Immediate impressions: the MP-68s are awesome, but I really don't like the look of the 58s. The logo-printed insert makes that 5 iron look almost like a hybrid. Clunky. I wonder what it looks like at address on the long irons.

Are we looking at about September for these?

Wedge looks interesting, but could do without the huge Cleveland Zip Groove-style badge. Ninja star meets font from a Wild West wanted poster--meh.

I agree with you on this. I think they look a little too chunky from that view, but they probably look better at address. I'm curious to see how well they play.

The golf balls look great! I wonder if they will ever distribute them to the U.S?

I don't think they're chunky at all. And remember, these are very bad quality photos, the real things will definitely be much better looking. I especially like the new MP logo they're stamping on these new lines.

I wonder why the heck does Mizuno keep some of it's products exclusively for Japan? These balls, and there are Mizuno golf shoes as well, and they look amazing!!

There are also photos of the new MX-300, but the photos are water marked so I can't put them here.

i wanted to switch over to mizzie irons when these come out, but these pics are really disappointing.

blaming the picture for them not looking good is kinda BS. high res or low res they still look like blades that came out back in the mid 80s.

think ill pull my Ping Eye 2's from 1983 put a mizzie sticker on it and call it a day.

The 58's have a look similar to the MP-33's, seems like they are going back to the look and maybe performance of some of their best blades of the past with a touch of new technology.

That pic of the 68's combined with the fact that Mizuno's are always quality is almost enough to make me buy them when they come out, despite the fact that I have no need for new irons whatsoever.

I think the 68s just look like a new and slightly different MP-33. The 58s look a little flashy for Mizuno. I never would have thought they'd start taking TM's approach to GI irons. It just doesn't look like a Mizzy...

The MP wedges finally get a revamp. New grooves for Mizzy for the first time in a while. They look very similar to the MP wedges right now, but with a slightly different grind. Good looking club IMO.

I actually meant the "68's" look similar to the MP33 not the 58's. The 58's don't grab me, I like the looks of the 57's better.
