silver (this color matches the pedestal viewer, mounting jig, etc... seems
to be their favorite color).
For a while I was stocking blue and red versions, in addition to silver:

(the colors are not faithful in these pictures... the blue is deeper blue
and the red is like cherry red - I think the blue is my favorite color, but
the red is nice too).
Even though they did produce 12 different colors, they did it as an
experiment and never sold them in any quantities. DrDave is one of the few
people who got an unusual color. I asked to buy their run of colorful
viewers but they told me that they need them for their shows.
Last time I tried to order different colors, I was told that they are only
making the silver now. They asked me which one was my favorite color... I
think I said blue and asked to buy non-silver viewers. Their reply was as
follows: "It's a little complicated about the favorite color. Since everyone
gives a different answer and we don't know how to choose, this thing has
been delayed. We still take silver as the standard color."
All I have (other than silver) are 3 red viewers, if anyone is interested in
buying my last stock of non-silver viewers :)
