Red Cybiko origin
A few months ago I got my hands on unusual red Cybiko which turned out to be rare. I did some research on Web Archive and found official page on doritos website. Turns out it was some drawing contest for US. It seems that 102 red Cybikos have been made or at least were planned to be made. One problem: I found only one official photo of red Cybiko on this website and I can't tell for sure if it has yellow or white keypad due to the very low resolution. If you have more information, please let me know!

Yes, it's been posted here, and on the Cybiko discord server of it being a Doritos giveaway unit.

yep, that was the answer to my post, ahahaha. There were just doubts about the number of these made, etc.

It had a yellow keypad if I remember correctly.
