Why has the price of such a new and awesome gat dropped so severely in such a short time? Does this herald the arrival of a new marker from Eclipse for the world cup?

Anyone with any insider info, all would be deeply thought upon.

As per the last 3 years there will be an 08 ego out at cup.

More than likely to be a cosmetic upgrade with a full revsion in 08.

if you ask an 06 user whether they would instantly want an 07 when it came out, they would say no, and with the 07 being a great gun i cant see major changes. Hopefully the CCU kits and other minor ups should stay compatible.

have you owned either or both?

I have owned both, and the 07 ego is a completely different beast to the 06 and 05.

I loved the 05, actually preferred it to the 06, and now the 07 easily supercedes both.

Most ego 7 owners will tell you the same.

I think thats a typical answer from someone who:
1: Has no idea what they are on about so should not bother posting
2. Has ION in their name!:p

100% true, my ego 5 was lovely, i prefer the trigger on the 06 but apart from that the 06 is the same as the 05 but heavier (never owned an 06 but used em plenty), therefore worse, and now my ego7 blows both out of the water by miles, £500 for such a wonderful gun is stupid, i wouldnt sell mine for less than £600 at this moment, if i wanted to sell.

i had an 06 for a while actually, and borrowed an 07 a couple of times to play with, so maybe not jump to conclusions. Although the ego 6 was pretty upped, so maybe i didnt notice any difference. In any case i didnt see the need to go OMG, i want 1 of these new ones right away, and go buy one. Yes the 07 is extremely impressive, but still i think that the 06 had nothing wrong with it. Both good guns.

On a side note, the character attack is not necessary really, and this isnt the first time both of you have had a little go.

Lighten up buddy, isnt that the idea of a sticky out tounge smiley??
I have owned all and quite a few of them, I have an SL-74 coming and I am sure I will have a couple of 08s when they arrive. If people had the same thought about "Oh I wont run out and buy one" then I am sure PLANET wouldnt have a waiting list when they bring out new models. Everyone wants the latest marker and they will buy it so your post was a bit stupid from an EGO owners point of view.
