The New Product Release Thread

Darkhorse192 said:
HOLY SH*T these flavors are unbelievable. To say they nailed them would be a gross understatement.

Cookie Stuffed Cookie tastes exactly like chocolate chip cookie dough. Im talking it tastes like I was eating Ben and Jerry's chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream. Ive never tasted another flavor of protein that I could compare it to. There is a slight hint of Oreo at the end too. For those wondering Its actually kind of hard to explain id say its like a 95% choc chip cookie dough flavor, but if you look for it at the end of the sip you pick up hints of Oreo. Seems like it would be overkill but its not, somehow they compliment each other just right. For all intents and purposes this is a choc chip cookie dough flavor though, and nothing like anything ever tasted from a protein powder. Note even close.

The Peanut Butter Bits flavor taste exactly like Reeses Pieces. I mean this sh*t is scary close to these flavors. I dont know how they did it but they are incomparable to anything else. Ive had plenty of PB flavors, and I would consider myself a PB lover. I LOVE the new Purus Myofeed Vanilla PB2 but this is soo very different. The Myofeed has a strong Peanut Butter / PB2 taste and is amazing in its own right, however, this one actually taste like you are just eating Reese's Peieces Candy from the fuc*king bag. I cannot say it any other way.

I have no affiliation with this company, even though my raving might make it seem like that. I just want everyone to know who loves their protein shakes as much as I do that these flavors are stupid good.

Both of these flavors immediately would move into my top 5 all time which would now look like this for reference (not in any order)

PES Snickerdoodle
Animal Frank's Birthday Cake
Purus Vanilla PB2
MAN Cookie Stuffed Cookie
MAN Peanut Butter Bits

Ill summarize it like this

MAN Cookie Stuffed Cookie and Peanut Butter Bits

Every other flavor of protein Ive ever had (except the few others in my top)

oh man... this could be a problem haha. Awesome, graphic review!

have you had cellucor cccd or any other brand (can't actually think of any others atm)? Comparison? I though cor was decent, but not a super powerful flavor. like on a scale of 1-10, 10 being i'm eating a cookie and 1 being this is some flavor of protein powder, id put cor at like a 7. above average but not overwhelming

Shocked the MAN cookie stuffed cookie doesn't taste too much like vanilla. Mentioned this to Lobliner about releasing CCCD flavor and he told me that they tried and it just tasted like vanilla. If MAN actually nailed that flavor I'll have to try.

dude it tastes nothing like vanilla, and its a legit chocolate chip cookie dough flavor. I have nothing to gain by making that claim either. I have had a lot of proteins that I have been very blah on, even ones that many other consider to be amazing, but for me personally this legit taste like chocolate chip cookie dough. I also waited until I had about 4 shakes with this stuff before my review rolled in just to make sure Ive given a flavor its due justice. I cannot imagine anyone trying this flavor and saying that it tastes like a vanilla or even like a plain chocolate for that matter.

Dude, to be fair I had never tried the cellucor flavor. I know that everyone loved their flavors but I never got on board with them, I thought cor fetti was ok, nothing to write home about. I say that becuase I cannot offer a fair comparison to their flavor, and Ive never had a protein powder that was a chocolate chip cookie or cookie dough flavor in the past so its tough to have a benchmark to go off of. I can tell you this when I tried it I was blown away at how much like a chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream it tasted. In all fairness I make all my shakes in a blender with almond milk and ice so it has a true shake consistency to which adds to the experience, but id say it would be like a 9 on your scale just because I dont believe any shake could exactly replicate that without adding additional things but this is as close as it gets. I dont know if that was helpful. I know the prices were high for these, but I am happy with my purchase because they have been very enjoyable and good macros too.
 
Looks like Thursday is the release of the new PES Flavor:

PES fans can now start counting down from two, as Frosted Chocolate Cupcake Select is due to be released in just two days time on Thursday. Like all of the brand’s new supplements, the Milk Chocolate replacement is going to be introduced through the PES insider group.

people are saying the price is high on the MAN protein, I haven't seen anything though...what is the current pricing?
 
IMO protein doesn't need to be any more than a buck a scoop unless it's got magic beans mixed in. Protein is protein.

Easy to say, but not always true when it comes to meeting label claims. This is why a lot of lawsuits and companies have been found guilty of spiking protein.
The cost to make and manufacture protein per serving has skyrocketed in the last few years.
There are some reason companies get away with BOGO and dirt cheap deals on protein even when they are not making money doing so.

