Personally excited about the draftday colorway as its very reminiscent of the CWs used on older models.

I hate to say it, but the fuggly boy scouts branding on the heel ruined a couple of clean CWs like the Eulogy, Avars, Easter.
The Easters with the skull are cold. Not sure if we are looking at the same shoes or not
 
Having a hard time choosing which I like more. always thought Beethoven's would be my for sure fav until I saw this mc up close. Tough call.

Beets are in a class of their own, but you're right, those 4KBs might be the best 11 to release so far besides the hyped 11 FTBs.  I've been collecting Kobes for a decade, and I think the recent releases of the BLs, 4KBs, Avars and the FTB 11s are right up there with the best of them.  Great year to be into Kobes, and it's not over yet.
 
Design wise yes. But I had to sell mine DS due to bleeding so I wouldn't put them up there cuz they were poorly made
I know, it's odd.  I have two pairs, one DS, and one I've worn at least 25-30 times.  I think it might vary from shoe to shoe.  The pair I've worn have never gotten the bleeding issue (and I've gotten caught in the rain in them), but I've seen some pairs with that weird purple-ish bleed thing going on.  I keep wanting to let the DS pair go and use the proceeds for new pairs, but I'm scared that when I do, the worn pair will start to get that issue.
 
If anybody is looking for the most comfortable socks out there, you must try this brand called Bombas, for sports or casual wear. They're very comfortable!

Sorry for going on a tangent, just trying to share and educate.

I wonder what else are planned for the 11's, the muse pack, the sunsent ids, mamba day ids. Those colorways are going to cover the next 2 months. 
 
Man preludes are nice, FTB is semi-nice, nothin is gonna beat the original release cw's... Just sayin, IMO, food for thought... Don't scramble for the latest get the ones that originally happened
 
All of these photos of the FTB's making me mad salty lol. I still can't comprehend why Nike couldn't go the Mamba Moment 9's route. But thats Nike for you.

I'm glad they didn't. I don't like ID's and they're not made as well. This is coming from someone who missed out on the FTB XI's too.
 
The MP isnt a prelude. Its the IX... the others were a lead into the new model which is why they were called a " prelude"
yeah the MP's aren't a prelude, but the pack leads into the MP. The whole pack is setup to the MP, thats why I said "technically". Sorry I meant theoretically.
