No that was world war 5. It was so much bigger than the first two that they skipped 3 and 4 and went right to 5.

Some really awesome plastics have been released.  
C3 Speedoholic  
OD Rally  
CLYW Yeti  
YYF New Protostar

Yomega has had some nice releases. The ProDigy and Star Wars Glide look nice. ProDigy is machine in the USA by OD.

YYF released some pretty terrible splashes. It was as if the re ano’d over other yoyos in an attempt to get rid of overstock.

Some Cool Budget Metals  
YYF Shutter  
Duncan Echo 2  
OD Benchmark Series  
Duncan Strix

Janos and Hank Freeman took worlds in 1A and 3A. Duncan FTW.

YYF had a mystery Box sale which was pretty cool. The contents were great.

I got better at yoyo.
