Well latley I have been thinking Highly of a new marker, and last Friday I met it.  Its a "Turtle" Angel A4, your probably all thinking of the "turtle" cockers, but no...  Ok anyway. Pegleg paintball(local proshop) ( http://www.peglegpaintball.com/ - http://www.peglegpaintball.com/ ) has a team called the Turtles(quite good)and pegleg has made a deal with WDP That they will Make ONLY 20 Turtle Angel A4's   BUT There are also other Pegleg teams that are going to snatch some for there own use. They are a special Anno'd Flies, its a Green/Black fade, they look jaw dropping... There marked EXTREMLY low since this is a "personal" Shop selling them.  They are $700 FLAT No tax. BUT School is starting and I need to start thinking about that as well...

Anyway... Here is where I'm a little... Sceptic, about buying one.  I'd Have to sell my E98c to get it, I'm praying that I could Some how get $300-400 out of it.

So... you think it would be wise of me to sell my "Special" 98c, and then walk in and get a once in a lifetime deal for a VERY Rare A4 Fly?  or should I just keep my Ways and watch them get sold left and right?

If you really want it and can afford it, I say go for it. Flys are kickass.

Is it a A4 Fly?
Or, a flied A4?

I doubt you're going to get 300-400 for the tippmann. I have seen e98c go for 200.

I say, get the angel. You wont be disappointed.

Hmmm, I am torn, to sell, or not to sell, I'd say part out the things we do not need on the 98(or what we can replace), and then add it with what we have, then, borrow the rest.

Thats a hard decision, its hard to give up something you know and love for something new.  Kind of like your dog dying but getting a new one.  Good always comes out in the end unless your dog is a horrible people biting kind.  Thats my best analogy for it.

The Fly has the "Fly internals". They are different then any angel before it. Reduces kick, improves effenicy. Comes stock with eyes.

A "Flied" A4 is a A4 that has been milled and drilled for eyes, and has a fly board in it.

i say go with whatever you feel is right or you might could keep both and maybe ask for a raise in your allowance or borrow some money from your parents or friends.  If im in a tight spot on a once in a lifetime deal, thats what i do.

I'm thinking of keeping the pulse and doing some things to it.

Such as, putting a V-2 Ripper Frame on it(90º Frame)

putting an Equalizer board in it, and of course putting that 03' Rat Body on it.

Then After that is all Settled get it Annodized by Spec Ops. but can't decided if I want anything special or just get it painted.

meh?

Those Angels aren't as special as I thought. The only thing that makes them so cheap is not because they are "personal" sold. Its because WDP tolled them that they had some left over parts from previous angels, and they would sell to him EXTREMLY cheap. I also don't think there are very many of these "turtle Angels" that are the same. Hell anyone of you guys can make a "turtle angel" all you have to do is get a Anno'd Angel frame Green/Black. thats about where the Speciality ends.

Meh it'd still be cool.  I still say go Angel, but it's all up to you Panda.  If you love your Pulse, keep it and pimp it out.  Otherwise, go for a cheap Angel.

Yea I've already invested $175  into my pulse, there is no selling or turning back now.

Oh... Pam is going to look so good with her new Rat Body.
