    oh my bad. um they don't have gold accents, but i think if you can find a picture of the newer precision pro, that racket is black with gloss so it should be similar. (the older pp is matte black i think)
    if you care about looks though, imo the Revelation with the woven carbon is THE most beautiful racket i have ever seen. and i've been playing with mine for a few months now and it 0 chips or scuffs even though i have clashed it several times.
    the only thing better i think would be a Revelation with either no print on it at all like the prototype or a black on black type font that was suggested way earlier in this thread. but then again i love minimalist designs. (dink if you read this. i will gladly pay extra for a Revelation with no print on it! lol)

    ^ You do realize that the woven carbon pattern is not a print... do you? That is is how woven carbon looks like...and that is the beauty of Revelation.

    He meant the print/stickers that are on there (e.g. 'Revelation).....I think he'd just prefer the racket without, just the woven carbon with a clear gloss finish.

    Its a joy reading this whole thread and made me so tempted to try out a panda racket. Had an idea of getting one, string it white then spray/paint on a panda face!
    Would like to try out the head heavy Revelation, anyone know of the price for it? (in either USD or SGD) :D

    Just wondering, if you compare Revelation VS Trinity pro, which one is better and which area? how about Revelation VS MX80?
    *if anyone could give me pictures of Rev, it will be great (and show me how sexy it is)

    There are pictures maybe 10 to 15 pages back. The details I like best are the woven carbon pattern, the sturdy clear coat and the iridescent decals.

    Oh, and the gold butt cap too!

    Rev will be more powerful and faster than both, with much easier accessibility than MX80.
