If you are interested in buying one of the Century free-standing body bags known as BOB (think the pink plastic male torso figures), check out the recent Booj thread also (and first) titled "Beating Bob".

Do some comparison shopping before buying one, though, as my online research found one place selling BOB for about $70 more than manufacturer's suggested retail of $299 and another selling it for about $70 less. Where's Consumer Reports when you need 'em?

Century currently has "Bob" on sale to their wholesale customers for $179 plus shipping. Regular wholesale price is $199.

Of course this only helps if you or someone you know is a wholesale customer.

How do y'all think BOB would fair after breaking kuzushi, and then being thrown fifty times per class? I tend to think BOB may be great at teaching some to drop their centers and become dead weight on defending a throw.;)
