    Maybe it will replace Sandy Beach Metallic in 2011.

    Upon closer inspection, I believe the blue is more solid. There's still that light purple colour though.

    My wife HATES all of the 2010 colors. Her two favorite 09 colors were discontinued. She'd be a blue moon fan, I'm sure. But I hope that they DON'T introduce new, "good" colors in 2011! We'll have to trade in the boring 2010 for a new 2011.

    Blue Ribbon is deeper than Blue Moon and almost as dark.

    Ok so the colours are out in Japan.

    The blue one is called Aqua Blue Metallic

    The purple one is harder to translate.... all I got was Ice "Pa gu shi ru ba"...mica metallic..

    Maybe Ken would like to translate that for us.

    Ok so Ken's got that translated.

    It's Iceberg Silver Mica Metallic for the purple colour.
