    New JT Revvies

    New colours from PB Retro. Hopefully they're good plastic. Interestingly, the description mentions an anti jam reverse feature.

    I like the green colour, although majority of my markers and red and black so nothing it would go with. But in true MCB fashion, I could just buy a marker to match the accessory!

    Ansgear also has jt Revvies. Weird to see these now when they are supposed to be releasing the Triad.

      Lonewolf and others appear to have them as well.

      Kinda crazy I'm thinking of picking one up when I'm still waiting for my Triad to come.

        If it is the classic softie plastic for all colors, well done. Now just add more colors. Also bring back the VL3000.
        Velcor will save us...

          I saw a video of a guy really swinging a new one around by the lid and hitting it off stuff in a way that definitely would have broken the hinge in the old ones. Hopefully that’s a real improvement.

            They look good.

            but a loader like a Pinokio speed is better for the same weight

            Get out of here with your logic and reason, and pick up some rose tinted glasses on your way out!

            You're not wrong, my only gripe with the Pinokio speed and Sonic (they're functionally the same) is capacity and ability to load. I basically have to run my Sonic empty before I can fit a pod into it.

              So..... What did they change to implement an anti-jam feature?

              Also, why? The Revolution never needed one in the first place.

                Dammit, I ordered a smoke. I’m such a sucker for translucent loaders. And I already have more revvies than guns…

The balls can fall right past the paddles...maybe it basically just moves the paddles back to a position that isn't over the ball stack?
                    If you overfill the loader. I recall that happening on one or two occasions.

                      Brought an old X-board Revvy and bought the new one. The feed neck is hefty on the new one and there is no need to use the feedneck inserts. I chose the smoke, I doubt there is a worry of cracking. I’ll do field trial comparison today with a pre-2K Autococker.
                      Perhaps later, I can post a photo of the boards comparison is anyone is interested.

                        Played with the new one. Already the paddles are causing the paint to slow down the feed. Also, the battery connectors are stiff and is difficult to put my energizer batteries.

                        The new paddles do look the same as the old ones, but it is a bit stiffer compared to my old Revvy stock paddles. Maybe overtime they get softer? The typhoon paddles I have on my old Revvy did well.

                          Those typhoon paddles look interesting. I used to rock JMJs, but I don't feel like they were actually any faster than the stock.

                          This is all I got going for now. Perhaps someone else can post their results and comparison. I was skipping more shots with new revvy, but since I bought it I can keep going with the comparison because you may be right. Also, paint size and shape is factor as well in feeding.

                          I got a pile of tsunami paddles from I&i years ago. ( their ebay account) pretty sure Ive given most or all of em away. But it may be worth messaging them. They make a huge difference in my custom double ion hopper vs the stock (ricochet weed wiper paddles)

                          Im curious as to how the new eye technology is with sunlight. Or are these sound activated? I haven't researched too hard.
