I like the '27 ball a lot more in person. The details and colour look great.

I'm a bit more impressed with the Men's™ ball in person than on the screen. I think the ends almost rival the Japanese ball.

('99 is a fan ball not a replica. 91 had blue trim not black on the actual ball)

If anyone was going to buy next year's World Cup ball (Christmas Present etc). Gilbert in Australia is having 30% off on their site for most things. Code EOFY30. Free shipping over $50.

The RRP for this ball is stupid expensive at $90

Bought one of these last week. They aren't on the Australian Ego Website yet. Got it for $99aud ($71usd)

We are heading into winter down here so I won't get to use it for about four months.
