the one that myers has is not reed's since none of it is painted blue, it's painted, green, yellow & pink and it does look a bit festive. i think that picture of reed's yo-yo was taked at fiesta, an event in downtown san antonio. as far as i know, reed has the contract with that event. i guess reed wants to trade the yo-yo in for something else. not sure what the'll get if they do, i'm a little suprised that reed's yo-yo was built in the late 70's i thought it was only 8 or 9 years old, it still looks great despite it's age. this year will be it's 30th birthday and probly it's final year with reed expo if they don't trade it in this year.
