I sure hope they don't have red :roll: time for a change

I'm really digging the new drag star and handle design.

I like how the dark grey looks but I'll just wait till I see the US version first before I pull the trigger. I love how the DC looks my favorite color so far. I own a Metanium 100, HG, now the DC and a Curado I. That's too much grey for me. Just my opinion.

Not to sure if the thumb rest is going to be very comfortable on the Alde. Hope I am wrong.
