Great - thanks.

Belated feedback.
Aesthetics / Balance - I love the look of it, very steam punk with the two different metals. Comfortable to hold and use. The only improvement would be to either slim down the head or provide a counter weight in the base of the handle to make it a little less head-heavy, but this is very minor.
Use - I managed some great shaves and it was always very comfortable BUT it is too angle sensitive. The design of the brass spring means that getting under the nose is tricky and it's that component which makes the razor so angle sensitive. One of the great things about an injector is the low profile which generally make shaving under the nose a doddle. The Bunny looses that advantage. If there's a way the spring profile could be made like a Schick injector this would be brilliant in my opinion.
@twhite510 and @riverrun thank you both for making this happen. It's been a very interesting and satisfying pass-around. Paul

So i have only just had my first shave with the Bunny last night after having it a few days. I will start by saying im very inexperienced with injectors, i only have a Schick E, which i had found a tad aggressive for me. I really only use DEs and my favourites are Gillette NEWs and Wolfmen.
Ok so i had my first shave with a few days of growth with the NOTSO comb and a Schick blade, which was supplied. I found the angle very easily, obviously a lot higher than a DE, but thats easy to see by looking at the razor. It felt brilliant to hold the razor, and i think the weight is probably just right considering the angle it needs to be at.
The shave i received (using Phoenix and Beau soap and Rooney Victorian) was a very close with 2 passes WTG + ATG, then a bit of touch up. It was very smooth for me aswell. Im still feeling very smooth this morning, so very happy first shave! I only got some minor irritation, but thats my fault for pushing on to get BBS on my first round.
So next shave i will try out the MILD comb to see if that is as close of a shave for me. I dont think i will need to test the WILD as the NOTSO was close enough in less passes than usual with DEs.

Iv manged to get 2 more shaves since my last post, both with the MILD comb. I found the shave just as close as my initial shave with the NOTSO comb, also maybe a little smoother. Iv been suprised every shave with how efficient the first pass is, gets very close for me, could even get away with just that in a rush.
I forgot to mention before that i have a moustache and goatee, so the problems some have had with the bulky head arent there for me. What i have noticed, which is no negative really, is that my beard loses a few hairs evertime i shave with the Bunny [emoji38]. I am not used to this coming from mostly DEs, they dont normally cut into my beard so easily! As i say this isnt a problem, kind of cool really that it can hack through anything. Im also not sure if this is something all injectors would do, having limited experience with them (havnt seen any other OC injectors about though).
So i will be able to get one more shave out of the Bunny before handing it over, not sure whether i should try the WILD comb as iv had so much success with MILD . Let me know what you guys recommend there. Also a question for the injector fans, i like the MILD Bunny a lot, and i want another injector, so what would be closest to it? I need something else i feel now to fill the Bunny gap until they are properly produced!

Will post a full shave report once my laptop stops having a tantrum.
But for now a first impression, I love the look and feel of the Bunny, it's a thing of beauty in my eyes, one of the nicest razors I've had the chance to try.
The feel of the handle is superb and makes moving it around your face very much an enjoyable experience.
Shave report soon.
