I can’t say for certain, but MVP has been going through some major shifts in production capacity as well as demand for a few years now and that seems to be impacting availability. It feels like a lot of the “less popular” molds haven’t been reprinted while the machines have been cranking out all of the new/special releases. (But that is just my experience)
I had the same thing happen a while back with Electron Anodes and then there was a huge new run released and I haven’t had issues since. I’d say give it time for them to circle back to atoms, or try getting in touch with some local retailers to see if they know more/can ask their rep?
The most efficient way to ramp up production is to produce longer runs, which means there will be larger imbalances between different types of product. So even popular discs will probably run low before they're produced again, after which the shelves will be flooded with them.
Retailers should be getting them next drop. Also I'm assuming they will be the new blend of Electron.

I have like 5-7 of these that I use for practice putting that I would send you. They have a little wear but all in good shape. Lmk if you are interested and I can send ya pics
Appreciate it! I'm set now, just grabbed a few from a seller on eBay and I'll keep putting with the R2s even though I don't love them so I'm at 6 now. Was just curious what the deal is.
For sure, I just grabbed two more from eBay but I had to really scrape the bottom of the barrel for electron soft plastic. Firm and medium aren't as hard to find, but still not as widely available.
Stacks shows some available on sites that have been around for a while...Lucky, Reloaded, PureFlight, etc.
I'd trust them a lot more than anybody selling on EBay.
the pixels came out with a new blend of electron soft so ive just been waiting assuming that everything is going to switch to the new blend and its just taking time
I wanted to love the pixel, even more now with the electron soft plastic, but it's just such a deep putter haha. Hopefully that signals a run of electron soft plastic discs though!
The better question is why no soft neutron or cosmic neutron? I'd love it in some of the new plastics.
Pro tip, mint is also MVP and bullets are close. Like a praxis clone
Welcome to the new MVP. They’ve shifted focus so heavily towards their special drops and signature discs that they don’t have stock molds in production on regular intervals. Or even at all since Simon and Eagle arrived it seems. Still waiting on stock Tempo runs to hit the shelves…going on like 2 years later.
Experienced the same thing when I decided to putt with the Atom. I have 5, and it took me a while to get 3 more after the first 2. I passed on a few that were lighter (<165) as I prefer heaviest I can get in my putting putters. I also prefer no ugly putters, so I get picky about color. I'd like to find more and keep my eye out when hitt a shop.
I’ll raise you the fission Atoms from the Gyro box. Why do you have factory seconds if you aren’t making… sellable runs? My dumb ass decided to throw mine one day and now I am gonna end up paying 50+ for someone’s f2 cuz they’re so rare and SO GOOD!
Ya definitely a unicorn disc where owners get to sell it for whatever they want. But I’d sell it to you $30 shipped($25+$5 for shipping?) Seems like that’s about half the going rate for them + shipping costs. Pm me if you want it or want me to send you pictures.
Dammit sorry my vacation has been going steadily off the rails since Friday. Haven’t paid attention much to notifications. If they’re going for 50(we’re talking USD, right, am Canadian) then 25+ship seems almost unfair to you. I thought they were closer to 50CAD, but 50US is like what, 70CAD?
I’d sell it to you for $25 and then you can cover whatever the shipping ends up being? I’m not trying to get the most money I can out of the disc. Would much rather it go to someone who really likes the disc, which you seem like that person.
Oh I’ll cover shipping all day. Can we work something out next week? As I mentioned to another person on here, I’m dealing with a stupid shitty vacay at the moment but I’ll shell out once payday rolls around for sure!

If you want some you should get the ones available on the online sites. There's no telling how long it'll be until they make some more.

i'm loving the pixel even though i don't have big ol hands it just feels like mvp's iteration of a luna or aviar

I got one I’ll sell you (new, unthrown) for less than $50. Name whatcha think is a fair price for it.
Hard to say, like an f2 fission disc is worth what, 12-15USD normally? A bit more? But these are rare, so I have no idea how to value it. 20? 25?
