I’m excited for my yoyo of the month mystery box. July’s box was dope!
What’s that? Is this something involving weed or is it like a yoyo as in the toy? I’m legit wondering how people add variance to such a simple thing
Oh man, you should look into it. The yoyo (toy) scene is going through an absolute renaissance. Here’s a good video from Wired to get an overview of the hobby.
I’m not much of a collector, but my daily driver is a “MagicYoyo T5 Plus Overlord” I picked up on Amazon. One day I’d like to upgrade to something like the “Monarch.”

I haven’t played with a yoyo in a very long time. Is Duncan still a solid brand? Now I want a yoyo.
Iirc Duncan is still pretty solid (and easy to find), though there’s a lot of options out there these days.
If you’re looking for a more modern entry-level yoyo, I’d personally recommend the Crystal K2. This one comes with a spare “unresponsive” bearing, so if you ever decide to get into the more advanced tricks you’ll be covered.
