I would be surprised if these came to production. that being said there have been rumors of Cobra using the MIM material in an iron. This could be that material or process. MIM standing for metal injected molding. This is complete speculation on my part, but hey what else do you do??

knightsofnii Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I bet they do make it to production in some form. The tungsten plugs have been a part of Rickie's "Rickie MB/Blades" set since the Fly-Z version. I have AMP Cell Pros (which had a full MB across the set Rickie version available only direct from Cobra), the Fly-Z+ irons were the same thing with tungsten plugs added. Rickie had Titleist blades before signing with Cobra. I believe they at first were trying to emulate the 6XX MB with a little flair; later, improving on the design with each iteration. If Rickie ever left for TM or another company he would lose a bit of creative control, I believe. I think he is in a good position with Cobra for the time being.
