Curious as to why not? Everyone said that with the VB's and look what happened.. Every release seems to sell out. Don't expect anything diff here.

I'd go with the Red Camos, but I've never been a big fan of the Easters, just never liked that mix of colors.

Yoooo those are straight fire. Bein from Bmore, would be a def cop to go with O's gear. Damnnnnnn I feel like nike don't release so fire Cw's that would print straight up money for them. But every cw has sold out so they could care less Forreal.

OK so here is some evidence that could support a china only release for the sparks.
They contain ignite shanghai paper in the box.
No other online asian store is selling them yet... IE air knight, RMK store.
They were only released in china by nike.com and the one shanghai store.
They are rumored to have been very limited in china as well.
Evidence they might come stateside:
No actual report stating that its not.
They have popped up on every single blog, every release thus far with that much
coverage( sku number,and actual production dates) has released.
ON a side note, when the mangos did show up in europe, where they announced as europe exclusives...have their been china exclusives in the past? and how were those handled?

That doesn't mean the fireworks won't be a China to exclusive. Only time will tell.

^I kind of get a feeling the Fireworks will be China exclusive too given what you said. Just seems kind of like something special that they made up specifically for that "Ignite Shanghai" campaign that they have over there. Nike's been releasing China specific GC versions of the 8s all year, so a QS just for that market wouldn't totally surprise me. Obviously, they love him over there. We'll see what happens.
When the Mangos dropped, they were announced as Europe exclusives, and yeah there have been at least a handful of legit China/Asia exclusive Kobes over the years that never came stateside. Most recent example was the Kobe VII Year of the Dragons that never came stateside, but there were also exclusives for the Kobe I-IIIs. Can't remember if there was an exclusive for the IVs (did the BJ2Fs drop here?), but I don't think there was an exclusive for the Vs. The only special thing China got for the VIs was their version of the Kobe VI China came with a porcelain lacelock, but those still released stateside without the lacelock. Plus his Dream Season takedown shoes all only release over there.
The PPs were pretty obviously just TB colorways to me. Same exact design with just a change in 1 shade of color screams team shoe.

Please, don't mention the BJ2F IVs. 
I watched my size sit online(eBay shop) for over a year. Finally decided to cop and they were gone. Had two pair in my size too, only my size. Now I can't find them anywhere in any size. Still mad over that.

I am a fan of the heal cup of the "port wines red camo".
I was wishy washy on the easters originally, but decided not to grab. now I am glad I didn't.

Port wines for me. That was the kobe that made me go out and cop a pair of 8s and I never saw all the love for the Easters but it is a clean cw

I know this doesn't belong here but felt the Kobe fans, like myself, would be interested.

Once again, I apologize for posting here. Just making sure the Kobe heads are aware.

Any big guys play in these? I just picked up the black/grey pp's from HOH, and ordered a blitz blue pair too. I'm 6'5 220, always avoided lows but just couldnt resist anymore... seems like every review raves about how theyre a great guard shoe
