I think some of that 10, and 11-time KC plastic has just increased in value. Now for the 12-time KC plastic.

from what i understand, the plan was to go to a generic stamp that just says 'World Champion' rather than keep re-doing hotstamps each time KC or JK (and maybe now DR) wins Worlds...
it would be cool though to see a limited edition 12x stamp run for all the collectors and fanatics :D

Hopefully he was throwing Champ Tee Rex's
That'd be a nice addition

That's what I thought. I remember it used to be on his team description on innova's website, but it's no longer there.
edit: but it's on his personal page:
Driver: CE Teebird, KC Teebird, Wraith, Firebird
Midrange: KC Roc
Putter: KC Aviar
Roller: CE Teebird TL

Imagine the wraith in the kc pro plastic. mmmm. I know they've had problems running the rocs lately in it, but it's cool to dream...

i wonder if they'll mack a new mix for the 12x.
maybe dave d and innova had a feeling kc would win this yr so they decided to wait and see if they were right and are gonna run'em now.

A blend of plastic close to the 10-time KC Teebirds with slight blend of the new DX plastic for a touch of grippiness.

I had the pleasure of playing with Kenny the first round this week.
He also throws a pro starfire, which he was throwing for pop up hyzers.
I really feel he will choose the wraith. Not only is it a disc he throws (he was throwing it for distance and long hyzers), it would also be the best decision financially.

how would it be the best decision financially? because of all they sell he would get a handsome check for the royalties? the wraith is just the flavor of the year like the valk, beast, orc and starfire, they have their followers still but bigger and better things have come along, I think he should hold out for another disc.

The wraith is here to stay. Everyone loves these things.

Actually, I hope they never do that, since there are differences (sometimes significant) between runs of what is supposed to be the same disc. A KC 12x Roc may come out very different than a KC 11x Roc. By just using a generic 'World Champion' stamp, we may not be able to easily identify a certain run of discs.

it'll be interesting to see what Climo does in the next few years, he's approaching 40, right? i'd like to see him stick around and not bump to masters. anyway, good to see him win again, a 12x blend would be sweet. i got a chance to meet him right after he won the 2005 des moines NT, asked him to sign my 11x firebird, favorite disc of all time.

I'm sure anything Dave creates in 12x will be sweet.
Aviars , Rocs , TeeBirds or Wraiths !!!!! :D

I listened to an interview KC was giving right after winning and the questions of him bumping to Masters came up. He said he'd play Open as long as he was competative.
I also have one of the first 12x Rocs. At least, he wrote "12x" by his name after he signed the Augusta Pro Worlds Disc I asked him to sign. He's a class act and I will defiently by a 12x Roc when they come out for real.

definitely a class act...it's pretty cool because he'll be considered the babe ruth of disc golf years down the road. at a time when the sport is growing as fast as it is, to be able to compete against somebody of that caliber, or just meet them between tourney rounds, is just awesome.

KC is definatley as class act. He signed my cast that I had on my broken arm at this years AM Worlds. It only said 11x though.
