King Pin, dynothane products have close connections with storm, though I do not remember exactly what they are, and have shared cores before Take the element for example. The element core is almost identical to the skybolt/power bolt core, and was first by storm by storm, and the same applies in this situation.
To answer your other question and clarify my point, AZO is or was bieng made overseas by ebonite and has been for a little less than a year, this is why this question was brought up. This ball is very new or may not be released yet.
PS: The black dynosaur has a modified perfect piece core in that picture...
