The ACTUAL picture is on the Blockbuster's website not some lousy copy you put on your site.




Actually My picture was emailed to me from a distributor. Take a closer look they are different pics, mine does not have the glare from the lighting.

I bet the pic on Billy's website is the real one. A Storm ball can't be that ugly like what we see on Blockbuster's (Look at the logo! How could that be!).

OMG!! They are both the real balls, but the one on blockbuster was taken from an actual camera. The pictures are of the same side and same logo of the ball =, the logo just looks alot smaller in real life...! neither one is a fake.



You sure? Look at the fonts (especially the "P"), look at the logo size, look at those fancy things surrounding the word "Paradigm". It is quite obvious that they are different, aren't they? I believe that the blockbuster one is a test ball released early.

Grow up people. Blockbuster always takes real pictures of balls they sell, while most companies make and distribute a computer generated one. On almost every computer generated ball image (Regardless of company), the logo is two or three times larger than it actually is. The color may be slightly off too, however most companies are far better than they used to be (~3-4 years ago)...

It's not just the size of the logo. Nearly everything printed on the ball are different in the two pics. Anyway, let's see what it really looks when it's released, grown-up.

When my staff ball shows up I will take a pic and post it on the website for everybody. BUT for now I have the one I was emailed from a distributor.

Didn't think a new ball pic would generate such a large amount of BS.

You should be worried or interested in the ball reaction rather than the pic.

mmike,
    I think you need to really let him know how you feel. I think you should quit holding back and let them have it. LOL
    As for the ? which ball logo is correct we'll have to wait for the ball to come out and see for ourselves. I'm going without lunch for a month so I can buy one of these. Can't wait.

OMFG, they changed the logo slightly from the computer generated pic; it's the freaking apocalypse. Why don't you go sue Storm for "Lying about the size and extra lines on the logo". I'm sure that'll go through well...

OKay guys enough about how the ball looks.  Anyone got any info on the what the ball is actually supposed to do, and the reason why it is $30 more than any other Storm high-end stuff?
