The Pro Elite was nothing like the 80 except for it being a big break barrel. On second thought, it was like the 80 a bit. I guess it's kind of hard to make something that's truly different. Just like cars when you think about it. They all have wheels and an engine and get you from place to place. Some just look better doing it just like the Pro Elite looked so much better than the 80. I used to have both and all are now gone to fund purchases of that rip off TX200.
