The Orbit ball is not sourced in the KOP. Can anyone find it? 3 people googling has yielded no results.

It would be nice if FIRST listed a manufacturer.

Found 6 at a local walmart.

I just uploaded a photo (awaiting approval) of the packaging to make the shelf-hunting go easier.

We got seven of them in Wal-Mart's toy section for about $10 each. The full name is "Wild Time Orbit Ball" made by Blip Toys, although their web site seems to make no mention of them.

The KOP Balls are from Wal-Mart.

For those of us without access to Walmart, please do share if you find an online source. I just spent an hour looking to no avail.

I guess I'm just getting started on much harder it is for UK teams. As of Wednesday, our KoP hadn't shipped yet. :(

There available at wall-mart, we have 7 as of now.

6-5838282040-4 is the bar code, just to confirm.

I just picked up 2 of the 3 available on the shelf at our local Walmart. Only one was still in its box base packaging, and the 2nd was used & dirty (so the manager approved selling it at a 10% discount - $8). The 3rd ball was badly damaged; the cloth covered frame was broken internally in 2 sections. It will be interesting to see how well these hold up in play, particularly if they are run over, pinched or squashed.

Thanks.
I managed to track down 6 between 13 different stores. I can tell you that Toys R' Us Carries/Carried them, Found one at a K'Mart, None at 2 different Targets, and 5 at Walmart. So Walmart would probably be your best bet.
