*** Edit *** Cocker pic!

I have 2 new markers... the first one is a Works Cocker with an E-Blade that I pumped out with a CCM pump kit and a translucent green pump handle.   It works fantastic and if you want to switch to semi... it takes about 5 minutes to put the pneumatics back on.   Oh, and since it is an E-Blade, I don't have to re-time it... it is good to go!   Unfortunately, I don't have a picture yet... I'll try to grab a camera from someone here at work and snap a pic in the shop.

***EDIT*** PICTURE OF THE EBLADED PUMP!!!

The newest addition arrived last night...  a Planet Eclipse Nexxus Dark Trooper.   I like it alot!   LOL!

Let me verify it for you... I've owned 6 of them (2K2, GZ, Empire, Storm, Ripper and Russian Legion) and everyone of them went down at some point.   3 fried boards, 2 smoked solenoids, LPR problems, broken barbs.   But hey, you go ahead and read pbreview and base your decision to purchase a marker based on that.   Oh and BTW, if you happen to find these $1600 markers for $1000, buy 10 and we'll sell them and split the profits.

I don't bash markers lightly... e-retards I'll bash all day long, but I won't bash a marker without having personal experience.

** Edit**  PS... sorry if I sound a little put out, how would you react if you just bought one of the elite markers in the world and someone made that comment?

I wasn't saying your marker was bad at all, I was just saying what I would have done, I am not too "knowledgable" on Planet Eclipse guns, But I have used Intimidators and love them. You're gun looks great, that's a given, performance I don't know about, that's why I was saying that I (I) would have gotten a Intimidator. But I do have a quick ? You seem to know alot about high-end electros.... I hear alot of people saying Angels are bad now.. what do you think? (I'm thinking about buying one) and I apologize if I offended you, I wasn't trying to I was just stateing what I would have done based on my experiance.

^^ Understood... my experience with the newer Angels has been all positive.   I was a huge fan of the "older" 2k1 style Angels with the .45 grip before the iR3 and Speed came out with the 90* frame.   Back in the day a Dark Angel with a Revvy was THE killing machine for front/mid guys.  

In my opinion, WDP went through a dark period with the Speed and the Angel 4.   They lost alot of customers with these markers, I would imagine that this was partially due to the success of the Matrix and Intimidator that became their direct competition.   Their quality came back with the G7 (my stepson shoots an Arsenal G7) and after messing around with their new Angel One on Saturday, I think you can place them back on the list as one of the best brands in the world.

Angel 1 is their newest Angel correct? And I think $300 is kinda...well you could get an Ion.. but if you spend $600 you get the amazing ShOckEr!...still, if I had an Angel, I don't think I could round up the courage to take it out on the field...

Yeah.. I like the G-7's alot.... but this new Angel 1 is supposed to be completly slimmed down, only weigh like two pounds, stuff like that... basically it's supposed to be the lightest, sleekest, most advanced angel yet...then again, every new angel is classifed as the "lightest, sleekest, most advanced angel yet" lol

^^ The A1s seem to shoot great, but they are little small for my hands.

blonde... I know how you feel.   But that is what they are made for.   Dirt and paint can be cleaned off... and the anno is suprisingly hard to damage.

Yeah.. I know...I've only owned three electro's though, Spyder Pilot ACS, Spyder Imagine, and A-5 w\ E-Grip....would you recommend going straight to an Angel, or getting an Ion or Shocker first?
