I'm hoping that it's just a different color and not a little redesign.  I can resist buying a new color I don't like, and the last thing I need to do is buy another Arc.

It looks to be just  different scales.

So I’m seeing that you can get a black pocket clip with the Talos, sold separately. Whoever is making the decisions there is really working hard to rub customers the wrong way.

Black pocket clips  :o   Thanks for the tip  :hatsoff:   The 25% discount on accessories is still on, so I bought 5  :tu:

The new Talos color looks nice, but not nice enough for me to buy another Arc.

Epsilon suggests a small quantity, so maybe that is a new Curl.

Hmmm. Interesting thought. I am guessing that maybe this is what they were originally calling the Wave Sport.

The Epsilon sounds like a Squirt- or Juice-sized tool.   Or not… a standard bit driver wouldn’t fit in a keychain sized tool.

  I had to go check myself to see if that was real.

On one hand it's ridiculous, but on the other hand it's pretty smart of Leatherman.  There's a large "EDC community" on Reddit and social media that loves matchy matchy tools that go with their handkerchiefs and flashlights that will buy this new color.

With the Charge being officially retired, the Alpha release looks to be near.

Interesting, looks like a merge of Charge and Wave(+) with large scissors. Wonder what it'll cost...

Yeah I think $199.95 would be a good guess.  As high as possible, but less than the ARC.   :facepalm:

I''ll buy one, because what else am I going to spend my money on?  :ahhh

Its a Wave+/Charge+ with MagnaCut, Surge scissors and G10.

I'm not super excited about Leatherman using the same ingredients to make the same recipe again, but we take our dopamine where we can get it.   :salute:

I like: Wave file and large scissors.
I still don't like the mini screwdriver of their idea of an awl.
I am ambivalent about Magnacut.
But it does look cool.   :cheers:

If I can get it for less than two hundos through work or something  :think:

Does anyone else find it bizarre that they didn’t put black oxide on the saw?

Prepare for a stainless flavor in due course.  Which of course I will buy.   :ahhh   

And given Leatherman's growing penchant for fancy pants colors, maybe we'll see Mocha or Pumpkin Spice scales in the future. 

 :cheers:

Does that lock on the scissors look different to anyone?  I had heard something awhile back about upgraded locks.

Yeah, I have no need for a new tool that's essential an Arc without the Free technology, so I'll probably buy both colors  :facepalm:
