  • Difference between Red and Raw specifications

Raw is no coloring on the yo-yo body(Red&Black) and bullet(Black) part. The laser engraving is the same as on the red yo-yo. (The photo shows a prototype). It does not have a polished mirror finish and may have some lathe grindings and minor scratches caused by the work process.

This is raw aluminum and will weather. It can be polished by using a polishing cloth, but since many of the parts are finely intricate, they may dull if left with hand grease or moisture.

Please order with the understanding that there is a possibility of rusting and dulling over time.

About red anodizing version

The process is called anodic oxidation treatment, and the color is less likely to fade than simple painting. It is common finish for highend yoyos.If the product is bumped and dented, the undercoat may be visible. Also, the color may fade after long use.


Bringing yoyo weapons from the game world to the real world

Yo-Yo Master Taka, former world yo-yo champion and the inspiration for the birth of Bridget, the yo-yo that appears in Guilty Gear, lead this yoyo project.

He also produce highend miniture yoyo brand,called 66%. The project is a collaboration with Mitsumi, an expert in automatic lathes, and a factory in Katsushika-ku, Tokyo.


We finally started working on a Bridget yo-yo in full metal, we couldn't make 20 years ago when I was young.

The plastic version of the yo-yo was intended as a casual fan-goods item, but we wanted a "realistic prop" to immerse players in the game world.

We started this project with two prerequisites in mind: not just a prop, but need to be usefull yo-yo if the World Yo-Yo Champion was involved.

The premise is that making a metal yo-yo the size of the one in the game cannot be produced with a weight that can actually be used, and also considering the danger of the yo-yo being used as a weapon in case it is used (and people want to wield it out of curiosity), the decision is made to make it in a miniature size.

Another problem with producing yo-yos of large size is price. In order to achieve a certain degree of mass production and affordability, it is necessary to keep the size down.

In this respect, Mitsumi Factory, which specializes in auto machined precision machining and is in charge of producing the 66% series, a brand of miniature size yo-yos produced by Taka, was the perfect partner.

We submitted a proposal to Arc System Works for a full-metal yo-yo that could be used while focusing on its perfection as a prop using metal materials.

However, this was not an ordinary application for commercialization, but rather a challenge to produce a yo-yo and sell it only if we could produce a commercially viable product.

The yo-yo detailed materials obtained contained many details and settings,color that could not see from the game.

If we had manufactured the yo-yo based only on the images in the game, it would have been a little easier, but once we saw the inside infomation, we wanted to incorporate them into this yo-yo.

There were many problems when it came to the actual shape of the yo-yo, and it was very difficult to create drawings of a yo-yo that could actually be used.

1:Variety of colors in the yoyo parts

Unlike what I had imagined, there were not a single material embedded, but rather six multi-colored materials embedded on each side.

（From screenshots in game）

What is embedded in the black cap is actually three different metals embedded to express three different colors. All of the parts are highly precise parts machined on a lathe.

Brass and copper are solid, so you can enjoy their changing texture. The iron is dyed black to give it an uneven texture.

2:Logo and other details are more detailed than normal metal yo-yos

The text and logos written in the setting materials are printed on each of the tiny parts by laser engraving.

These parts could not be read from the screen during the game.

There is also a logo on the side portion.　One of the ways to enjoy the product is to think about what 28 MODEL R means.

3:Precision machined yo-yo with 39 total parts

The yo-yo body part is made of duralumin. The bullet part is made of a combination of several metals: brass, iron, and copper, giving it a small but massive finish. The photo shows the yo-yo before assembly, and it cannot actually be disassembled this much.


It can be disassembled as a yo-yo, bearings can be replaced and maintenance can be performed.

  • Body left/right (Aluminum, red) 2 parts
  • Cap left/right (aluminum, black) 2 parts
  • Cap retaining screw left/right (iron, black) 2 parts
  • Phase Alignment Screw 1 part
  • Bullet side: Brass, Copper, Iron 3x6=18 parts
  • Bullet casing side: brass, iron 2x6=12 parts
  • Bearing 1 part
  • Shaft (stainless steel, exclusively machined) 1 part

The total number of parts is 39, which is unusual for a normal yo-yo. This is the first yo-yo in the world that combines 5 different metals, which is unprecedented in yo-yo design, to create a yo-yo that can be properly used as a yo-yo.

This model is designed to be both visually appealing and playable. Advanced yo-yo players are encouraged to try this model as a test of their skills.

Not suitable for competitive tricks.The bearings can be degreased to make it bind.

The yo-yo is screwed in a different way than normal yo-yos, allowing the yo-yo body to be fixed in the desired position. This makes it possible to position the yo-yo left or right at the desired location by aligning the position of the indentations.
