OK OK..enough is enough... Who remembers the Quantum line? Anyone? Apparently not, cause if I'm not mistaken, they used the Mushroom core. But, when Brunswick released these cores in the Monster series noone jumped on them for passing off old cores in new balls! As a matter of fact, some will argue that the Fire Quantum is possibly the best ball ever. As a matter of fact, check out this pic of the Fire Quantum:
http://www.bowlingballreviews.com/ball.asp?ballid=2125OOPS...I'm sorry, I guess if you've seen one...[taking deep breath] Light burgundy colored ball, with yellow logos, with a mushroom core, with a Brunswick PK coverstock...you've seen 'em all!!!
What everyones problem is, is that they want the next greatest thing. I know that I like new equipment, but you know what? If my old Cuda/C can still knock em down just fine, then why am I going to complain if they re-release the core/cover combination? As a matter of fact, I'll pick another one up! They're trying to make a few bucks...can't get mad at a buisness for that. Unfortunatly, their scheme was found out. I think there's plenty of good reviews on our site talking about how good the Monster Bruiser is...so why wouldn't the Elite Whatchamadoohickie 47 be just as good of a ball? Cause it doesn't have an over-sized letter "B" stamped on it? I myself, would love to get one of the alien balls, to sit next to my clearballs Alien Head!

PS...I don't remember seeing ANYONE get on Columbia's @$$ when they released the Flipside Wild, which was a Scout/R...but $10 MORE in price...guess it's cause they didn't try to start a new company with it?!?
