I have a Playmaxx Bumble Bee yo-yo in its original packaging and was wondering if they are worth anything today? It appears the extra brake pads are missing but the yo-yo and extra string are there. I remember playing with these when I was a kid and they were really fun.

If it is not worth a fortune then I would be interested in it. But I think it all comes down to the person you are selling it to.

My guess is no. I bought a couple of unopened, MIP TBBs for $8-$10 each a couple of years ago. There are special branded versions that may be worth more but probably not so much for a stock version. In any event, keep your day job.

Looks like it’s circa 1997 before Playmaxx was purchased by Duncan in 2001. You can read about it here.

I doubt it would be worth all that much. Not more than $15, but probably not even that because it isn’t complete (i.e. doesn’t include the extra cork response pads). But you never know until you put it up for sale somewhere.

Thanks everyone for the information so far. I tried looking it up online to see if anyone was trying to sell one anywhere and the only one I could find was the yo-yo itself (no packaging or extras) on eBay for $30. I suppose I could list it there and see what happens. When it comes to Playmaxx my hope is one day I’ll get my hands on one of those cold fusion yo-yos in its original packaging. I wanted one when I was a kid, but couldn’t afford it.

In Playmaxx packaging (the plastic box) it would be worth more, but the plastic clam-shell Proyo Bees were very common and there are still a lot around packaged. Good luck on your dream of buying a Cold Fusion, they come up on eBay quite often and are a great collectible - I think I owned just about every different kind at some point or another, but now I have none left. Maybe someday I’ll pick up another…
