Is it true?

[countit]

I saw this sales thread here on RWI. The seller clearly has a PO in which the logo on the face does not have the "happy feet" that we've commonly identified in the "ultimate version."

So, is it true? Is there a NEW Ultimate PO that has no happy feet? It certainly seems like it is, but I have a couple questions:

• Is it made in the Noobfactory?
• Which trusted dealers are offering this version?
• Are there any other flaws that anyone can see?

I do not know about "new" UPO, but the 45.5 that I recently received from RM does not have the happy feet. It is exactly as the one you show above without the pumpkin numbers. Runs great, though I am having an issue with the clasp. It will not stay latched. Lay is sending me a replacement. I have no idea which factory it came from. I do know that I ordered it October 2nd and was informed he could not find one with a bracelet and I had to wait for the next factory run October 18. It took a couple more weeks to get it to me. In this case he skipped the normal QC pics. I just received an email that it had been shipped. I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived.
