Of course they probably can't have the same numbers as our sets. If we really wanted some I suppose they may be able to do a special request.

Hmmm this sounds fun! This MPP3 is just getting better all the time.
Looking forward to seeing all and discussing the new Revo mazes, merchandise and gold.

In the description of the V2 black Obsession it says designed by our new engineers. Is the maze new, or the same black maze we're familiar with?

Also note that both Green Revomazes and the Silver are no longer listed on the site. Looks like they've been retired. Now the only way to purchase them new is the CE set.

They may not be listed but their pages still exist if you know where to look :)

New V2 Metals and Obsessions pull outs

Post by Trenchx »

Trying to find the bronze clue and got sidetracked with some awesome news I caught on the website. It looks like we got some version 2 metals and Obsessions you can pull out the maze on.

Pretty cool stuff. The design actually looks even better for the metals. Its got a sleeker look to it.

Obsession looks pretty slick too but the metal one is just so damn shiney!

It is nice to know that you are updating it for new potential puzzlers (as well as potential collectors who have grown to love these puzzles)

I am looking forward to new Revo-puzzles too which hopefully puts a new twist on the great formula.

In the meantime, got to get back to my Bronze Extreme V1.....Click!

If I'm honest, I'm not a fan of the new shape. The Ridges on the main body help with grip, and add detail that is otherwise lost, and personally I'm not in love the the coved edges. But that's just me. Good to know that others like it.

I agree.
I still want them all though!! I may buy a black obsession just so I can see the core.

Ok guys, here's a little more info on the new stuff...
  • the v2 Extremes will not be serialised
  • the v2 Extremes will not contain a map or certificate and therefore are not related to the competition (all the spaces are filled anyway so it a moot point really)
  • the v2 bronze is still a bronze (*breaths a sigh of relief*) but has a few minor updates/corrections
  • the black v2 obsession is not the same as the original black design at it was originally created by the old engineering company. The new engineering company (Merc) have been asked to come up with a new design along the same lines (I don't know whether this means it'll be the same but with a few changes or a complete re-design in the style of the original black)
  • the orange sleeves will be in the v1 style
  • the handmade design is complete and will apparently have a few hundred moves :shock:
