Default Re: Hydra tweak?

Hi Dave,
Has the Hydra mold been tweaked recently? I picked up a replacement yesterday. Could be my imagination, but the bottom of the rim feels more rounded than I remember.

I found out that a newer version has been shipped. It has been tweaked, but not in the way that you described, or that I replied to. The nose is a little thicker at the top.
Thanks for the info, Dave. Now I'm wondering whether I got a molding variant of the original mold, a tweaked version, or a molding variant of the tweaked version.

The nose is thicker: very similar in height and shape to the Bulldog's nose, but the concavity of the lower rim is less pronounced than on the Hydra it's replacing: almost like that of a Panther. Guess I'll have to pick up a tweaked version to compare it to to be sure. (Like I really need another excuse to feed my plastic addiction! )
