**I’m not a Yo-Yo collector** , but arguably **I do have a Yo-Yo collection**. The photo shows 3 of 4 categories of my “collection”.

 ![collection spare](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/d/b/5/db59ce3622fbba0dadceb6308c6e68984bcf79ea.jpeg)

_ **In photo** _ (All located in a single box in my home office closet)  
**Spares** - Unopened extras or remnants of bulk buys for better price  
**Retired** - True collection (Historic or event specific)  
**Regrets** - Why did I buy these? Good news, in total, less than $50 investment

_ **Not pictured** _  
**Regular Rotation** - My workhorse throws. Scattered around the house or in vehicles.

Expecting a photo of **Regular Rotation** is kinda like getting a family reunion picture, not sure if I can get them all in the same room at the same time. Instead have chosen to feature them separately scattered in my other posts. Mimicking real life.

I know nothing about it other than it’s looks, but the Duncan Metal Racer looks cool. Why do you regret it?

Finally got all of this setup after moving two years ago.

Charlie, It’s a Metal Racer. I just never use it. It was an impulse buy. Was $7 at a discount store. Maybe I can use as a trainer if I ever attempt 5A.

Obviously, none of the “regrets” were horrible mistakes.

Metal Racer - Just don’t use it.  
Shutter - Stole my rebel status. Can no longer claim to be only yo-yo enthusiast who has never owned one.  
Merlin - Pure rookie mistake-I’m wiser now. _“but I was so much older then, I’m younger than that now”_ - My Back Pages (Bob Dylan)

Just googled photos and it looks way crazier than I imagined. I was not expecting the chrome rim caps. From your photo I was expecting a more Alleycat profile as well.

I proudly own almost 10. I don’t understand the stigma around the Shutter line! It’s such a good all around throw. Everyone is just jealous I guess. 🙂 Shutter-up everyone!!

That’s a perfect amount of throws. As a person who owns 50-60 different throws I usually only play with 2 of them a day so no real point in owning them all.

I think when I get around to evaluate my collection. I just might do the retired / regret as well.
