Is it just the reverse tone print that can't do 100% wet or the pedal as a whole?

The whole pedal, I believe.
The Hall of Fame couldn't do full wet either.
Actually, with the Hall of Fame it could do full wet, but you'd have to click the "kill-dry" switch inside the pedal, so it's not controllable by the mix knob.
I think the delay is the same.

I believe the kill dry is supposed to be for effect loop usage.

Wow, that's kinda hilarious. Not surprising though. Seems like a cool tweak on an already usefully sweet pedal.

I just looked at the PGS site, it seems they're either back in stock or still in stock.

Just watched this... I've been looking for a reverb and the looks, price, and sound on this is absolutely killer. My first reaction:
"I can sound like a helicopter?!...

Pretty sweet. But couldn't they make it go 100% wet?

Even if that's the case, it looks ten times better than whatever the other reverb is called.
