I think it would be cool to get one of those fugly military olive / beige / greyish kind of vintage colors going on. But I like the 4 colors you posted. Here's another one I made that you might place in the 'fugly vintage' family: Yeah I really like that. Kind of a coffee/copper thing, that is excellent.

A champagne color would look pretty classy. I like it!! Edit: your Champage is definitely classier than my fugly vintage version.

That champagne is hot. Call it "cham-pan-yuh"
Have a one way mirror to see the transformer. Each model comes with some ants on a log. Extra logo on the back silhouette of a wealthy pervert with a mustache in a robe.

I'd like to see a true relic version. Body tube dirty, scuffed, scratched, looking like total shit. The mic version of this...

Sure, why not! -- and for the truest vintage tone, I can also get like 50-100 people to spit on the capsule, and then I'll leave it in a shed for several months. Big upcharge for that service though.

Before selling them, put the relic'ed mics on stands and I'd be happy to rent my dogs to you at a reasonable rate so they can knock them over. It would be a very personalized service of course and you'd have to ship those mics in their own driftwood box with the motto "Heiserman Microphones - Every Dent is Different" burned into the lid.

Personally I like the Grey finish. The champagne looks nice, but reminds me of the Peluso mics.
2k with close Sonics would be amazing!

I predict 3 weeks after the first one ships we see one listed on eBay as vintage 1960’s😎

I picture someone in a WWII movie with that thing, twisting knobs, sending a distress call to the OSS. Lol

Special Rambo Edition. Not to be confused with the limited run of the Chuck Norris signature series. Nor the "Predator" model.
Stick around! Chris

BTW my "47=" joke was just that.
What you guys are doing, making these microphones more $$ accessible, is terrific. Chris
