The TopYo Block is a lightweight 6061 aluminum yo-yo designed to bring your imagination to life. Engineered with a unique center face, it’s compatible with LEGO blocks, letting you customize and build directly off the yo-yo. This innovative feature transforms your throw into a canvas for creative exploration.
Crafted to be ultra-light and narrow, the Block ensures it remains perfectly balanced even after adding custom builds. Whether you prefer it unresponsive out of the box or want to convert it to responsive play with a slim bearing (sold separately), this yo-yo adapts to your style.
The Block yo-yo offers a truly one-of-a-kind experience, merging high-performance yo-yo play with the limitless possibilities of LEGO creativity.
It’s awesome that this one advertises being convertible to a narrow bearing as I was thinking to myself that it was the perfect candidate. And the price is very attractive too.
Fun yoyo - but you’re also gonna need a smaller axle too for the slim to work. I couldn’t find any in stock at time of purchase earlier this summer so I ended up buying a Shooting Star (wanted one anyway) to pull it’s slim and smaller axle from.
Very good modern responsive - I like running mine with the 2x2 turntable bricks so I can do pull starts. Does play slightly heavier once you add stuff to the hub but not bad.
This makes me wonder if the spinning plates can generate enough rpm to fully function as hubstacks! Given how good lego engineering is i wouldn’t doubt if they functioned decently but i still don’t know for sure
I know you have a Deeper State, not sure if you have the Deep State but how would you compare or contrast with the Deeper State? Or Deep if you have it. It looks so similar to the Deep State.
Deeper State is a bit bigger but because it’s a bit bigger, stalls lock in a bit tighter. Also I find that shooting the moon with the deeper state handles a bit better. I enjoy them both. Esp since my og Deep State is set up with spikes, it is a pull start machine.
Both are pretty comparable. The block is a pinch heavier esp when you add bricks onto it. Only caveat is that you’re gonna need a slim bearing and shorter axle (not included) to make this work. Stock, the gap is going to be too wide for modern responsive (slightly wider than the Deep/er States).
I ended up buying 2 - one to keep a slim unresponsive and the other outfitted with slim bearing. I also wanted to half swap mine
Hope this helps!
Considering how Lego plastic can wear down pretty quick with friction, I’m sure the plastic will wear so much faster at higher RPMs…not to mention, too much friction to begin with. For responsive pull starts, they’re perfect.
Awesome. I wasn’t even really caring about the Lego capabilities, I just thought it looked like it would be quite the player with the narrow bearing. I have a plethora of axles and narrow bearings just waiting. I really like the profile of it and I feel like may just have to give this one a try. I appreciate that it can be converted with no physical alterations needed. Just slap in a smaller axle and a narrow bearing and off you go. Sheesh… I’m talking myself into it…
