Really nice collection Howard. That new one puts some heat on the other pretty girls. Are the 3rd and 4th on the second row different? It looks like flames coming off the spinning hubs on the 4th. I dig it. I think @hobbygod may have contributed a little more than just information. Coming up with a universally loved design able to inspire a man to amass such a collection is no easy feat.

They are the YYE edition, the one on the right definitely looks more like flames

It looks as though you have both the light and dark greens from the original D bearing run. Instead of the blue and green half swap I think you just need a blue from that first run; they’re the same anodizing.
Fluffy fade will be tough since it was a Japan exclusive color.
You’re also missing the C bearing version, which has 50 pieces from the year before I started DD.
Good luck on your continued search!!

Yeah I need someone to compare this to other yo-yos. I still don’t get if it’s something I would find fun or laugh at in leave on a shelf…

What is that YoyoFactory yoyo in the middle?
Thanks for the information, I’ve updated my want list. Talked to a guy through FB that was supposed to have a Fluffy Fade but it took days between messages and then radio silence.
Wasn’t sure about the two shades of green. Forgot about the C bearing release, just when I thought I was close to the finish line🙂
Thanks again

I just picked it up and I’m still at work, however I played it between last November and December, when they sent the pre-production to Riccardo and I remember very well that the first thing I thought was that it was much, much more serious than I had thought…
As soon as I can I will give you more detailed and precise impressions.

How is the BAE?

some hot impressions on the Minitee… This yoyo looks like a joke but, it’s not at all. If you are looking for a yoyo that is easy to control, predictable, for relaxed play, this probably isn’t for you.
On the horizontal plane, most of the weight is far from the center of gravity, this means that the yoyo has a good rotation force but but he demands very clean and precise movements, otherwise the yoyo bends and changes direction … in short, stability is not it is his best dowry. Even during the launch, although it is very smooth, if you are not precise the yoyo will rotate with a considerable vibration.
And, don’t expect a competition yoyo…
So a yoyo which, with regard to its very particular and nonuncommon weight distribution, will help you improve your movement precision or… will make you despair! 
Of course, however, don’t make the mistake of underestimating him… he’s small but tough and with a character that’s not easy at all.
p.s. the finish is fantastic!

Let me start off by saying I’m more of a collector than a thrower (which I’m hoping to change soon) but anyway…
Great build quality, powerful, long spin times, very stable, finish is smooth, can move fast if you want it to, comfortable in the hand and feels just a little heavy on the string.
You cannot go wrong with BAE (unless you prefer lighter feeling throws), it is an excellent competition yo-yo.

YYF IQ from @Hojo-YoYo
Probably my third fav bimetal after the Klondike and GTR-JS. Definitely some of YYF’s best work.
Nice to have one in clear, my other two are darker and one is pretty beat up from taking walk the dog requests in public lmao
