I see more dark bronze.
And it DEFINITELY says “yanny” in turbo mode. 
I completely agree, and I’ll be the first to admit that I’m not overly keen on the type of purple like the one pictured. We’ve already seen lights in thst shade of purple that looks almost like fuchsia (e.g. Astrolux A01 with its horrible next-mode memory). Personally, I prefer the darker tones with a higher blue component such as Cadbury’s Purple. Or if we stay with warmer tones, maybe a dark plum / wine red. There are so many shades of purple, so why stick with what is so common? That particular shade seems over-used to me - not just in flashlights but also in other products, which imho makes it look ‘cheap’. Let’s be a bit more adventurous!
If I understand correctly, white ano is made the same way as silver ano, or virtually any other color except “natural” — by adding dye. Natural ano is without dye, silver can technically be done without except it’s extremely thin, and the common type-II colors (including silver) just use different colors of dye.
With type-III ano, the natural color is strong enough to make lighter dye colors look bad… so those are usually natural or black or dark grey.
Anyway, it does seem to be white… or at least a pretty light grey. We should find out more soon.
I agree. I hope they end up with something close to the Cadbury purple.

I never knew there were so many different shades of “Purple”… all with a different name. 
And the ones below are just a small fraction of them….

Or…. ‘we’ could just go with ’Barney Purple’……

Convoy’s violet S2+ is a gorgeous shade of purple. I’d love to see a shade very similar to this used on the FW3A.
From what I remember, the white dye particles were too large to fit inside the etched surface you get with aluminum which is why we never see white anodization. Anyway, maybe they figured out a way to do it.
I like the plum color, would want even a bit more red/darkness added to give it some depth. And maybe marmorize it with a little bit black.
White anodization is definitely possible.
I have a white Emisar D4 that is quite nice. It has a grainy surface though. Not sure what the surface texture is on the white FW3A.
I think on the Emisar products they might acid etch the surface, add the white dye then seal it. I’m not sure. The grainy surface is a key that they are doing something unique. It may not be true anodization like we see with other colors, though. Here’s an article on why there’s no white.
I wonder if we can get Lumintop to comment on the white finish.
Exactly. Many people prefer light with a negative Duv, but, objectively speaking, negative and positive Duv are equally deviant from the reference standard. (Of course, there is nothing sacred about the BBL, but it does represent the light, both natural and artificial, in which humans evolved and adapted.)
As a (subjective) aside, I see little or no green in the high CRI SST 20’s (of unknown bin) in my Emisar D4S, even at low levels, although I accept that, objectively, they are above BBL. And when I light up the ship half-model above my desk, which has blues, reds, and wood tones, the SST’s are significantly richer in color than the XP-L HI 3D’s in my FW3A.
An interesting question: why do humans prefer magenta light over green?
I like the burgundy / maroon one on the left. The metallic purple 2nd from left looks a bit richer, less “lilac” than the 2nd from right.
Teal looks pretty nice too.
Original: I like the 3rd one best here, the pinkish purple.
Gotta go with the second one here, a darker purple. I like all of the colors though.
Gotta go with the second one here too, the darker more vivid magenta. The wine color on the left is nice, too.
I don’t know what we’ll actually get, but I’m liking these darker and more vivid purples people made.
I just love colorful lights! What about orange or to be different a neon type yellow? I’d LEGO a blue and yellow together for sure!
Different body colours are perfect to distinguish between different led types…
Will the code also work for those lights? If so, I will wait for them and order once, they are available…

The burning question is……. which one is closest to the ‘Gold Standard’???

Barney Purple
But, in the final analysis (as much as possible with LT); ToyKeeper (IMO) should have the say so as to what Purple to use. . 
Don’t watch with kids around lol
Pick any purple shade you want … just give me THIS one!
!
!
I’m with you timbo114…… :+1:
The TK Purple one is a given… I hope.
I like the Blue too. But the more I look at that Army Green/Dark Olive the more I like it.
I would be most happy if in addition to the FW3A-TK they did both the Blue & the Army Green. :+1: . Why not, it will just be more sales.
But… it ain’t my call. Time will tell……
