All of the specs listed at www.angelforce.tv are actual, so if that's what you mean, you need only wait until it's released to see them "come to fruition".

nice to see an angel marker that you can actually shoot out the box however (seeing as it comes with an ASA for once)
:rolleyes: Next it's going to be "Why doesn't it come with a hopper?". One thing that will be interesting is seeing how in the hell you get a macroline hose from that ASA to the mini-reg in real life. They just don't bend in the real world that same as they do in CAD drawings.

The preorder price on angel force website starts at $1149 so will be the same starting price as all the other WDP top end markers (i.e. no one pays retail but gets its for about half price for being a 'supported' team)

i just noticed that they're using OLED's. Thats rather high tech and flash...considering they were only just finished/invented a month or so ago. Im well impressed.

Techno-pressive indeed! When I first read it I thought it just said "LED", when I realized it was an OLED display, I nearly had a geek-attack. OLED's have been around a while, they're just now seeing commercial use. They've been using them for small displays like the kind you'd find in a paintball marker for about a year on a small-scale basis.

*edit* Beat me to it!

things like self cleaning eyes as well as zero kick and soft bolt contacts have been spouted before from *various* places with little to back them up.

From the MT's? I doubt it. They speak on behalf of WDP, they wouldn't bull**** you about trivial things a couple weeks before the release: WDP wouldn't let them. Though the features may not really be as glamorous as they sound in the ad (the nature of ads, after all). For example. self-cleaning eyes means they drilled holes in the bolt to correspond to the position of the eyes so that when you shoot, it blows a puff of air onto the eyes. Zero kick is obviously impossible (due to the imutable laws of physics), so it really means they're using a lighter hammer and shorter ram, but still, the features exist if the MT's are telling you so: bank on it.

well shows how much attention ive been paying. I read an article not too long ago about how they were having problems with the longevity of the blue phosphorous dye. Guess it must be on the larger sheets used to illuminate rooms.

Still - pretty fu*king sweet :)
