Prototype Yoyo maybe?

So I bought a yoyo at the Pacific Northwest regionals this year, and the man who sold it to me claimed it was a “display model”. So we bought it at a discount of 100 rather than 140 bucks which was a great deal because aside from a tiny scratch it was very clean, and had ZERO vibe. Now, here’s where it gets weird. The top is called the W1LD Contrast Brass PC, and I searched it up on google to see which color I had gotten. I didn’t find a single one is this specific color. Another weird coincidence is that all the colors for the different materials, (brass, aluminum, and the POM rims were in the stock, bare colors. So now I’m wondering if this yoyo is a potential prototype, or maybe the color hasn’t been released yet, OR, if it was just a mistake in the manufacturing process. Either way, I’m still stumped on WHAT this yoyo is.

its pretty common for random one-off units like that to occur with remaining parts, i’d imagine they were testing brass + POM and found it too heavy, i know there were some GPPR and other YYR throws with PC/POM options that had some mismatched rims

Thanks for the explanation!

This must be the most powerful contrast!
