Lots of my yoyos have come and gone, but honestly the only safe ones are these four.

They all have sentimental value. I’ve had the avalanche and profly for about 8 years, and the Dark Magic and Hattrick for 10.

I love that deepstate man, I think it’s beautiful symbolism for your mother. I’m glad you’ve found a welcoming community here that was willing to help assemble that; it just goes to show how yoyoing is way deeper for a lot of people than just using a toy.

If you asked about 6 months ago I don’t think I could have narrowed it down to less than five. This is a poor photo but if I had to get rid of all but one it’d be the Fatlip without a doubt.

What’s the story with the Nobunaga?

5150’s should have got more love for it’s the group it was in. The Nobunaga was my first bimetal that actually played like how everyone said they should. That little guy is a blast. Also I love Sengoku’s branding. When I get my hands on a company’s first release I have a hard time letting them go. It’s fun to go back and play their old stuff after trying their new releases to see how their designs grow.

I’m not attached to any too much. The only one I dont think I would want to get rid of is my original butterfly from 9 years ago. That being said, if someone was trying out yoyoing and really wanted something to start on and I had none other to give them, I would give them the butterfly.

Never is a very big word. If facing desperate enough times, no possession is safe from the selling block. However, yoyos that would be the last to go are the ones where I have some personal connection. These are:  
YYF Mutant DNA  
Spintime Matador  
Spintime Emprie  
Melford Special  
Custom Higby painted Freehand Pro  
early Spinworthy fixed axle  
OG Spin Dynamics Flow

Most of these, plus another case of fixed axles, and another small box of yoyos. And the ones I always carry in my bag :joy:
