Default Rainsong Stars and Stripes

Looks like Rainsong has something special just in time for Independence Day: Rainsong Stars And Stripes

Definitely building on the Black Ice construction, but that is a very striking model. They list it as a very limited model, not sure where they're all being sold, but looks like Ted has the first one already. Wish I was closer, I have a feeling it looks ten times more impressive in person!

I'm glad that Rainsong's website is doing a better job letting folks know what are possible configurations, but I won't be one of the few who acquire a Stars & Stripes Edition...

If it had blue in it...it would be more tempting.

Honestly though, the carbon construction of the RainSongs makes me want to see the natural carbon. I don't really care for the colored RainSongs.
Love my Black Ice natural!!

What were they thinking?! The motif and colors seem more appropriate to the Hammer & Sickle!

I think it would look much better in Black instead of that red clearcoat.

Rainsong's colored offerings have never done anything for me though.
