This saddens me :(

I hope so, else it's just a different color Volt.

Speaking of colors, I'm not real impressed with these two new ones. They seem quite, er, "Ridiculous" to me. Am I being radical?

I was hoping we'd get the Flux Hybrid and Cruise that showed up on the approved list a couple weeks ago. The Flux Hybrid is Purple which is much more appealing to me than the orange.

Good balls, ugly and/or boring colors sums it up right. They might need to come up with something like the Motiv process that takes consistently boring looking shells and spices them up with cool graphics. Shelf appeal is a real thing! The two Extremes look good, though.
At least they strike a lot. 8)

Great one two punch!

I currently throw the orange Flux and I only know of three other people that throw it!
Looks great going down the lanes to me!

it's the Charlie Brown, Great Orange Pumpkin! LOL!
