    Novel theory. But if that's the case then they'd have to pull the JS10, JS9, JS Ahmad, JS Natsir and HX800 family off the shelves too.

    perhaps the reason for the recall? From the catalogue pictures, the mk2 doesnt have the strip grommets

    But then why does my HX800P have the old style of Pyrofil decal on the shaft if that's the case? Its also a racket that has come out much later than the TK9900.

    Ah makes more sense I'd have to agree if it's the grommets. They're made of recycled materials I swear.

    What I want is that paint job on a 4U 5/5 with a small head and victor feedback.

    Honestly. That feels like a long way off. At least on the feedback part. They don't seem to be moving back in that direction any time soon =(

    The onigiri was nice, just a touch too soft.

    Oni had great feel. It was just too floppy for that balance.

    What do we think, viewers:

    Still a looker without the shoulderpads?:D

    (No offsets on the single grommets, by the way, so don't forget your loops.)

    So I spoke to someone earlier on wed about tk9900 and he said they are canning it and there will not be a release. The person I spoke to is the distributor for Victor in southern Cali. I don't know how many times he has been in Taiwan but he goes quite often and has spent time with Victor's people. In no means I am confirming or saying this is true. I am letting the community know what I have been told by someone that deals with victor products exclusively. So you can take it with a grain of salt.

    Yeah I heard the same thing, the TK9900 won't have a release. Sucks, because I was looking forward to it.

    What on earth is wrong with that thing? Does it explode when your hands are getting too hot or stuff like that?!
