888 help!?! Can anyone identify if this is an 08 or a rerelease?

I’m wondering if this is an 08, can anyone tell?

I just received this from my brother for a late Birthday gift. He has no idea about yo yo’s. He just knew I wanted a raw 888. It had an old cotton string on it, if that helps :rofl:.. jk, but it’s in amazing shape, that’s why I think it is newer :man_shrugging:t3:. Thanks in advance

Looks like an 08 888 to me. This one looks a little different than the new reissue version.

@pyrotechnic is usually the person I ask about 888s

I think it was call the elite edition. There was a G5 I think I had at one time too. I’m pretty sure it’s 08’ and 7075 al.
