I would think the bait will be the same as the originals and will continue to be made in the UK , my sorry is they start making the metalwork in china, if so no more solar for me.

Before I bought my worldwide pod I asked solar if it was made in the UK , their answer was yes.

Being as some of the old Mix master flavours were made by a German confectionery company that hasn't been trading for a rather long time, I doubt if many of the 'originals' can even be sourced, let alone be put into bait.

The Solarbait 'originals' are anything but original - below is a clip from the press release in 2017:-
Now, with access to new ingredients, new processes and new sourcing possibilities, the entire Solar Bait range is undergoing a transformation. The first ‘wave' of new baits, strangely, won't be new at all! Working on the heritage baits that built Soalr's reputation in the bait market, the original Club Mix, Red Herring, Top Banana and Quench baits will be the first to be re-released.
“Essentially,” explains Martin Locke. “As with all things there is a natural evolution over the years and we have tried to improve the Solar boilies over time with slight updates and tweaks as needed. With today's possibilities, it seems very strange, but the best way to move the baits forward is to go back, re-launching a selection of the very original baits, with newer baits to follow such as an uprated Candy Floss and the TunaMino baits that have been trialed by our fieldtesters for the past year.”

To be fair, very few baits will be the same as they were 20 years ago. Several products are now unavailable.
