over VBMX they were saying they found the original moulds and maker  :daumenhoch:

bobafett:

its supposed to be a softer modern material
so not as hard as the orig grips - which is nice

Now you  come to mention it they do feel a little softer than the original grips - but not too soft !  :laugh:

matt:
my 3 sets landed today, and the material is much softer than the originals they feel like ame tri
the quality is good but not brilliant there are a couple of things, they have 2 pin holes on the end of each grip and the overall finish is not as clean as the originals but for the price they are great. i would stick with the genuine grips on a prized build though

bobafett:
Yeah I understand what matskybeat is sayin about a prized build and using originals - i needed yellows and forked out a packet for them myself but not sure where your comin from on the "2 pin holes on the end of each grip" thing - i've got original team goose yellows in original mongoose packaging and original red survivors and they both have the 2 nipple dots on the end of 'em - maybe yours have worn off ?
Anyways each to there own - if your building an early goose these will definitely look better and feel truer than some AME's etc.

Peace   :angel:

bobafett:
Oh yeah - i forgot - nice build jim - sweet supergoose 3 - didn't mean to diss your AME's bud just a fan of the goose grips myself  :LolLolLolLol:
