Going by the two-year product cycle, aren't they due for a new release this year? Although I thought I read somewhere recently that Mizuno were not looking to change the MP-4 line anytime soon because it was already so close to perfection.
The pictures in the OP look like they are hollow head, like the MP-H5. In fact, that's what I thought I was looking at at first. But the top also seems a bit scooped out, like they have taken weight from there and added it down below. I don't think the MP-H5 has that scoop.

Seems a big departure from the pure blade that is the MP-4.
Any road up, I think I'll pass.

Fake?

+1. "GF Forged" seems like a giveaway...
[/quote]The current line up which include the mp-t5 wedge jpx 850 forged and mp-15's all say GF Forged on the hosel.

In regards to this being a departure from the pure blade Mizuno usually makes, I do remember a conversation I had with my Mizuno rep a few weeks. He said that they are "doing something very different from what they've ever done before."

So my bet is that they are in fact real.

Agreed, that's pretty impressive.

And from the looks of that picture, there doesn't appear to be a scoop above the muscle.

I was about to buy a second-hand 3-PW MP-4 set, but I might wait now.

Nah....

Do these irons for Luke look like the prototypes to anyone else?

EDIT: pic from Twitter and on my iPhone I can zoom into the Twitter pics and they definitely don't look like MP15's. I can't zoom on the pics from my iPad (where I'm posting this) for some reason.

I guess we will find out very soon. The Twitter caption was something to the effect of "getting new handles before The Open."

EDIT: I know from WITB pics that Luke has an H5 long iron in the bag. I wonder if I am confusing one or more H5's in the pic as MP5's?
