Hi All,
I was just wondering if anyone has fresh information on when the new gunmetal/black and yellow/green fades are coming out. The sticky post at the top of the page indicates that they were ready to ship from WDP in the first week of August, but we're almost three weeks in at this point and I still haven't heard anything.
Also, for folks in the know, are there any other changes to this batch of markers apart from the colors (programming or otherwise)? I searched through the forum but don't seem to see anything.
Any info from legit sources would be much appreciated.
Thanks

This batch is coming with a Tickle Me Elmo doll instead of a second volumizer. Hope that's OK!
Last I knew, they were in Customs. That was last week. Call up your friendly local MT and ask them for an update, and post it here. :)

Just spoke to Bob Moon a couple hours ago. He said that he should be recieving his shipment by Wednesday 25-Aug-04. Should get my force fly by Fri. :x: :blasting: Poor Bob is probably getting sick of me buggin' him.
What is meant by "this batch"?
Do they make 150 at a time... or total?
Bob told me I got the last black / chrome... exactly how lucky did I get?
It is true, I have sold out on my Black/Chrome but do not fear the other sponsors have some.

Each batch was done in 50 of each color, so you got 1 of 50 so far.

Ahhh... So there isn't a set limit to the total run for the model, just the color. Eventually Force/WDP will produce black force flies again.

You can never tell what the MT's have in store for us next. Maybe the black will come back and maybe not.

I think Ken found regular Force 4's, not Flies.

As in, non-Fly? Check our Classifieds for used Force 4's.

Along the lines of my original post, the word from the fine gents at Impact is that the new Force 4's should be in by the end of this week at the latest. If anyone on the list for this shipment gets the call, please post.
Thanks

Just received mine yesterday. THANK YOU Kenny (PerformanceAngel.com (http://www.performanceangel.com/)) for getting it for me.
The Angel Force has defiantly made an already great gun into something that is (IMO) defiantly King of the Hill, in the world of high-end guns.
As for my new personal one, the milling is great and the anodizing is beautifully done. Great fade job and the yellow/green color seems to change tones slightly depending on lighting conditions. The color goes from an olive to green and a yellow to gold.
Please excuse the pun but these guns are defiantly a "force" to be reckoned with.

I have a quick question about the force flys, are they any heavier then the regular a4flys?
gomergomes
09-08-2004, 02:16 PM
yes if you count the second volumizer and the alloy buttons vs. plastic-then yes is a bit heavier-and iv seen that green yellow same fade MT fly come with silver volumizers and a 2 tone low rise,not sure exactly why that is,and Uncle ray shouldnt you have the MT trig on your MT fly??
UncleRay1
09-08-2004, 03:42 PM
...and Uncle Ray shouldn't you have the MT trig on your MT fly??
Well, the guns are shipped from England with the Slayer trigger installed. The Master Techs swap them out for their MT triggers.
I just asked Kenny not to switch them out. I like the look and feel of the Slayer trigger and I know I can always buy a MT trigger from Ken later, if I wanted.

They should have thrown it on there for you without question.
I just picked my black force fly up at Impact. I know they have 1 black left, 2 gunmetal, and 2 green/yellows. So if you want one you better get on it soon.
gomergomes
09-09-2004, 12:45 PM
thats a darn shame b/c the MT trig can be MT mag retro'd,and has anyone gotten a 2 tone rise w/ their fade FF?
Kill your TV
09-09-2004, 03:19 PM
um, what is this two tone rise that you speak or?
gomergomes
09-11-2004, 01:09 PM
half sliver/half black=2 tone..,the guy with the pics above has it
flipside
09-11-2004, 07:13 PM
that rise only comes with the black and silver force fly :samurai:

i know the GUnmetal flys had 2 tone feed necks but the fade gunmetal - black doesnt.

It is only my deep, personal belief--in the fact that thoughts of Mena Suvari can erase all other mental images--that has gotten me through reading that sentence from you.
