Next batch won't say Made in the USA on them. Some value to that first batch imo even if at top shelf price (though granted way overused that core lately). As far as any later batches anybody that pays $165 for a Mexican ball hasn't yet learned Buddies will have it for $100 in six weeks.
I don’t have a crystal ball, but the days of the cheap “Mexican balls†could be slowly ending. Brunswick will be controlling a large percentage of the market, which gives them much more power than they’ve had up to now.
I think it will just depend on Brunswick's plan for the 4 brands. If the plant was truly operating at 50% previously, I wouldn't expect a large increase.
I expect some type of consolidation with the EBI brands. If it was me, I'd keep:
Widow, Paradox, and Statement cores at the top
GB, Web, and Kinetic cores in the middle
Vibe and Cyclone cores along with the light-bulb from the new Beasts