Good Article:

Several class action lawsuits have been filed against various brands, and several more are on the way. This section will be updated with all known suits:

July 1, 2014: Body Fortress Lawsuit
November 4, 2014: A GNC and 4 Dimension Nutrition joint class action
November 11, 2014: The CVS Lawsuit was filed regarding CVS Whey Protein Powder.
Giant Sports (Delicious Protein)
November 13, 2014: Inner Armour Class Action Lawsuit (Mass Peak and Nitro Peak)
November 19, 2014: New Whey Lawsuit (Multi-Pro)
November 19, 2014: Pro Supps PS Whey Lawsuit served.
November 19, 2014: Fit Foods (Mutant Whey)
ALLMAX Lawsuit (Hexapro Protein Powder)
January 23, 2015: CytoSport Muscle Milk Family Lawsuit (note that this is not for spiking! It’s allegedly just under-dosed protein and not having L-Glutamine!)
January 28, 2015: MusclePharm Arnold Schwarzenegger Iron Mass
 
Even if we're talking 3rd party tested, protein should still be around $30 for 28-30 servings.

Oh I know, I love, LOVE MTS Whey, No Bake cookie is amazing. It's about $65 after shipping and 65+ servings usually. So about $1/scoop

Very ready for new Select in my life.

And some brownies/cupcakes/frostings.

As for the complete Proteinos menu, thanks to last week’s announcement we did already know of one that would be on the supplement’s list with Honey & Nut. We can now confirm that there are two others on its menu, giving it the same amount of options as the original FIBO version. Joining Honey & Nut is another two taste effort with Cinnamon & Vanilla, with the third flavor actually being from the original Proteinos line-up in Chocolate.

Agreed.

Pricing can be such a nasty marketing game sometimes.
There are people who genuinely feel better spending extra money, blindly assuming it will be "better"
In every market.

My parents actually started a small hobby business on the side, (Some crafted cement work) and makes the most sales when things are priced higher (3x what they set out to charge)

perceived value is a helluva drug
 
Even with their 20% code Man protein is still $36 for 23 servings.

I would rank them: rocky road, blueberry and then OCC in that order, but none were good enough to warrant a purchase of a box IMO.

The Quest cereal bars were great, def buy those!

Bbm, occur tie for me with rocky road far far being...loved every cereal bar, waffle and chocolate were my fav.

All 3 sound worth trying

I've tried 2 so far:

Chocolate Hazelnut - More chocolate than Hazelnut, but it hits you at the end and makes you go "whoa". It's almost hard to say it, but as of now its my favorite chocolate protein flavor I have tried

Bacon Maple Pancake - Oh. my. gawd. This is heaven. Totally unique style flavor. Vanilla/cream/pancake up front, maple in the middle, and at the end a VERY VERY slight smoked bacon, very understated which is a good thing IMO
 
Hazelnut always has that sneaky kick in afterwards, big fan here so that one I will definitely grab

I'm so on the fence with this. I love dark chocolate and hate milk chocolate. I'm afraid if I go with one, and I enjoy it, I'll be kicking myself in the butt.

Curious to see the price on these. It would still probably be a hell of a lot more economical to buy Cheerios (one of the dozen of flavors), make a protein shake and just add the liquid to the cereal.

Banana myofusion was the first protein I ever fell in love with haha, got 20lbs for 40 bucks at the Arnold classic back in the day too, definitely my best supplement haul ever

I got some pb cookie on the way next month. Also have banana MyoFusion coming to me. But these flavors VT just posted might give me reason to pause and switch up my decision

More info on Ghost Whey coming soon

25g of protein from whey isolate, concentrate, and hydrolysate, a gram of fat, 5g of carbohydrates, and 130 calories. With all that said there are really only two things left to come for Ghost Whey, the launch of the supplement itself and its label. As far as we know we aren’t going to be getting the former at the Stack3d Pro, which leaves us thinking we’re going to be seeing its official label.

Nope, but every BB'er and company has a pre or even a supplement line.
Surprised they have ran out of a mix of ingredients yet. ;)

This world is pretty amazing now a days. Wish I could go back to being a kid sometimes.
I was coming up when AOL was the rage for Internet and the 56k modems. Now we got computers for phones, all these different flavor Oreos and Chips Ahoy, all this technology in cars.... Cool getting to see it all.

Word

Some reps had been hinting at the possibility of Frank's BDay Cake making a return. They are saying its a seasonal thing only around the time of year of his actual birthday. If they bring it back Ill be ordering by the case. The thing I dont understand, and Im not claiming to because Im not in the supp biz at all, but it was such a well loved flavor, and the demand for its return seems high, why dont they just make it a permanent flavor?

In my personal opinion, the Peanut Butter Bits flavor is much better, they are not even on the same playing field, and I mean that in the most respectful way to possible to PES, a brand I have very much love and respect for in their products. I will always have a tub of snickerdoodle on hand without question.
