I'm winking with you on that. However, since Discmania parses out the production (and plastics), and uses 'dedicated production' as a reason for sameness in these boxes, I am giving them an opportunity to further parse it out in their own words.

Fair enough.
 
If there was a chance at getting cool stuff in the mystery boxes I'd be game. No way I want a box filled with Yikun or Trilogy stuff.

My last mystery box from a year or two ago had a P-line P2, an MD5, a Royal Rage FD2 misprint, a P3X, a PD2, and other cool stuff.

That was a box filled with Innova stuff?
 
Am I the only one who thinks it was a wise move for them to include two different flexes of the putter?

People will more than likely prefer one over the other and want backups/practice putters.

Not only does Lat design their discs, they also make them using Lat plastic.

Evolution line perhaps but certainly not the Originals plastic.

I know Lat64 makes the Evo line and helped Discmania set up the new factory, , , i just didn´t think Tomas would design the Original line.

And looking at that video it did not really feel like Eagle did that much "Designing his own disc" more told Tomas to make one.

Some of this is partially true. Companies occasionally use outside marketing help, design work, I.T., etc. It's not all that uncommon. However, that does not mean we say "Hey Thomas, make us some discs" and he says, "Okay!". All things are created to our specifications and intentions. He is an expert designer and when it comes to especially unique things like the Mutant, naturally he was a big help with something so creative. Our resources are best spent instead in the areas of our business that we are very good at.

Rainmaker topic, Eagle ran through his design wishes and several prototypes over the course of some months. His dream is able to come to life through his knowledge as a skilled player and presenting that idea to the design team to make it a reality. Allen Iverson certainly didn't make his own shoes by hand.

In a world dominated by social media, where are the quick videos of discmania "manufacturing" their own discs? Not a single tour, or clip of discs actually being made. Weird that they are so proud of making their own molds now but all of us are relying on a single guy just saying that it's happening. I don't believe it for a second. "In house" is inside the latitude factory, until Jussi proves otherwise.

Same machines bro, stop being silly.

Same type of machine for sure, but your thinking is incorrect. These are made in our factory to our specifications. Machines that mold Evolution line as well are currently in transition over to this factory as well. Most of which has already been accomplished.
 
You are asking him to show video of the machines and he's showing you a machine producing discmania discs and it even has discmania branding, but you still dont want to believe it. To me it seems like you're not going to accept any evidence at all, no matter how strong

I mean, it has a discmania sticker. So I guess it's settled. It's a commercial of Jussi with a blurry background. I honestly don't believe anything they say. Which is a shame because I like two of the new new molds. The plastic feels great. I shouldn't have derailed the thread for all the people who love them. My bad folks. Hopefully they prove me wrong one day. But this video wasn't it.

I like the shoe comparison. Also appreciate how you laid out Eagles design input.

I have a background in plastic injection molding. I've been in a toolroom actually building molds. It's long been a peeve of mine when some random person "designs" anything. The people, like Tomas, that design molds are INCREDIBLY skilled individuals with very particular skill sets. No one off the street, pro athlete or not, is actually "designing" anything. At best, they are advisers.

I just want to say that I LOVE that Discmania has a support person interacting with us on this thread. I appreciate and value the direct, real-time answers and insight you bring to this space. Thank you!

Now back to the fun stuff…when will we see glow plastic in the form of an Iron Samurai and/or Sky God?? It's hard to wait for the productions updates; give us something to look forward to at the beginning of 2022!

Hey thanks! It's fun interacting with everyone in our own little world here. Sometimes we haven't managed to stay on top of communication as much as we'd like to but it should be pretty consistent moving forward, maybe a few times a week. We pride ourselves in being open with customers and giving them the most honest answers we have to offer.

Iron Samurai and Sky God, one will be glow for sure :). Both to come in early 2022 as well. Hopefully we can push out a production update no later than 1-2 weeks from now.
