Having recently returned from Korea, it sounds like some of the ball releases mentioned were available in Asian markets and are being brought State-side. The Storm Absolute Domination is one of those. Incidentally, I was really amazed at the level of dominance Storm has in the Korean market. The Storm brand is HUGE over there. The Strike Cell sounds like something I saw in Asia as well because every Cell I saw in Korean pro shops was polished OOB. Anxious to see what all is released!

Here in Thailand, Brunswick is the predominant ball supplier followed by Ebonite then others. Brunswick supplies a large selection of international balls every year along with the most popular stateside balls, however I haven't seen the Twisted Fury as yet. Among them, they even sell a polished Fury; this may be available in the states also, but I'm not sure.

There is also the little known Fury Pearl Tour Edition that the coverstock is suppose to be slightly different for drier lanes than the normal Pearl. The TE is polished unlike the regular Pearl and has a yellow or orange pin while the Pearl has a white pin.

I saw my ball driller at the Pro Shop this weekend, and she indicated that a polished, or pearl version of the Cell was rumored to be on the way for the new season.

The Strike Cell is coming out in the summer in the States and right now it's only an overseas ball. It's a polished pearl reacitve I belive.
