Anyone recognize this set of balls?

As mentioned in the collecting thread, those are bottom-end Aramiths that have the numbers screened on. I think the $50 suggested in the other thread is high unless you are a collector. I would not be comfortable playing with those.
The oval ones are no good for pool and you may be in danger from a vengeful bunny.
Seems like the new $500+ Aramith balls soon to be released look very similar to the solid balls in this set?
The new 100-th anniversary set has the broken-ring style of eye. Similar to the screened set, Note that the number is only on one side of each ball. And the 5 ball is orange.
Given your title, I was more than a little hesitant to open the thread. 
The solids design look like the Dynasphere Tungsten set. I find the colors and design of this set nice, even though they are far from traditional. Every time I have used them, I had people come up to me asking about them and saying how nice they looked.

For a limited edition set not meant to be used normally those are OK, I am not a fan of the 100 in place of the numbers, especially the cueball design.
I wasn’t aware this was going to be a limited edition, limited production set not meant to be used.
Aramith has touted these balls as the absolute best playing balls produced to date, so if I decide to splurge and get a set, I certainly plan to use them!
I don't know if it is limited edition, I was just saying if it was, then the design is OK, special thing for collections. But I am guessing it's not going to be a standard model run for them, design is a bit too specific.
