Title: X FACTOR ACE VS. PRODIGY
Post by: stormdamage on February 09, 2012, 08:44:44 AM

Can someone please tell me the similarities/differences between the Ace and the Prodigy? I am a bit confused as to exactly what kind of cover the Prodigy has on it. Is the E.M.T. supposed to give it the same kind of cover as a pearl/particle? I love my Aces, but one is just about toast and the other won't be far behind. I either need to find a NIB Ace or something else that will fill the void. Please enlighten me. Your wisdom is appreciated.

The R2X with ETM in the Prodigy is much stronger than the Accu-Tread particle in the xfactor Ace.

Also, the Ace is asymmetric, while the Prodigy is symmetric. Barring finding an NIB Ace for several hundred dollars or another of the xfactor balls, the closest thing that you might be able to find is an original Shift, which is R2S pearl particle (and I have 2 of them).

Found a Shift. Guy wants $150 for it. No dice. Does storm still make a pearl/particle or is the Prodigy as close as I'm gonna get?

In the current line, that's it. BTW, I only want 120 shipped for my NIB  Shifts, or trade for current Storm/Roto NIB

 I'd be all over it but I throw 16s. Anything lighter and I throw it too hard.
