I’m excited for this and interested to see what “tool packs” are available and how they’re operationally defining “fully custom.”

You can only choose colors not different tools   :facepalm:

What a bummer! The only "customization" options for the tools is  to select between black oxide or silver colors, and between serrated edged blade and scissors; I hoped for a real option like when the Build Your Own program existed. Would have been nice to select between blades, scissors, awl; add the blade exchanger, and maybe the long Phillips.

Bummer, indeed. Welp that excitement lasted all of 5 seconds.

It doesn’t even look like that much in terms of color options either…

Not enough customization. It absolutely sucks that if you want a red frame, you're stuck with that hideous red blade and a red bit driver.   I was wanting something that was red with a black blade and tools, but that was impossible. You also can't go with other blade options, such as part-serrated or the Rescue model's strap cutter.  The "tool" packs are also disappointing. I was hoping I could get a Center Drive with the jigsaw blade holder.

Maybe Snap-On will give us their version of the Center Drive, which likely would be as such, and maybe also feature a unique tool layout. I know they currently offer a variant of the MP600 Pro Scout that is awesome.

I was hoping that the text I received from Gerber wasn't showing me all if the options. Unfortunately, it was  :twak:

I dunno, I think there are some pretty sweet combinations!

Just playing around quickly I came up with this!

Def, you need to contact gerber and get them to make yellow. Then we can have another MTO exclusive multi!  :like:

In the 90s we were able to order everything custom.   I have a factory blue 600 with black blades including a hoof pick.
