Default New Cab-21 released in the US?

It has come to my attention that there is a new Cab-21 released in the US. (In many reputable online shops)

I am wondering if any of us have clear pictures of the racket?

Are you gonna buy up the entire stock now that you've found the US version?

I have called some shops and they said it's the remake of the old ones. However, some web pages said "new color" so I am not sure now......

Maybe its a remake of the old one with a new color ?

I'm pretty interested in some cab21's too. I might get 1 or 2.

Saw the new color of Cab21 in the 2005 Yonex catalogue (SP). It now available in Singapore ~S$120.

I've done the search and found the same question asked but no answer so I'll ask again

What are the handling differences between Cab-21, Cab-21 SP and Cab-21 Special?

From what I've seen in shops (unable to tell handling difference because 21SP is unstrung and 21 Special is strung)

Cab-21 SP, Made in Japan, 2004 date code, 2U G5, grey, gloss finish, thin shaft, s$95

Cab-21 Special, Made in Japan, 2004 date code, 2U G4, purple, matt finish, thick shaft, s$75

Looking for a reasonably priced racquet to supplement my Cab-10, and both 21-Sp and 21 special cost less than an 'entry-level' Taiwan MP28.

Cab-21 Special is not in purple color but Gold color with black matt finish.(More like a Darth Vader's weapon)
