    After Marvel & Hasbro, i'm looking forward for Disney "Frozen", or Warner Bro's "Batman". Well, Dreamworks' "Shrek" would be cool too. Yonex should follow this strategy by adapting anime theme onto their rackets....say Dragon Ball, One Piece, Bleach, Naruto, etc.... while Li Ning.. uhm... print the picture of general Mao Tse into their rackets? I highly confident 20 years later, android 15.0.3 or iOS 13.2.1 would be installed into the handle of hi-end rackets, then the head of the racket would be able to project some 3D images at 4K resolution, with the string enables touch-mode. The shaft would then functioning as speaker DTS, wifi, & bluetooth 8.0. All together, the weight would range from 48-68g (6U - 8U). Dreamy?

    I'm not particularly interested in the racquets, but I do like the cloth racquet bag! They should sell them individually!

    These rackets will not be able in Europe.

    Unfortunately, the licensing agreement dictates that a fee has to be paid for every country the racket is sold in. As Victor Europe supplies to around 52 countries it simply isn't worth the investment against the number of rackets sold.

    Comment on the feel of the racket after you used it? :) does it feel the same with a TK9000 racket?

    I would suspect that just because the cone specs are identical and within the same racquet group that they would not necessarily perform the same.

    For example, the Meteor JJS, Meteor MX70, and Meteor London are all:
    HH ○●○○○ HL
    S ○●○○○ F
    but after using all three, I can say that they don't play the same. The London best suited me so I only kept that one and sold the other two.

    I can give you some feedback (with pics) on the feeling of the 3U TK9000 vs 3U TF4 since I have both racquets but waiting for the TF4 to be strung. Problem is the TK9000 I've strung with BG80 to 24lbs and the TF4 with VS850 to 24lbs so results might be slightly inconsistent but it's better than nothing.

    I took the gamble that they both are similar so here's hoping the TF4 performs every bit as excellent as the TK9000 otherwise... :crying:

    well then ill be waiting for your review mr. OctoLotus... thanks...

    i am hoping that both rackets will perform very much the same cause i am planning to buy one but can't decide because... I am really really hoping that TK9000=TF4 :)

    i saw some ads but when it comes to the stiff indicator (which i don't fully understand what it means:) ) ... the TK6000 indicator looks the same as the TF4 than the TK9000... this really bothers me =)

    so i am really hoping for your feedback =) thanks a lot...

    TK9000 does not equal TF4. They're pretty close but not exactly the same. Psychologically, you will play better with the one you like the appearance of which in my case is the TF4 :D

    The bumblebee Jetspeed racket looks really nice, has anyone compared it to other jetspeeds? I would love to try one. I've owned and used the thruster Optimus but I prefer jetspeeds so would love the bumblebee version.

    I should be trying out a JS Bumblebee 3u tonight so I will see how it compares to JS10 3u and JS 8PS 3u.
    Does anyone know where I can get one of the transformers or BR9607 bags?
