Besides anodized black, what colors would you like to see the switches in?

Copper might be a good one.

I've only seen them in nickle and black. Are there any pictures of the other colors or is this something that you would be having custom made? It would be nice to see some options before I chime in.

Clear! (I kid, I kid)

What about a brushed metal/gunmetal (dark) color?

I think your regular 'metallic' colors will sell nicely..

gold, copper, brushed....

I am NOT a huge fan of colors in sabers.. so (in my mind) I dont see reds, blue..etc being a big hit.. (but ya never know)

Black Chrome could look cool.

Brushed or dull metal is at the top of my list, followed closely by nickel and brass.

Other than black, the only non-metallic colors I can imagine being at all versatile would be a basic red and maybe an off-white.

However, if tortoise-shell becomes an option, ignore all of my previous comments. That stuff is classy. :p

For lighted AVs? Brass, chrome and ultra flat black (something that comes as close as possible to aluminum that has been thoroughly coated in Aluminum Black).

I have to wonder if these switches actually come in all the colors that people are asking for.

That's why I asked. Hard to give my opinion when I don't have a little more info. Generally speaking though, I'd be happy with a gold option and that just about covers it. What would make me happier would be to see the black switches with LED colors besides just red.

+1 for that. Also a +1 for copper, gold/brass as well. I think those alone open up so many options. especially a copper.

Since this also seems like a wish list type of question, I vote for anodized or powdercoated colors, with white dots/rings.

Maybe Tim should have given the possible color options instead of asking such an open question.

Wishing is fine, but if it's not realistic, you won't be seeing every color wished for.

Since he said "besides black anodized" I'm guessing anodizing them any colour might be an option....wishful thinking.
I'm not too keen on colourful switches but gold, brass, chrome/nickel, copper, and yeah black would be really nice. Copper and black the most although I could see red being popular too.

I got my gold and nickel plated ones yesterday and they are gorgeous...but like others I'd love to see a COPPER one...that would complement those nicely methinks.

Maybe also one that matches the "media blasted" finish. And red anodized.

I also agree with all the metal colors, brass/gold, copper and along with those maybe a red, since several sabers have red greeplies on them may as well use some of them as a switch. Maybe a red with and with out a LED in it.

I would like to see black illuminated switches in other colors other than red. I've seen them on sabers but I just can't seem to find them & that's purple illuminated switches. Ring & dot.

Nevermind on this.. there was a little comunication issue and black is the only option at this time it seems.

I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.

Too many "suddenly"s in your quote. The first one doesn't belong there. ;)
