Looks like the more stable champ mold is going to have the new layout stamp (like the Thunderbird) so any with that stamp will be the more stable mold.
Okay, so Blizzard, DX, Pro, Gstar and champ are all out. Where's the freakin' star?

I would imagine that thrower value dropped off with the latest and all future runs being the same as the 1x so most likely used prices will drop but new should be holding their value for collectors at around $40-50.

Maybe it has to do with availability of the source material?

I have an old mold beast that is as soft as Gstar in totally clear red Champ. I never felt anything like it before or since. Since its so soft, its totally flat top as well. Very strange and beautiful disc. From the same era I have two old mold Orcs that are slightly translucent and pearly as seems to be the norm.

Currently out on the course. Been driving exclusively with the new old mold beast, no patent no. and the new stamp "layout". This disc is as every bit reliable and beautiful as the first beasts that came out. If I were to put a rating to it, I'd have to say it is a 10, 5, -1, 3 to the truest sense. Does have a tid of turn but comes right out. It is also super windy today and I have been hyzer flipping into the wind no problem with it. On a flat hole with no wind I threw it flat and it turned a little bit, but fame right out and finished with a bit of forward fade. So happy that it's back. This is the driver I have been waiting for, for a very long time.
Dang...now I'm going to have to get 10 of them. That's EXACTLY what I like my beat in Orcs to be.

It's crazy how perfect it was. I know it's a speed "10" but it's distance potential combined with the control is so unreal. I can think of only
One bad throw I threw today and it was total user error. Every other time I was for the most part putting slight hyzer, it would flip flat and just go. I even put it on a couple anny lines and it flexed out. My goal is to find one in star to beat in much quicker, but I definitely have a distance driver again that I fully believe in.

I don't know about that, but the star fire in pro plastic flies similar to what I think you're looking for so you might give that a shot

Stun throws them, he says they are just slightly less OS than an Orc.

yea seriously! Save me some though I need to stock up on those
tough for me to say what they're like off the shelf. I have a beat in one thats probably -3, 2. I think a worn in pro would be a great one to have with a couple other stars at different stages of wear

Are the jl beasts on the factory store old mold? How can one be sure their getting an old mold beast without being there in person to look at it?

I bought a Dx that showed up at Academy. Love throwing it, but It's just not as long as my go to distance drivers. if Terns didn't exist, I would consider going to these in different weights and plastics.
