Mike Dole shared photos of them, and the local staffer to me had a shipping notice so these are out in the wild already.

... Well look at that. The numbers are slightly different, but that shape is damn near identical. Just without the Brunswick crown. I bet it does roll good. Going to have to keep an eye on that one.

Take Brunswick cores and Brunswick coverstocks, put them together and brand them 6 different companies.... Radical kind of does their own thing.

Redemptions kinda look like the Thug core pinned at the bottom.

It makes sense though. Brunswick isn't going to start producing cores that EBI was working on right away, they haven't had near enough time to test that stuff out yet. So here comes the re-brands and maybe things they've been working on but didn't make the final cuts when their other releases came out.

I'm wondering that the GSV 2.0 coverstock actually is on the Omni. We know it's not that, and it would be different resin bases with the same formula anyways. Man if that actually does roll like a Mastermind... I had the Intellect and still have the Einstein. Great, great balls.

They just announced 4 new balls from the new brands, and now 4 new balls from Bruns/Radical/DV8. 8 new balls in the last 2 weeks.

The GSV2.0 is on the Omni, as the Omni Pearl was already shipped overseas with the GSV 2.0 pearl coverstock on it. So those balls were already poured , and more than likely poured in Hopkinsville.

The overseas Omni has a completely different block and no dynamicore so those were definitely poured before the closure. The US Omni solid is poured in the Brunswick plant. Coverstock formulas are shipped around all the time, as Brunswick and 900 Global have poured Storm balls with Reactor and other covers before.

Hammer's teaser video with Bohn's kid for the Redemption solid wasn't all that impressive. Ball looked early and lazy, could be layout/pattern he was on, but definitely didn't do anything for me.

I personally don't have high expectations on either of the Redemptions. Core looks almost exactly like the Thug core which I don't remember it being liked by a lot. Motion seemed really hit or miss

Omni looks like it could be really good depending on the cover.

Allure and Fugitive both look like good house shot balls

It seems like companies are making "tour first" balls that can read in those huge loads of oil in the fronts and mids. The league bowlers are going to buy the new stuff regardless.
