YoYoFactory ICON Collection

 

YoYoFactory has announced their next special collection, this one paying tribute to the yoyos that YoYoFactory really built their brand upon.

Rewind – Gacek Promo Video

May 5, 2013 By Steve Brown

Rewind YoYo Store dropped a new player promo video, this one for YoYoFactory’s Mateusz “Gacek” Ganc. Great play as always from Gacek, but we’re really enjoying this video series from Rewind…it’s a great idea, and they’ve done a great job with it so far.

YoYoFactory – Titanium Ricochet & New Packaging

March 7, 2013 By Steve Brown

There’s been a lot of talk about new products from YoYoFactory since the international toy fairs in New York, Nuremburg, and Hong Kong, and we’ve finally gotten hard information on everything!

New Packaging for 2013

2013 YoYoFactory Packaging

The One, WHiP, OneStar, Velocity, F.A.S.T. 201, and Loop 360 all have brand-new, beginner-centric packaging. Slip knots come pre-tied and ready for a new player, and the packaging is a noticeable departure from the look of most yoyo cards. Designed by John Huber, the new packaging looks great and once again raises the bar for industry packaging design.

Ricochet – Titanium YoYo

YoYoFactory Ricochet Titanium

The Ricochet is YoYoFactory’s first 100% titanium yoyo. Only 60% more dense than aluminum but more than 200% stronger, titanium is an expensive but excellent way to make sure you end up with a throw that will last you the rest of your life. The Ricochet will retail for between $200 – $230, and will be available from YoYoExpert and other yoyo specialty retailers. The coolest feature is the packaging…expect to see more YoYoFactory models available in these new plastic boxes, which serve as display boxes (with wall-mounting capabilities) that even lock together…so as you collect more yoyos, you build your own display case for them. Neat!

Official worldwide release date for the Ricochet is Sunday, March 17th, and each one comes with a limited edition translucent blue version of their popular multitool.

YoYoFactory at 2013 International Toy Fair in New York (Booth 4845)

February 11, 2013 By Steve Brown

YoYoFactory at 2013 International Toy Fair in New York Booth 4845

YoYoFactory always has the best brand presentation of any yoyo manufacturer, and this year is no different. Check out that light-up sign!

YoYoFactory’s offerings for 2013 are less focused on new product, and mostly find them refining their brand offering and offering new packaging that is specifically more retail-friendly. One new model is definitely of note, however…a new titanium yoyo called the Ricochet. Still no word on price or release date.

New packaging is available for the ONEStar, FAST 201, WHiP, Loop 360, and other models (as seen at the Hong Kong Toy Fair), giving most of the YoYoFactory line the same packaging footprint.

With their new packaging, brand direction, and amazing promotional tours, I think we can expect big things from YoYoFactory this year. With placement in Toys R Us and movement towards other mass market outlets, they’ve successfully made the transition from player’s favorite to major competitor in the world market.

Swing by Booth #4845 to check out their wares and pick up the 2013 catalog.
