Has anyone heard how much the 750 Series plastic is going to cost? I could see it being $25-28. Just another reason for me not to buy Prodigy.
Higher quality plastic should cost more. There 400 Series is 19.99. So it should be more than that. Its going to be the new CE. LOL. Would you be happy at $24.99.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the Prodigy drivers and mids all in premium plastic? What is this "super" premium talk? Premium is premium. Everything else is just a way to get you to spend more money.

DX/Champ/Star 300/400/750
I have a prototype driver in the 700G. It feels nice, but I wouldn't say its a CE replicate. My newest peave from the Prodigy team is the lack of product knowledge. It is 300,400, 700 (or 750 according to the website), 400G, 700G. I've seen the team members (those with stock in the company) refer to it as G700, G400S, and one more I can't remember. It seems like a simple naming convention and I'm not sure why there is such confusion. Its the number of the series first, followed by a G if it is glass filled. They need to have the correct product information drilled into their heads.
That doesnt hold true afaik
Their "entry level" plastic is the 400s, next is 400G, their pro type plastic is called 500 tho, and then there will be another allegedly more durable 700 series.
I believe the msrp for 400s is supposed to be 17-18 and the other higher grade blend will obv retail for more, regardless of what price the 400s or g is at. Prolly by $1-2 as said before
My local stores sell them for 16.00 and 16.99 at a Replay sports and a PIAS. At PIAS it's cheaper then opto plastic.
If they were $20 a pop I'd never try any of their discs.
Everyone giving prodigy **** about the naming convention of the discs is pretty weak in my opinion. Do you want a new company that's trying to differentiate themselves from the market to continue down the path as every other competitor. The entire "campaign" from what I've seen from prodigy is simple/sleek. I'm not a prodigy fanboy I'm just being objective. I know the plastic feels pretty good and I'll give them a shot just as I do every other company. And I have yet to pay over $16 for any prodigy disc as well, although I've only bought a D1,D4, and two M4's.
If it's confusing even the members of their own team, you don't see how that's a problem? If the naming convention were so sleek and simple, there would be no such confusion. Period.
It's not a problem for the well informed follower of dg news on the internet, it's a problem for Prodigy when it cuts into their bottom line. If somebody is looking for a D4, but ends up with a D1 by mistake, they're likely not to be very satisfied with the product.
I hope Prodigy works out--I want to see companies shake things up and open up new areas for disc golf. But Prodigy really needs to get its act together.
I forget what thread it was from, but somebody said that Prodigy is a team that happens to sell discs, not a manufacturer that happens to have a team.
When you think of it in this light, a lot of their shortcomings can be forgiven.
