On 1/23/2016, G&L posted this on their facebook page:
G&L Musical Instruments The Delrin block has recently been discontinued. Dealers told us they prefer us to use traditional ferrules.
Here is an example:

I would definitely I say I prefer the look of the individual ferrules. Might also be a bit more resistant to string pressure than delrin.
