    I got a Duncan Imperial from a mall once when I was a kid. At the time I was impressed with the build quality of it because before that I only got yoyos like the ones you saw at Target but it also made me think yoyoing was extremely hard because it was so difficult to get it to sleep and it died out before I could really do anything. It was only about a decade later that I understood fixed axels and bearings and stuff like that.

      I had those Duncan yoyos starting out and they were good for learning how to throw but ultimately stunted my growth. Wasn't until I was much older that I realized you had to have an "unresponsive" yoyo to do all the cool tricks. On a complete whim I bought my first real yoyo, a MYY N12 on Amazon, and ever since then I've taken it seriously. I would not recommend these big box store yoyos to beginners though. There are some great beginner yoyos from YYF and MYY that will have longevity and aren't complete garbage to use. I will make the exception for the duncan limelight however, I have one and it's kinda cool as a novelty throw. Never giving up my Shutter or Outlier 2 though.

    So, our local target(s) almost always have Butterfly-XTs. Sometimes they are out, but all the stores here at least have a SKU for one. If I recall, they are about 7USD. They are usually over by where you found the Rubik's cubes on that wall with the board games, some stores it's located in that section with the bins. It's certainly a yoyo I have personally outgrown. But if someone takes interest in the hobby and they aren't ready to purchase online, A Butterfly-XT is perfectly serviceable for learning your fundamentals like Sleeper, Breakaway, etc. etc. etc.

  • @SO-rb8wc

    Im practicing with a Duncan Butterfly XT i bought from Target for $9 a few months ago. Used to love yoyos when i was a kid 25 years ago or so and remember duncan and yomega as the hot brands at my school. Was suprised they had it at target. Works amazing for my level and nostalgia is off the charts.

  • @laff000

    Back in the day the Duncan Yoyo man would show up at various stores and shops all over. He would put on demonstrations and show us how to do tricks and such. The corner grocery store would do a booming business selling yoyos. Those were great days.

    • @FDE_Doom_Guy

    @jrodificator1 Před 6 měsíci

    I had one of those spring loaded light up yoyos that you found in the toy store when I was 7 or 8. It was probably the coolest thing I had at the time, would definitely get one again as it was really easy to use. Probably not the easiest to do tricks with but it was fun.

      @@-thunderousofficial- I don't think the original butterfly has a ball bearing in it and I didn't see any others at Target. Since I learned on semi-modern yoyos like the dark magic and protostar, it wouldn't of had the same impact on me. The Butterfly XT has a ball bearing which lets you do most of the simple tricks on it easily, including some string tricks.

This video reminded me that I got my Yomega brain from Toysrus and they also had the fireball when I got my brian many years ago. Too bad toysrus is no longer around. I did see they are doing a thing with Macy's or some department store to sell toys in their stores but I'm sure it will only be the top best selling toys and they most likely will not sell yoyos.

    as a 50 year old guy, in rural america they never had real yoyos to buy. duncan butterfly or imperial was the best you could do. I watched yoyo tricks on tv for years marveling at how they can defy physics with their yoyo. Boom! the internet comes along and im like oh, thats how they do it. Its still hard but fun to learn. But at least its physicaly possible. I got a sage that i like. probably upgrade to a metl one one of these days. I wonder if you could upgrade a duncun to a bearing. Darn it there goes my weekend.
