When the obsessions were first made available, you could pick your sleeve color.

I think it'll probably just be a trick of the light if they look a pinky colour. The limited edition sleeves aren't as deeply coloured as the metal versions so it could be that? Neither my blue or red sleeves show any sign of fading.

As an FYI, there are only two limited edition colour sleeves: red and blue. There was never a green. Also, just to avoid confusion, the colour of the sleeve doesn't necessarily tell you what colour core it is. When they were available you could have any colour sleeve (blue, black or red) on any maze (blue, green, black or red).

Either way, the coloured sleeve aren't all that common.

Hope that helps,

Chris

Thanks Chris.The listing does not say wich one it is so i will ask them as looking at the sleeve i assumed it was the red maze.

Can you see the sticker on the end of the shaft? This sticker should denote the maze colour.

No its just a top veiw but i have sent a question asking what color the maze is and if they are used or unused they have two (seperate listings) that look the same so i should ask what maze is in the other really.

LOL!
ebay seller wrote:Hi everyone, thank you for the (NOW) 19 questions received about the Revomaze , I will now add more information as best as I can.
One question I had was, what colour is the puzzle?? Well it's light red !!!
The centre piece is made from a white delrin plastic.
There is no markings on the end of the white plastic rod.
What a pity he only ships to the UK...

And the rest:
ebay seller wrote:On one end of the light red centre piece there is a tiny 1mm dimple hole.
The overall length of the centre piece is 85mm, the largest diameter is approx 46mm.
The diameter of the white delrin rod is 23mm and the overall length is approx 118mm.
Apart from this I do not know a great deal about the Revomaze puzzle.
Both bought last Christmas for me and my partner, not really our thing, unwanted xmas present.
Hope this helps.
Oh !!!!, there is no box or any other packaging, to tell you the truth I can't remember any to start with.
I think these were purchased at Meadowhall in Sheffield from some gadget shop.

That's it."I think !!"
Sounds like it's a gamble as to what you'll get. Now as I own all but the Red the odds aren't exactly in my favour.

So I think I'll pass this time.
