The newer shimanos are comprable w/ lucky craft I have some that I have cought many fish on, the details are not quite as nice as lucky craft but they are a premium lure. They also have Shmiano extreme lures made for shimano by Bagley's in the early 90's these are worth a lot of money and are collectors items.
