Title: Notice the shelf talker for the new Cyclones?

See the above link if you think I doctored this image...

New core or did someone drop the ball, so to speak?

As seen at my local shop, and I believe those were the shelf talkers that were mailed to them...

I haven't heard of any new cores being moved to the Cyclone line, so I'm guessing that someone dropped the ball.

It's also interesting to see the old Ebonite "E" logo come back from the 80's too.

Oddly, the shelf talker for the purple/orange/yellow Cyclone does not seem to have  changed.

Only the new Cyclones, the Fireball and the Navy/yellow, are different.

Fully aware of that though I didn't mention it... Besides, isn't the P/O/Y being discontinued since Ebonite is tired of people bickering about it being a solid while the rest are pearls?

I believe it has already been discontinued because I got it at a very reduced price from Buddies. I quoted it because it was still on EBo's web site and I just used it to verify the Shelf Talker. Besides they're all supposed to be the same ball, as far as I know.

Both shelf talkers for the new Maxims have the hook rating, RG's and Diffs from the Cyclone...

That happened with the warning sign.  Some media had the vital sign core, some had the exceed core.

I wonder if we should report this to Ebonite. Maybe they don't know this has happened???

None of these links is working, so I am guessing they are on the problem...

Good lord I'd hope so... They've only had a little over a month to do so...
