I used just the original eh yo-yo by SPYY for the year of 2012. Steve sent me 2. I lost one. Still have the one I used from May on and an unused one. We released the 1st TMBR production eH that winter.

There have been eH yo-yo releases as follows:
2012 - original eH in red oak
2013 - very similar to original but says 2013 and engraving slightly darker
2014 - 1st wood-thread eH in white oak
2015 - same as previous but more minimalist engraving on just one side
2017 - “eHxotics” in bubinga, zebrano, wenge, and 2 in ebony
2018 - larger “20-eH-teen” design with rims in ash and maple
2019 - spectra-ply version of the 18 with slightly dif dimensions in UNknown, yin-yeHng, and reHnbow
2020 - pockeHt edition in oak, cherry, and maple along with spectras

It’s pretty bonkers amazing wonderful that what started with a silly fixed axle whim after pressing oak woodies in Steve Buffel’s garage has evolved into a legit model which people look forward to and even collect. It’s a testament to Steve’s willingness to encourage one of his players go off on a strange counterintuitive quest, Andre’s belief in the resonance of a yo-yo’s “story”, and above all, Colin’s incredible craftsmanship which is simultaneously old-world and unbelievably innovative.

The write up on Wiki only goes through 2016

and through 2015 at the yoyo museum

However the YYEF have a lot of drop history spread out through the threads
