Dont want to sound negative but if those things are polarized then they are going to come in at about $470. The majority of people would have to club together to buy one on a time share basis.

Just my opinion though.

yeah it looks like his signature Polished Frame - Slate Iridium Lens combination..

Polarized or not, I think this is going to be insanely expensive =( but I still would want one ..

I hate to be digging up old threads but does anyone have any new info on the Ichiro 51 signature Romeo II?

I've only heard that it is supposed to be the next Ichiro. But I wouldn't expect to see it until Q1 2006 ... as we near spring training.

first quarter of 2006, thats not too too far away, but I just bought a Carbon/black Romeo 2.0 today for $178 so I guess I will have two Romeo 2's as I do with most x-metals. I just hate that every Ichiro, excluding the carbon ichiro (and we all know the story behind that), has to be Polished.

Not me, Polished is my favorite frame. So, it's all good to me.

another picture of these surfaced on one of the facebook pages...these still elude me and most likely almost everyone here.

I've only seen that on eBay once. I think it had a BIN of $1,200, but I'm just going off of memory. A member was able to grab it.
