Didn't Predator develop a new set of balls (pool balls)? Did they ever get marketed?
The new Predator balls are being used at the Vegas Open this week. Also being used is Predator's new cloth. BTW, the description of the balls is almost exactly the same as that for Cyclop. I'm sure you're spot-on on their source. They look good on the stream. Real good old-school colors with the Pred logo on one side.Yes, but they were never marketed. They were made by Csomos out of South Korea and were/are called Arcos. I've got a set of the prototypes:
Cyclop is rumored to have taken over the Predator project and producing a ball set soon. We shall see.

No actual photo of this new set yet?
There is now!
Aramith, not Predator.
Watch the free stream and see for yourself.To my understanding, the Cyclop Predator set will/does feature traditional colors and a three dart design (12 o'clock, 4 o'clock and 8 o'clock) opposed to the 4 dart design on the Cosmos-made Arcos. Also the Cyclop cue ball features a measle design using black triangles instead of dots.
The Predator balls are not made by Aramith. Most likely Cyclop is source. As for the Aramith's they will debut at MosconiCup.Aramith, not Predator.
I don’t. I haven’t met a product yet that supersedes items built in the the previous 20 Years. Not one. Why reinvent the wheel? Only one reason. The money. Pool tables, cues, cloth, cues, balls. I can be just fine and comfy with 15 years ago more.

# on one side, Pred logo on the other. You aren't trippin'.Maybe I shouldn't have had that gin after being in the sun all day, but wtf is up with this ball?
It's a modified set of Centennials with their own cue ball design.
