Saw pictures on Facebook of the new Morrum, Record, and Rocket. They all look pretty good.

If they were smart, they'd relaunch the Gen2 Premier with a slight facelift or something. :D

WOW. I'm excited! I've been holding my finger back from pulling the trigger on a Revo STX and dreaming of a new Morrum..

Still over a year away but it still gets me excited!

The reels are for model year 2014, but I think they're shipping this September. They should be at ICAST next month.
