Li Ning N90IV/900 and N9II FHF Ed.

Sneak peeks of the Li-Ning N90iv as well a Fu Haifeng Retirement Special Edition Racquet No details as of yet on what the FHF racquet is. Judging from the decal styling and the "Turb" writing it is most probably a n9ii since its unlikely they'll launch a new racquet as a signature edition. So many different colours from Li-Ning lately, but I'm all for it! This will be a new addition to the existing variants of the n9ii: Original (pink/blue/black), 2017 repaint (green/purple), Tontowi Ahmad Signature (bronze/black and 2017 repaint). Totally digging this new colourway! Something about black and gold is just irresistible

Sounds like there's no chance buying one first hand unless you have some relations
I can already see 2nd hand prices are going to skyrocket to extreme highs :'(

 

Yup, the store owner (credits for the pics in the original post) was lucky enough to grab a hold of one as an early release. However, he said it is extremely sought after in China and that most are already 'reserved' (along with others that are straight up not going to be for sale) and there's no way to get a hold of them without good networks. He cannot confirm if he'll even be able to get more. He's keeping his current set as part of the not-for-sale collectables that's currently on display at his store. I'd assume this will be the case for many other retailers as well.

 

Yet to be announced. More information will come closer to the date.

 

Some more sneakpeeks!

It's so shiny it'll definitely be a distractor on courts I'm gonna do all I can to get my hands on one of these... though I may not be able to actually bring myself to play with it...

 

that'll just be 1000 bucks no biggie
