Was about to post that picture. So far they've released that picture and a 5 second vine video which doesn't tell us a great deal. Kings of the infuriating tease are GM.

This launch is to GM staff. It is what caused the confusion last year. Senior staff used their own personal twitter accounts, along with the official GM twitter feed to suggest the launch date was 'x' - when in fact this was the date of their in house launch. The odd picture similar to the one above surfaced but that was it. It was at least a day or 2 before anything meaningful came to light (apart from the stuff Tom found which he was instructed to remove pretty quickly)

Madsen was wearing the new pads briefly during his knock against Middlesex but changed them.

According to a few retailers at the launch today: Octane, Icon, Zona & Argon still in range. New bats are Six6 and Purist.

I'm hopeful that we'll get some direct feedback to the forum...

Should have put two and two together when the image of a possible purist leaked.

If you look on the front of the 2013 catalogue, you can see them all there in a box, stickered up ready to go.

Where's the catalogue?

Was thinking same.
Just spent 15mins in the "gm 2013" thread to no avail. Good discussion on f2 f7 though

Is the image that leaked a while back.

Is an image on the front of the catalogue. If you look closely at it (on the catalogue anyway) you will spot the Purist stickers.

Do you know if the Octane and Argon be continued??
With the Six6 being such a similar shape, can they really sell the Octae, Argon & Six6 at the same time?
