I don't see how that's surprising, considering what kind of players post here.

Looks like a def single tube. shocker/Ion maybe? Tape is to hide the body design. We did that with the Diadems with AM for a few games. Lets see who picks it up for US distribution.

true.
i always thought people here were alittle more accepting though.
and with all the smart parts haters (i being one of them) here i'd think that they would welcome a new (possibly) macdev gun

Perhaps but lets not forget that while we all love the sport of paintball we are by and large a Forum dedicated to Older markers. Sure we like some of the newer stuff but for the most part every one here has guns that are older then your average PBN member.

Besides they DO have some valid points. 1 its body IS wrapped in tape. You knew that was going to be pointed out at least once. 2 From the "Pre-Production" model it does look like a tape wrapped Ion or Shocker. 3 Its an Electro and as preveously mentioned most people here prefer older pumps and mechs. 4 the name DOES bring pokemon to mind. Hell just scanning the title I though some one was making a Poke'mon joke.

Not to flame or bash but come on ya had to expect it would get some flack. Hell there are many Tippmann fans on the site and they join in laughing at the Drill-Do I mean composit gun they put out not to long ago.

I want to know how it works. Something about it made me think of a Nova for some reason.

Interesting! Anyone know what the name means? I'm curious.

I'm actually happy to see a new marker design(assuming it's new). This yearly model crap annoys me, especially considering how a lot of people get so excited about something with a new number and an ounce shaved off.

That "tape" actually looks like a type of protective sticker(s) that come on everything from guns to watches... Note, there is no "tape" on the action shots.
