Anyone ever used these? Just trying to get an idea of the quality.

Looks like ultimates to me, but then I don't know what I'm typing about...

I think they're Happ Compettition joysticks.
They're pretty good, but those look a little uh, "old". :)

You have both.

The shrinkage and "flaws" on the top of the base of the Ultimate are also a dead give-away...

Shrinkage? what's that? Did the ultimates go into very cold water or something?  (no really?)

What happens with plastic-molded parts when they cool.  The plastic kinda "warps" if you will.
