I just thought of something to elaborate more 🙂

Looks matter to me depending on whether it’s going to be more of a “competition” yoyo, or just a daily carry.

Like, say, if I had 2 Sasquatches.

my Blue Acid/Brown Speckle (My actual one) would be my competition yoyo, where as one like the Yellow w/ blue speckle would be a daily carry, just because the other is more appealing.

So, I think the initial question has to be answered in a specific way, otherwise the answer is too… broad, if that makes sense.

Well,In my eyes HEAK YA!!! every time i look at new yoyos i just skip past the ugly looking 1s and spend great time looking at the cool looking 1s. So to sum it all up Yes it plays a great deal of importance in the yoyo world

This thread made me realize that we need a size limit on images in signatures.

I do care about looks on yoyos, but it’s not a huge deciding factor when buying them.

Ugly yoyos are the best! You can lay them down anywhere and nobody will touch them. If they get dinged you don’t care, they’re ugly already!

I’m more interested in shape and size. I’m always looking for something different and unexplored.

I want my yoyos to look awesome, but honestly if I’m going to buy a yoyo and they don’t have blue, then it doesn’t really matter.

Looks are NOT a deal-breaker unless it’s the most ugliest thing you have ever seen.  
This is how it goes.  
Yoyo I want → Colors → Buy
