever.
The card insert inside the box has a nice design behind the yo-yo, evoking an image of the yo-yo resting inside Porky's room.
