Bandai Hyper Yoyo Accel Neon UFO

Known to ancient Greeks as early as 500 BCE, yo-yos came to Japan from China during the Edo period (1600-1868) and quickly became very popular: the people of Edo, the old Tokyo, loved juggling tricks so they readily adopted the new toy. And of course, like all traditional things, the Japanese kept the basic idea but evolved it many times over in the next three hundred years and the latest incarnation, the Bandai Hyper Yoyo Accel Neon UFO, is a yo-yo like none you've ever seen or played with before!

At 18 x 4 x 0.3 cm (7 x 1.6 x 0.1"), the Bandai Hyper Yoyo Accel Neon UFO is rather on the small side, which makes it ideal for fast throwing and catching. Its narrow string gap and slim body also contribute to its speed, and make very good for looping tricks like Loop the Loop, In/Out Loop, or Hop the Fence. But the real game changer is Bandai's Accel System, which allows you spin the yo-yo just by holding it in your hand. This adds extra speed that, combined with the spectacular visuals, makes this look like something out of a science fiction movie!
