I saw that you guys made a fidget spinner, the Trillium.

Unlike yo-yos, fidget spinners were obviously a bit of a fad in retrospect – do you regret dipping your toes in that market?

Also do you see yourselves ever making any more non-yo-yo products?

We don’t regret it at all. That was so strange because we were developing our spinner before they exploded as a big fad. When I first saw them in 7/11 I was blown away.

We are proud of our spinner and what we contributed to that realm.

If the right idea happens, we would make other non-yoyo products. It’s hard for us to find time to R&D an entirely new product, but it could happen.
