JeziHogg Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 They just got em on TW, and OMG I think I'm in love. Anyone have any experience's using them? Quote
DelcoSol Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Too rich for my blood. Looks badass though. Quote
Super User Hi Salenity Posted October 17, 2013 Super User Posted October 17, 2013 Too rich for my blood. Looks badass though. X2 I wonder what the warranty is like? Quote
DelcoSol Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 For that kind of cheese it better come with a scuba diver to swim down and hook the fish for me. Quote
Delaware Valley Tackle Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 I strongly urge anyone to look into a truly custom rod before dropping that kind of coin on a production one. You can get something that looks and performs at least as well and probably better and it would be the only one of it's kind. 4 Quote

Grantman83 Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Oh boy....aren't I poor enough? Christmas maybe....I want Quote
kschultz76 Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 I just got an Orochi XX Spinnerbait Special. Only fished it twice but loving it. The balance, weight, and finish is outstanding. Looking forward to spending more time with it but its a joy to cast and seems plenty sensitive so far. I see at least one more Orochi XX in my future. Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted October 17, 2013 Super User Posted October 17, 2013 They also have a handful of other rod lines as well all of which are above the orochi xx line. Would be interesting to see if they will be eligible for discounts during sales. Megabass has generally had a tight grasp on retailers and their pricing outside of the orochi xx line. Megabass makes some of the finest and most versatile rods out there. Will defidently be adding a few more over time to the rotation! Quote
THE_Vue's Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 WAOW its open for general public now. i thought high end megabass was suppose to be rare hard to get. whats the point of owning a megabass rod now? Wasnt that the whole point of owning a high end jdm stick so no one else can get one? At least for me Quote

Wasnt that the whole point of owning a high end jdm stick so no one else can get one? At least for me They'll still be rare…at $700 it's gonna be rare. Nice looking rod. Heard they fish even better than they look. Unfortunately it's a tad out of my price range, so I won't be getting one. Quote

Super User Jrob78 Posted October 18, 2013 Super User Posted October 18, 2013 The Arms rods are truly works of art. Quote
JeziHogg Posted October 18, 2013 Author Posted October 18, 2013 Man all this JDM stuff i'm discovering now... might have to dump everything and restart. Quote
Super User Jrob78 Posted October 18, 2013 Super User Posted October 18, 2013 Man all this JDM stuff i'm discovering now... might have to dump everything and restart. That's a slippery slope my friend, proceed with caution! 1 Quote
JeziHogg Posted October 18, 2013 Author Posted October 18, 2013 I actually just pulled the trigger on an Arms Challenge A6903X on Rakuten. How will I explain this one to the wife. 1 Quote
bmlum415 Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 You're in for it now. I'm actually going to get a megabass orochi x4 and a metanium xg sometime this month. Pretty much whenever I can find the time to go pick it up. Quote
JeziHogg Posted October 18, 2013 Author Posted October 18, 2013 Nice, I'm just going to blame you guys. Quote
Super User Hi Salenity Posted October 18, 2013 Super User Posted October 18, 2013 Sorry, my mistake. Quote
JeziHogg Posted October 18, 2013 Author Posted October 18, 2013 Sorry, my mistake. Lol no worries, I'm actually super glad you posted that. I was about to buy a X7 off of TW, then I saw you post. I would have regretted buying the X7 then finding out about those and not getting one. I'm a big sucker for shiny things. Quote
Super User Jrob78 Posted October 18, 2013 Super User Posted October 18, 2013 Nice going! I hope everything goes well with Rakuten though. They aren't known to be very reputable. Quote
JeziHogg Posted October 18, 2013 Author Posted October 18, 2013 Nice going! I hope everything goes well with Rakuten though. They aren't known to be very reputable. I've ordered an LTZ and a T3 Air and got them both no problems. Quote
Super User Jrob78 Posted October 18, 2013 Super User Posted October 18, 2013 I've ordered an LTZ and a T3 Air and got them both no problems. Ok cool, I've just read some bad reviews. I'm glad you've had good luck with them. 1 Quote
