That color is… no.

Anyway, I would be curios to see what they’ll change in this Protostar that’s apparently coming out soon.

They have made a few special edition Protostars with different colored anodize weight rings before.

Nothing surprising, just a special edition probably.

The splash weight rings look pretty neat with the clear plastic, I wonder if the plastic is a different material.
