The legendary Yomega Fireball is back! Returning in its original 90s colors and logos, this classic yo-yo brings all the nostalgia and performance that helped shape modern yo-yoing.
Featuring Yomega’s signature plastic transaxle system, the Fireball delivers fast, smooth spins that made it a worldwide favorite for beginners and intermediate players alike. Long before ball bearings took over, the Fireball’s revolutionary transaxle design set the standard for what a high-performance yo-yo could be.
The Spectrum by Yomega is back and brighter than ever – now available in stunning new colors!
The Spectrum features a brilliant multi-color LED light system that bursts to life with every throw. With light panels in each half, this yo-yo delivers one of the brightest, most vibrant light displays you’ll find on any light-up model today. It looks great in daylight, but once the lights go down, the Spectrum truly steals the show! Perfect for performances, parties, or just showing off your skills in the dark.
Is this why we don’t hear much of Yomega? I have had a drafted post for a while asking what the heck happened to them, why they don’t even have a website, just an Amazon “shop”, and make like nothing new that is ever heard about. It I keep finding small answers to that question, so I never actually make the post.
I wanted to buy a Groov just for the tin and counterweight tbh, but I avoid shopping on Amazon as much as I can.
What is this Yomega Worlds incident? Please pm if too spicy for public discussion lol.
Edit: YoYo Archive has a description of what happened, im not gonna directly share it in this thread tho.
Most basically, about 20 years ago they did something that was very unprofessional regarding that specific contest.
They have since been trying to rebuild their reputation, but still are mainly popular with the general public. I’m not the people involved even work for Yomega anymore, so it’s probably fine to stay in the past.
I’m sorry to have derailed the restock post of my childhood favorite YoYo. More colors please, Yomega! Crazy neons are so back baby
The Fireball was my first yo-yo as a kid. It was a glow fireball and I have since found another in original packaging. It’s cool to see these reissued in the original artwork.
Just to be clear this was a long time ago and I think Yomega is pretty cool.
I didn’t want to elaborate in here because I regret directing attention away from the actual product release. Maybe a mod can split the thread and people can discuss it more there.
Yes please. Mod spacers are so cool. I saw sins in a buddies mod box and nearly asked him for them but decided I can probably print something close enough lol. At the same time a commercially made product would be awesome.
Raiders in some new colors would be sweet. I kind of dislike raiders stock though so they would have to be at least the ex version or have the modded spacers available too
