This may actually get me to build a flex

I'm just glad they're challenging GI.

They'll be a cool canvas for some dye jobs.

If I can't go to this event, is there a way to make the purchase?

HK's website has them. I doubt this will be a limited release by any means.

[zinger565]

PBRetro.com has them in stock now, will likely have them afterwards as well.

All the HK marketing material has the actual goggles blurred out. Or it has a set of ugly Amazon looking quality goggles with equally ugly 'nods' attached.

But the bottoms do actually look good. Better than the modern JT offerings anyway.

HK makes garbage

LOL

There packs are actually really good. I hate HK marketing but the tool bags actually make some nice stuff. Pads and pants are meh..

[TF_Aloha]

It makes Kore sad, so I like it.

[BrickHaus]

Clears already sold out. Haha

Trosen confirmed it's ai imagery added in. Likely to avoid having "JT" branded parts in their official marketing.

I feel like this is something HK has put a lot of effort in to. I don't mind them at all. HK is in a bit of catch-22 here. Make bottoms that look like proflex's, and they're just "copy-cats" and "knock offs". Make something different and everyone complains. Again, just glad someone is challenging GI.

Ans has them up now

[bouford]

awaits the dyers to see how they hold up

[Chuck E Ducky]

They kind of look like a VIO from the front. The reds are cool looking.

Well, for no good reason. I just picked up a white pair. I figure it's a good dye candidate even though it's not clears.

With my home field working on a cosmic ball field. I figure it will hopefully be somewhat uv reactive out of the box. Then I'll do a highlighter fade with uv rit dye if it's such a thing. I've put the cart far before the horse.

Cosmic paintball that sounds fun.

When you get them can you post pictures with these next to a flex bottom. It's hard to tell how they compare size wise to a flex bottom

[BrickHaus]

I'll do an mcb review. But it seems they won't ship til after cup.

So how many weeks until all of these things have turned milky yellow?
