I believe it was a limited production ball. Not very many were made and now the NIB's (especially with good specs) are becoming hard to find.

good luck finding one.  I have 3 of them.  Love each of them equally.  3 different drillings and each have a different reaction.  3 of the best balls i have ever thrown/owned.

nope only proshops who bought a ceartain amount of Total NV's got one.  I some how managed to get 3 of them used but all in excellent condition farily cheap.  I had 4 but sold one because the specs were similar to one i already had.  Such a great ball.  I wish they did make a full release of it.
