It has been brought to my attention that there are two different types of Prismacolor Markers on the market.
Type 1 (shown image left) has a metal housed arcylic fine tip while Type 2 (shown image right) has a felt based fine tip.
With the poll above, hopefully we can figure out where they are coming from.
Right now Prismacolor's website is "Under Construction" and haven't been able to find an answer, but while I was at Micheal's today I checked their marker sets and their Primary and Secondary set had a sticker on it announcing the all new nib on the fine tip. What I am suspecting is that there are two different stocks of marker out there and the metal tips are being phased out.
There are pros and cons to each but we'll cover those in the respective classes.
