[climber]

Sorry, Double post see other thread

[climber]

Please post the 500g item you would call Best for 2006!

[leeca]

2006 was the year of the 3" 9 shot racks. From the NOABS that I have seen it is a toss-up between Golden Bears Mission Impossible and World Class The Big Dog. Honorable Mention goes to World Class March or Die
.

[climber]

Just one of many but it most certainly is one of the best for 2006!

Mission Impossible by Golden Bear

[Aric]

Phantom Fireworks Fluorescent Bombshell Finale Rack.

i am going with the Scuba Diver, after shooting some of the new ones last month

[shortfusejay]

I have to aggree with leeca. I thought Mission Impossible looked amazing. My personal "favorite" from 2006 though is Imperial Garden.

[Big No No]

Chosen One by Forward

[Italteen3]

Mission Impossible here. The Big Dog had the blowout issue, so no honorable mention here.

[PyroAddiction]

Mission Impossible gets my vote also.

[St1dinoh]

Chosen One by Forward

no question...best cake of the year

looks amazing in fronts, and the price makes it a clear winner IMO

Almost forgot about Scuba Diver. "Very Nice"

[pyrohead]

combat zone was cool and so was fantastic

[JoeRatman]

I would still weigh in with Pyro King Solar Flare. I love those hugh Kamuro/Willow breaks with tips.

Honorable mention Red Sky by Megaton. Only seen videos of them until the last Crackerjacks shoot. Saw 6 go off at once in three fronts about 150 feet long. WOW!

Honestly,
The ones at crackerjacks were the worst ones I have saw.
He ran out on the 4th and had them rush that smmall shipment.
You really need to see a good one.

I know This is not cake of the year but,,I Reallly liked Hales Solid Gold It just stands out on it's own in a good way

[revkev]

I will also vote for Forward's Chosen One. I haven't seen some of the others mentioned but gold mines to gold willows is a sure winner in my book. I also agree that the price makes is an appealing choice compared to the pricey NOABs.

QUICK...someone get on the horn with legends and tell them to make some chosen one-like cakes with thier blue mines and blue willows....make sure they get on the boat for 07!!! that would be insane. spread out a case or 2 of thoes into a massive front and it would be something real hard to forget.

OK you guys had your chance..

Golden Bear Pyro Boy... If I had pick one from The Big Package, Solid Gold or Pyro Boy.. I think Pyro Boy would get the nod.

Hey Leeca

Did you shoot a GB Bear Claw? This was real close to my #1 pick but the duration was short.

[shrapnel]

My pick is Pyboboy also, the breaks in that thing rivaled MANY of the NOAB's!

[Blacknas]

Scuba Diver.

Now you know Golden Bear is Very difficult to get in my area. Nonetheless I might get lucky and get a chance to see it live in December.

I did like some of the new 3" 9 shot cakes that were out this year, but I'd have to go with Megabanger Cold Fusion or Imperial Garden. Both lovely large break cakes with lots of glitter. Nice. Course that Scuba Diver I saw a month or so ago was very nice as well.

I really liked the big symmetrical breaks of Mission Impossible and March or Die. The Big Dog has big symmetrical breaks, too, and a faster pace (nine shots in 16 seconds).

For the money, what about Bear Claw or PPS-9 by Golden Bear?

[Pyro Nut]

Hummmmm,
This is a tough choice considering the much improvement of the 500 gram performance.
- 1st place, I would say would be Mission Impossible followed closely behind by,
The Chosen One. I also really enjoyed Three for the Money by Black Cat.

It is hard to gage which 500 gram is truely the best, based on individuals performance of such cakes....

now, on to grade the 200 grammers!

[LIGHTUMUP]

American trucker, it's over fast but what a show.

[SmallvilleKs]

3" cakes have to take the cake. Giant breaks, loud sound...and if you shott 4 together it's unbelievable. I can't pick a favorite but the two best brands I saw were from World Class and Dominator. The only other one that deserves mention is the Brother's Knockout Brocade. Great brocade shells to be sure. Outside of the 3" category my vote is Red Pearl's Terror Takeout. 16 shot, 2" cake, colors alternating with hard crackle. Loud like you wouldn't believe and big symmetrical breaks. I realize Red Pearl isn't that mainstream but they put out some great stuff.
