Why would it be? It is just going to be another milled version, just like every year of timmy's is like.

usally when i would think of a custom pl version of a gun such as a impy it has also ups comes with it.....
i unno.....
The Nexus Ego has landed
...and we don't mean Robbo falling out of his motorized wheelchair. He is getting on, bless him.
Anyway, the possibility of a Nexus team Edition Ego has been the subject of more wild speculation than Clinton's love life, but right here, right now, we can give you the world's first genuine low-down on Planet's latest super-gun after our spies infiltrated Eclipse HQ this afternoon.
Rather than just taking a stock Ego and dipping it in some different colored paint, Jack and the Planet tech-monkeys went back to the Nexus team and asked them exactly what they wanted from the gun. Comments such as "sleek and sexy", "all the upgrades, non of the fuss" were among the replies, so this is what they got...
The Nexus Ego combines all the best parts of what has gone before it, with some new twists in the tail all of its own.
Upgrades include:
All the features of the STAR Frame and Trigger - Including Integrated rail for tighter set-up, Extended Snatch grip, larger trigger guard, and the ability to chose either magnetic or spring return.
The reg swivels so the hose always lines up
Super Short D.A.R.T. Bolt with Ramped inlets and Bell Faced Head.
Custom Stainless Bolt Pin for extra grip
New Nexus 3D Sculpted Eye Covers
New Nexus 3D Metal Logo Badge
Exclusive Body Sculpting is in the same vein as the now legendary Nexus DC2 Cocker (Smooth and Sexy!)
Nexus Logo on LCD Screen
The FRM does not have a gauge port for a minimum profile
STAR Trigger - For increased comfort and speed
2-Piece SHAFT Barrel in matching colors
The gun is launching in four different finishes:
Ninja Black (Black satin finish with black polished parts)
Guns 4 Hire (Olive satin finish with black satin parts - This is exclusive to Pev's Paintball in the US and only a couple will be available in Europe)
Super Blue AKA "WRC Subaru" (Blue Satin Finish with Polished Gold Parts)
Pink Lady (This is the same as the Nexus DC2 Pink Lady and these bad girls will be limited to a maximum of 100).
With a launch price of MSRP $1695 (£893.61 +VAT) and the first guns hitting the shelves at the Denver NPPL Event (Thursday 21st July 2005), head on over to www.planeteclipse.com to give your game an extra kick of Nexus power.

Woohoo? It's a milled ego, like I said. Including a reg design that was used for the karni. I wouldn't take it over a regular ego....
yep, i heard the ego is accually incredibly lighter, but like it matters they are already nothing. and the star trigger, really the only preformance diffs.
