Saw these up on their site yesterday, they do look good.

So they have an aluminium and O matter frame is that correct?

Might have to blind order a set probably be ages before they're available here in Aus

When you pull off the black socks off the madman,there a shinny metal under the sock thats long and thin and pretty stong , like a kitchen fork teeth.

I'm curious how the sapphire iridium will turnout on the Badman. Of course the most expensive of the two styles has the most appealing colorways for the moment. If they release the Jawbreaker in Feb as well it's going to be an expensive couple of months ahead lol.

I imagine it will be at least a six month lead time before we see Badman replacement lenses but that's when my interest will really be piqued. I'll try the frames for size of course, but mainly I want these for Juliet cuts - sapphire and daily Prizm.

Yeah... aside from trans %, how about base curvature?

 

[Carrera1963]

Haven't we already had base 8.75 confirmed? Hope so, I've been banging my deluded drum for nothing otherwise!! Might have been in the ShadeStation ads when they were up temporarily.

Hmmm, doesn't specify. By eye, it looks like more curvature than a 6 though.

Doubt it.. even after 6 months you can even buy the lens replacement. But big taco lens work for a custom cut. I put my pb2 lens next to badman and there almost exact size. Badman are little bigger lens on the edges.

**Madman lens are little smaller then mars.

Big Taco isn't available in sapphire or Prizm though. How was the lens curve compared to the PB2?

Whats the retail price in US gonna be? Do we have a lead?

 

[kronin323]

I heard $400, a little more ($410 or $420) for the prizm version.
