First of off, let me preface this by telling you to ignore the shimano vs daiwa fanboy arguments that tend to break out over at TT.

As we all know, the 50MG was recently discontinued and Bantam has confirmed that they have no interest in upgrading/replacing it in the US market. Over on the otherside of the Pacific, something is already in the works. Photos has been spreading aroun and it's to be called Aldebaran MG. Rumor has it that it weights in at measly 155g, 5.46ish oz.
We'll see how this will unfold. I'm curious on what the price point will be. I think plat had a sale on their metaniums awhile back...which is essentially the equivalent of our Core here. I wonder if it'll outright replace it or be an addition to their line up.
