Color wise in person the wizard looks like columiba's Full throttle, and the Red Zone's color is very similar to the Columbia Messenger TI Low RG.


The Manufacturing style of the balls and most noticably the labels/engraving is now a little different. The serial numbers and USBC logo are now above where the Big B logo is, also for the ones that kept saying they are going to mexico blah blah. this ball is made in michigan still. the style of blending the resins have is different. the red zone looks as shiney or more than most pearls that come out of the box are.

Ric, i don't know. but they just look like blah. like they lack a bit of pop, or flash. that attention grabbing look. it looks like the patterns and swirls in the balls are not quiet the same. i'm probably just crazy but something looks off. But until we see them on the lanes i won't pass judgement. Brunswick has not disappointed me really yet in the last three years selling there products so i don't expect these to be any different. The vapour zone and absolutes have been your best two in the last 5 years easily.

The Wizard looks nice. Strong woman appeal, too, perfect ball to convert your mate to bowling with a pink spare ball...

The Red Zone becomes "worse" the more I get to know about it. Light green engravings on the dark red coverstock... where the hell does THIS ball design come from? Aaaargh! (*bleeds from nose and ears, eyes popping out*)

I don't know I have to go against the grain on this one.  I think the Red Zone looks cooler than the Wizard.  The Wizard's color looks great, but as usual, the logo kills it.

I, and a few others that were in the shop, thought the Red ZOne looked really good. I especially like how it's easy to read on the lane. The Wizard caught the eye of a few youngsters that thought it was cool. It really looks good shined up. It's a bit harder to read on the lane with the multi colors, but man it hooked.

What's up with the red zone logo?  It kinda reminds me of the "Sport Ball" by Columbia.  I was expecting like some type of bullseye or radar locking type logo.  I just found it a bit funny.

The wizard logo is cute...looks like a high school girl's handwriting.  lol

Football with 3 holes where the laces would be. Red Zone under. Looks sweet. Once I clear a little more room out of the bags I will punch one out (or sooner if Scott lets me drill his instead)

both of these balls look good in person the wizard looks a little better than red zone IMHO but the pics on here make the red zone logos look yellow but on the actual ball they are neon green which takes away from the ball but i got a chance to throw the red zone yesterday and the ball is a monster i must say that i have to agree with next level ps when he said that the red zone has the potential to be better than the vapor

Exactly.  The first thing I thought when I saw it was Rainbow Brite, but that's a little cuter.

I can't wait to see a big hulky looking guy using a Rainbow Brite ball!

I was expecting more of a dark mysterious Wizard but they went more with a Wizard that you would see in a child's cartoon.  It should be good for girls though.
