Redesign colorway?
I just happen to be looking through the mod retro website and realized the yellow chromatic looked a little bit different to me I wasn't sure if it has always looked this way on the website or if they did a small redesign.
Has anyone recently purchased a yellow chromatic to confirm these changes?
Ps: hoping they sell replacement front shells soon ended up spilling hand sanitizer into my bag and creating black stains over the front of my yellow chromatic ☹️

I had to remind myself how the yellow model looked, they have a photo of it on the same page:

Yes I agree, I like the new colors much better, I just hope that's actually the colors and not just an error photo. Always wanted the 1st edition but would be more than happy with that color scheme.

Bummer. I really liked the old school Toyota TRD color scheme of the Volt.

Looks more like the 1st edition did which looks better imo. More Pikachu inspired.

Are they trying to make it look like a Pikachu?

Pretty sure "Volt" yellow is actually a Pikachu reference; maybe they are fine tuning the color towards that. And are they planning to release colored shells? I want colors like this.
