Friggin' teasers, I wish companies would just release a product. They do all this stuff then I lose interest. Like with the Spire for example. I had lost complete interest until I started hearing good reviews.

Seeing that this gun is coming out the 26th, I was actually going to buy a Empire Axe this week... Does this mean that the Axe will drop in price? I would hate to buy the gun for $459 this week and see the gun drop down in price a week later.

I wouldn't think so. Like how a new Ego doesn't change the price of the Etek, or a new DM doesn't change the price of the Rail.

I don't understand why they need my home phone and address to send me emails?

Yes, the Vanquish is supposedly going to be well over $1000.

the axe will still be one of the best mid ends. Too bad the axe won't be a "pro" gun since teams like infamous are probably gonna be shooting these new empire guns,

Pro gun doesn't mean anything. Spyders were pro guns at one point.

Awkward moment when it is manufactured in Taiwan like the Axe is.

Pro gun doesn't mean anything. Spyders were pro guns at one point.

They were, but those things were closer to intimidators in spyder bodies than still being spyders.

I'd be surprised, it'd be similar to some PE teams being forced to eteks.... What would be much more likely is empire giving the option of all three too all their pro players. So you'd have a team of say two impulses, two vanquishes, and an axe. Similar To how a bob long team would shoot both g6r's and Vic's

I might be wrong but I kinda remember hearing that over in the Millennium series some of the lower divisional teams are shooting Etek"s and Etha's instead of the Ego's and Geo's. but I might be remembering incorrectly. but in this case i can see some of the lower divisions playing with axe's while the pros shoot the new high ends.

couple reasons I think certain teams will still be shooting axes. I've heard from a pretty good source vicious is having some sick custom axes made, the difference between the axe and etek thing, the axe really works as a pro level gun, the etek is a watered down ego.
