Cloud Connoisseur Protege or my blue straight Swiss frit probably? Perhaps TAG modular super slit donut piece too and a US headier piece too (fire within glass)

Great recs by @LesPlenty, both are great. Imo the swiss gives a bit more smoother, flavor vape with a bit more restriction (not much). Matrix for volume/big clouds (I use minimal water). Love that one for the terpcicle too.

Something like that would be perfect for his store: he reaches a broad, "new" clientele and they would really benefit from this type vapor bubbler, it's an excellent style. That said, this looks like it would benefit from moving the mouthpiece joint up higher, maybe even angled like the Ehle ones, or at least curved so that water can flow out of that joint easily. This is pretty cool to see.

Yeah that is awesome to see, seems like it might be a tiny bit wider and shorter, sort of a shame that the mouthpiece joint is still so low though, considering how it is shorter too and wider, I'm sure it will work fine though and that looks like a pretty nice mouthpiece at that height / angle ( 14 mm too yeah so different from the new FC-Mod and Goo's)

Certainly does not look as thick as GooRoo and would not withstand the same drop mine took without damage! Of course

Hopefully by the time they break it they've become aware of the GR 3-piece! It's probably a better starter piece than the globes, I'd reckon.Certainly does not look as thick as GooRoo and would not withstand the same drop mine took without damage! Of course

To be clear I don't think any of us expressed a problem with its existence for that reason or at all
Ya they do do their own thing

Yeah, mostly preemptive as FC tends to jump off cliffs with this sort of thing (good thing it’s not called Bubbler88). Calling it a ’knockoff’ is the sort of thing that gets that ball rolling, was just popping in to say even if it was a to scale copy I’m sure the folks at Goo are more than confident in their craftsmanship and market share.
Seems like Pete might be casting a nod as well when he calls it “everyone’s favourite…[Well, second favourite, probably.]”
Also, Pete needs an American English editor for the SPV store descriptions, it’s spelled ‘favorite’ my friend

Not sure who came up with the design but it has certainly caught on, it's sorta become a generic type:
herborizer Bubbler Body
The Body Bubbler from herborizer is made of best 5 mm thick glasses. This nice Bubbler comes with 18,8 mm standard grind. Try the soft Airflow.
Water filter for vaporizer Ehle Power Tower
The Power Tower humidifies the vapor and cools it additionally. This gives you a better vapor feeling. Especially recommended when you need to cough :)
These have been around for awhile, priced near the GR3 (or over). Another, cheaper version of this pipe made widely available fills a price niche those mfrs have not exploited. More importantly it gives a great vapor pipe (style) prominence in a place where people are developing their tastes and knowledge base. I agree that the term knockoff is implicitly negative in common usage (at least in the US) so it helps to show the product as being part of a continuum, unless it is indeed just an inferior copy.
At this point, I'd consider the copy of the CC Prophet something of a knockoff but the original design is so profoundly good that I would not be surprised to see others take it on as well, making it a common or generic type over time.

Look up Sheldon Black... fairly certain they are widely considered to be the original version of this COMMON design.... you know, like the one that Goo Roo Glass KNOCKEDOFF? I wonder if their panties got all bunched up over it, too? Somehow I doubt it.
Edit:
I think I paid $80 delivered on sale for my GRG 3-piece over 3 years ago...? Maybe a little less even. That for this piece is cheap, imo. @arb (RIP
) suggested it early 2020, so I bought one 4/20.... posted pics. And everyone here bought one or something else from them as a result. fact.

Glad you did cuz I sure enjoy mine! Hopefully others will come to it or some suitable contender, it's the safest bet ever for our purposes.Look up Sheldon Black... fairly certain they are widely considered to be the original version of this COMMON design.... you know, like the one that Goo Roo Glass KNOCKEDOFF?

I think perhaps your reaction had more to do with our reaction to the knockoffs of cloud connoisseur glass? Certainly for myself I took that more personally than anything else in this thread and find it more offensive as I had explained why previously...
Anyway One last thing before moving back on topic, language means different things to different people, one word can seem loaded to one person and innocuous to another
Speaking of reasonably priced US glass, Texas Hot Glass is having another sale today for 710 with the code chewy at checkout

For those that aren't aware, the 7/10 sale at Cannabis Hardware is storewide, so includes glass too. (Code: "CH710" for 20% off)
They have a couple GooRoo pieces that may interest people, among a few other things.
Happy 7/10!

Not a lot of information on their site and I don't use insta to see it, do you know which size joint it is? You know, for curiosity.
