just curious what the sweet spot is for most people. how big is your collection? i find myself collecting butterflies, but my unresponsive purchases have been fewer and more purposeful with more focus on play than collecting. what drives your collection?
Enough that my wife thinks I’m ridiculous
Not counting duplicates I have around 75. Counting duplicates it’s like 125
Unfortunately over 250
yea i counted my butterfly variations as individuals
is it though?
I actually have 24 right now!
Originally I wanted everything and anything out there. Now, other than a few outliers, I look for throws that are quirky, or fill a hole in my collection.
I have 11! and I have never had more.

Pinch me, I’m dreaming.
They are good yoyos and I enjoy them. I have tried a lot of yoyos and those are what stuck
Seriously; I really need to get another Plastic FH1…
Edit: I’m thinking of getting the Large Bearing plastic FH1 for Christmas-- does anyone have much experience with it?
went through my collection list and im at 185…
Haven’t counted in a long while, I know it’s over 100 still, but not sure how much over. I’d guess 125-150.
Just got back into it in early spring this year, and spent the summer traveling, so the purchases have been sparse. Started off by refilling the required Duncan quota for old guys. Then moved over to Offset, so spending has slowed due to the expense of them. I’m only at a dozen right now. I’ll probably pick up a Butterfly AL and a Freehand AL in the near future as my next Duncan fixes then to the Outlier 5 when YYE gets them in stock.
I don’t have a Butterfly AL, but the Freehand AL is my second favorite yoyo for sure. (Second to the Freehand MG, of course)
Playing a numbers game. I have more than a few but less than others, but I know there will be more to come.
When I originally came back and was stung by the Yoyo Acquisition Disorder bug, anything shiny was fair game.
Now I am more selective about what I “Collect”. Modern responsives and Hand Made yoyos are my thing.
I still get something shiny from time to time, but that is few and far between now.
Over 265 but the wife and I both play so we end up with multiples of ones we like.
Currently 101, some in the mail. I think, it will grow bigger.
It’s insane to think to have more than 100 yoyos, I mean where do they sit? I feel overwhelmed with around 20 ahahahah ngl have a huge collection sounds super fun, sometimes I fancy a certain type of yoyo to discover I do not have it but usually I play with the usual 2-3 everyday!
