i dont think it fits over the full body skins. it worked with my lucky labs skin for the sides but it was a tight fit ( i liked that, dunno about others). only 9 bucks though, worth a try
I just contacted them through ebay about when the rest of the Replicases would be updated like the white and the black. I got a very fast response
We do not have a set time table for when they will be introduced but you
should expect more colors to be updated sometime next week.
Thank you for contacting us!

Hey guys I just got my Black [updated] Replicase. I ordered it Friday night so I was suprised it came today considering Labor Day weekend. It has many differences compared to the original Replicase.
First of all, of course, the camera hole is larger to accommodate the flash perfectly. I have tested the flash in dark rooms (large and small) and it no longer exists! finally!
Second, it's much more slimmer compared to the original replicase. When I put them down side by side, I think the original is 1mm taller (when flat) than the updated replicase. This is a great thing way less bulky. I believe this is because the curve that goes to the front of the screen (so you can lay it flat without the screen touching) was made smaller. It feels more natural now but still has the same ability for protection.
The sides are now matte. Whether or not that's a good thing is completely up to the user. Also, the cutouts for the volume/vibrate switch is better.
I'd like to note that this case CANNOT be used with a rear screen protector or side screen protectors. I used a best skins ever and had to take the rear protector off to put the case on. It would not sit flush with it on. You can still use any screen protector, though.
Sorry about the poorly lit images.

Looks like they got the updated red one up now! thanks for letting them know we'd like more colors
The seller cimousa does not seem to have any replicase cases in their store. What other sellers have people here used that are good? How do I know if what they are selling is the same product as above, and that is is the newer v2 style? I want the white one, and quick shipping would be best.
