I saw them on cricket insight review they look great and only in limited numbers. The stickers are awesome.Also I didn't find them in UK. I found them only in Australia.

I can't get to the UK to buy a bat so have to buy them blind.

I have a 2010 Distinction and a 2012 Distinction, one with a high middle and one with a low middle. The low middle bat is dying so need to replace it.

I have a BB which is nice but as you can see i can get these bats very cheap.

Is the middle on the Puma 6000 Bionic quite low? What about a Legend, never seen them in the flesh.

I was thinking about getting the MH Retro that they have for a limited time .......... now that would be a classic bat

The MH Distinction keeps popping up. Does anyone know of a forum sponsor who has made the profile for sale/order?

Fletcheruk made a Distinction-style bat for Simmy - big old bat it was too.

Very nice... I'll probably buy something similar (or the same  ;) ) next season as an alterantive to my recently purchased BC Jester.

in my opinion the best bat you can buy ........ wait for the sales and you might get one for £275 ...... still steep if you dont bat that much but they are great.

the next best for me would be a Blank Bat from Canners

Think i might plump for the MH Retro offer MH have on for £250

the spine height on my 2010 distinction is around 72mm and only 2lb 10 ... i think

I have yet to see a Distinciton recreation that comes close, the concaving and spine heights are nowhere near but i think they have toned it down based on the 2012 model i have now. the middle is a lot higher and spine height is only 68mm

Yep a really nice looking bat. I think it will complement my Jester nicely & go well with my M&H soft I have coming. (Thanks to IJC)
