Optimus Solid & Sky Rocket
« on: April 22, 2015, 10:12:17 AM »
Got a message from my distributor today about a couple of new balls coming out, optimus solid and sky rocket.

I had a feeling that we would be seeing a solid Optimus pretty soon but wasn't sure if they would release a hybrid first. 

US release date for both is 22nd June.

I can't wait to get my hands on the Optimus Solid, i did like the original Optimus but found it too condition specific and a little jumpy for my liking, I'm hoping that the solid cover will solve that issue.

As for the Sky rocket, I've found that the original is useful after the lanes start to break down and at the moment can't see that i would have the need for it.  But saying that I'll probably somehow still end up drilling one up...  :-\

Storm's official video for the Sky Rocket is out:

The guy who's in the video lacks any sort of charisma or personality, though.  I wish Steve Kloempken had done it.  But it's still an opportunity to see the ball roll a little bit.

I saw this on YouTube yesterday. I'd like to see more of the ball.

I'm gonna get a Pitch Black but I need something a little stronger than my Ride but more in the backend. The Punch Out is too touchy in our house even for guys that have messed with the surface
