Anyone have any reviews of the Pheonix 6094? I found a review on airsoft society, but still no one gives an informed opinion or review. Does anyone here have any experience with it?

Long story short it's an ACM product. From what I've seen it's a TMC with a different name. The color looks TERRIBLE.

Sounds like all the stuff I've heard. But the color isn't bad at all.

Don't trust what something looks like on retailers websites. If your going the AOR1 replica route, then currently Flyye is the best in the business.

Ugh... That color honestly looks bad, Abbot, compared to real AOR1. Flyye really is the best way to go for replica. Price wise, Flyye isn't bad either. #flyyeordie I guess. I think Deuce has one that he can talk about the quality. Looks like Legionnaire has one, too.

Hm. Good advice, gents. Somebody sold me a Phoenix Aor1 for pretty cheap, and I swallered it... Guess I'm stuck now. Any advice? Should I just put it on eBay? p.s. here's the picture in the original listing:

It's up to you really. If you want to go with Flyye, I say go for it. But if you don't mind keeping the Phoenix one, just cover it in Flyye AOR1 pouches and similar. But then you do run the risk of having the coloration mixed up. It's really a gamble with the AOR1 replicas as far as I'm concerned.

My biggest concern is I'm creating an impression and it'll bug me that it doesn't match. Plus I can't really call it an impression if the colors are off. I mean, could any impression-er say it's worthy of an impression?

Webbing looks awful. When vests have different color webbing and nylon it looks like shit.

Looked around on Google for a bit and this kinda illustrates what I'm talking about: www.youtube.com/watch?v=z6FPSSPkmtMI'm not using this as an example of a good kit, but you can immediately tell the webbing is off and it looks like shit. Mismatched webbing can make an otherwise good kit look like shit (I'm not a fan of this guys kit, but that's just opinion).
