The day has come. I found a Train Wreck 2 and completed my collection of every available production model SPYY with the exception of the original Radian proto from 2006. If you have one of those, get at me. Now, I am trying to piece together the release timeline as best as I can. I would like to get it down to month and year for each model. Some of this info is available through yoyowiki, rewind, and @SCUBA_Steve 's old forum posts, but the rest is hard to come by. I will post what I have so far below. If you have anything to contribute let me know! As far as I know this is every _ **production model** _ SPYY that was available. 31 distinct models. Not counting special editions and unreleased protos. ![IMG_1817](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/c/5/c/c5c73850c99cb9a2a167d9b1839d87f6ef4f4afe.jpeg) UPDATE! I got in touch with @SCUBA_Steve and he went through his own records to shine some light on this subject! Can’t thank him enough for the super detailed spread sheet! It expands into the special editions, and reruns, and also led me to the knowledge that my collection may not be complete after all! I seem to have two Addiction 2s, and not a 1! AHHH!

Congratulations on completing the collection! I’m so envious! :wink: I really hope they release some new models from the legendary brand SPYY again!

Do you know if these were actual release dates, or just when they made it to YYE? I know a lot of times models will release well before making it to the retailers. I added these to the timeline and noted that these are specifically YYE release dates for now. ---

Thank you! I haven’t seen a red Pistolero, but I have a red Pistolero 2. My two original Pistoleros are both black, and one is a star grade. The only other one I have seen come up for sale was clear. ---
