The only yoyo that I can even associate being similar to yours is YoTricks x Sengoku Forge 1st proto (bowl cup, profile is literally a YYF AlDream).

And even your design is already different due to the rim shape and response area step. I think you’re safe from anyone calling it similar to another yoyo.

Take a look at the [Yoyo CAD & Prototyping Adventures](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/yoyo-cad-prototyping-adventures/291547) thread. It is a gold mine of information for anyone interested in yoyo design.
