It looks like the Wrecker might be more on the solid side of hybrid than the Rising Star is. The Rising always looked pearl to me and the way it reacts in the back end, it "acts" like it is more on the pearl side.
One thing the RG line has always been is new releases intertwine perfectly with "old" releases. For example, the Berserk was a medium/upper line hybrid that replaced the Nomad Daggers spot. Berserk apppears to be more solid based and also came factory 4000 vs Daggers looking more pearl and coming reacta shined.
The Disturbed catches my eye as that is a classic Hank weight block design. From what I gathered at a couple of Roto seminars, Hank likes to design blocks that if you use a large thumb hole in (any kind of interchangable thumb system with 1 1/2" bits or larger), you should miss more of the block than other weight block designs. The Cell started this trend and it has continued on thru the higher end releases. This way the core dynamics are not "gutted" out when you add these craters for a thumb hole.
Anyway, everything looks like classic Roto Grip moves and should all compliment any of us "Roto heads" in the crowd.
