"PK Yomega
By Jon Kay. The Yomega Raider is a modern legend in the yo-yo world because of its quality, performance, and value. It's easy enough and inexpensive for novices, and well-designed and versatile enough for advanced players to win championships with it. Each Yomega comes ready to roll in its own custom-printed pouch, but if you need string replacements we recommend #6 (classic) or #8 (thicker) string types. For these and other yo-yo resources, check out one of these sites:
• Yomega Store (dead link)
• YoyoGuy (dead link)
• Yoyo Play (dead link)
Designed by Jon Kay and manufactured by the good folks at Yomega."
The name and spiral design suggests a connection to the video game EarthBound (also known as Mother in Japan), a cult classic RPG. The mention of "Smaaash Toys" likely refers to a themed product line, possibly inspired by EarthBound (or a similar franchise). FanGamer is known for producing merchandise related to popular games and shows, so this Yomega yo-yo is likely a licensed collectible. Came polybagged inside a cloth, drawstring bag with one, white string.
Original retail price: $17 USD.
