The Jagged Edge Solid and Night Prowler look the most interesting to me. I'm curious to see what the specs and intent are

The night Prowler is probably a hybrid white pearl black solid with a matte finish, at least that's what I'm hoping

The Jagged Edge Solid and the Poison Pearl looks good to me.  Very interesting to find out more about the pieces!  And the Melee Jab SE I really would like to know what this ball is.

Buddies has information up on most of the releases now and honestly the Hero is what interests me the most. I was hoping for something a little different with the Jagged Edges but I'm not too impressed now. Still waiting on the info for the DV8 releases

This is funny to me...  There is nothing really new from Radical if you really think about it...

“kinda off topic but that jagged edge hybrid looks like a hyper cell skid”
“And the Radical squatch solid looks like a storm super soniq”

Forgive me for the rant…   LOL.  :D  There comes a time where one must say “Enough Is Enough!”  LMAO!   8)
 
Let me start by saying that right now, I usually buy Storm, Roto Grip, and Radical bowling balls.  However, if a ball from any company really appeals to me, I will purchase it.  Regardless of who made the ball.  That includes most all of the major ball companies including Brunswick or EBI, and their sister ball companies.
 
HOWEVER, in my mind, Radical Bowling is starting to become the “Copy Cat” company in many bowler’s eyes.  WHY?...   :D
   
Simply because those guys at Radical have become the least imaginative company in terms of innovative ideas and balls out of all the companies around.  They appear to be copying every popular thing that Storm and Roto Grip does even down to the exact same colors of their “new” bowling balls.

Now, most of us “DO NOT” buy based on colors alone.  However, if a ball has a good color combination and it hooks, it’s a "win" for those who wish to purchase the new balls.  RADICAL used to be the company that was sort of innovative to me.  They used to be the company that was not trying to do what all the other companies were doing in terms of looks or reaction in their balls.  They made stuff that hooked on the back end – Period.

Now that they have been fully “assimilated” by BIG B, originality and innovation is out the door.  LOL.   :D   Now, if a pink, red, or whatever popular ball sells from another company really well, you can be sure that the innovative boys over at Radical will put an existing core in a similar ball to make some money.  Wow, that’s RADICAL.  LOL.   :o

Case in point…
The Conspiracy Hybrid looks like the STORM PHYSIX, which is also a hybrid, by the way.  The Squatch Solid looks like the STORM SUPER SONiQ.  The Zing Solid looks just like the ROTO GRIP HALO.  And the core is nothing new.  Wow, that’s Radical!  OMG!  I’m LMAO!

What’s next from Radical?  Will there be a Zing Pearl?  Will it look like the Storm Astro Physix or the IQ Emerald?...  Or will they make a new ball called the Wee! Pearl?

WEE are just like all the others….  We are not Radical at all.  Let the hater’s HATE!

LMAO!

Radical may copy like all the ball companies do but it beats Mo asym super hook specials that roll out at the arrows on anything but a flood few will ever see, like in the past.  Its nice to see them releasing other types of balls even if not super original. 
Here today.  Gone tomorrow.
