Well just about finished unpacking boxes from my move so decided to snap a couple of quick pics of the current collection and thought you guys would enjoy.

Not 1 or 2, but 3!! banzai green splashed markers(if anyone is selling any let me know ;) )
It took me a few years to finally get these together and I am more than happy, enjoy the pics!

Well, technically there is only 1 Banzai Green gun there. The others are "Knock Offs" ;)

There is one "factory" Banzai Green Splash Ego8 out there in the wilds. I think paintballgateway might have it.

If the "Splash" is gold, it is not Banzai green.

Original Banzai Green is Green Base, Black Dabs and Silver Splash.

If the splash is gold it is just plain Green Splash.

Yes the shocker and mag are both true Banzai green ( green base with silver and black) back from when eclipse and smart parts were working together. The viking is a knock off, but it's still sexy. The ones with the gold splash were called British racing green if I recall correctly.

Thanks for all the compliments, and don't hate on the Gucci dm4, gotta have a loaner right?

Yes you are correct about the British Racing Green.

Though the only real connection with SmartParts was that they used the same anodizer as us. At the time SP used to ship all their guns and barrels that they wanted splash ano'd all the way to the UK to have the work done. At the time nobody in the states could produce the same quality of finish as Maldon Plating.

See, and everybody knocks outsourcing and offshoring as producing negative results :)

Jackwood thanks for the info :cheers: Was smart parts the US distributor for eclipse products back in the day? I have a smart parts catalog floating around somewhere that had the eclipse kits for sale along with the besales evolution cockers.

They were the sole US distributor for Belsales, and they also sold and distributed our products, but not under an exclusive agreement. It was a reciprocal arrangement as we stocked and distributed theirs throughout Europe.
