I don't think they did, it may have been a prototype that went straight to EQ8. There were rumours, and one of the big suppliers, maybe FLO, had pics of some new beastie, but I don't recall it making it to market.

Should've got a GM1000 :D

Just kidding Stephen! That is a corker of a mount from what I've heard/read/watched. When's it due to land at your doorstep?

That would have cost me double the EQ8 at least :ladyshock:

 

The ship is due in early January so I'm hoping for mid Jan ... end of worst case :)
