So much going wrong with this entire thread. A lot of bush-leaguers on here. First off, yes, it's a total d*ck move to post smartphone pictures of the frames, when the rep who kindly showed them to you, asked you to respect a privacy agreement. That rep obviously felt highly enough of you to show you the frames long before their intended launch date, and you turned right around and proved why your generation is rapidly destroying civilization. Stein - show some respect towards the industry and respect the widely understood etiquettes. Secondly, what everyone should be talking about is not the paintjobs of the Radicals (which are dramatically different, yes), but more importantly how the flex rating jumps to a whopping 68 RA, and the string pattern opens to 16x19, leaving this once treasured "feel-oriented" frame in the history books. The Radical MP is essentially now, just a Blade 16x19. Looks like the PACIFIC XForce line now stands alone, and should garner the patronage of all those who don't wish to hit the ball ten feet long on every groundstroke, with nothing to show for it but defeats and sore elbows.
