Oh wow you have an original MMi3 too with the wrap around back sticker.

There's nothing special about them, I just like to collect things I've designed or worked on. For the wall I guess.

I pre ordered the mmi3 on your marketing hype.

I also won the midweek league averages that year with an avg of 75! Was a cracking bat(still is to be fair)

The cor probably isn't for your wall. I didn't knock it in and and edge got destroyed by a full toss. And lots of tape was used to hold it together!
Did two more seasons after that!

Both have never been refurbed

A really good read. I have a "general" question about the pads, were they uncomfortable? I have been told that they were but don't quite believe it yet.

Good reading Tom. With the benefit of hindsight things could have been a lot different for the mongoose brand.
