PolySix reissue looks more probable:
All the colours resonate with the Korg 'Poly' series, so must be one of them. The PolySix certainly has more instant tweakability and is considered a Korg classic (having been emulated numerous times), whereas the Poly61 or 800 are less so.

It's probably another range of Guitar Tuners
and a matching guitar strap in those colors

Oh know, i got tears rolling down my face from a mini key kick to the groan
Wait a minute, maybe its a Kronos Module
to be serious, I mentioned a Kronos app/module a few weeks ago.
A new smallish keyboard product does not need silly mini keys, IMO. Any small controller of choice will work.

I was forced to program and play a P61 once... I still have horrific flashbacks.
Strange, I was pretty sure I posted a comment on another forum earlier today about the colour of Electribes, and a stupid idea (perhaps) of them being bundled together in some form - I can't find the post now, looks like it may have been pulled

Is the Poly61 the same as the PolySix (I am not familiar with those) ?
Could it be a tenth Kronos engine ?

No, it's a different thing altogether. It's a 6-voice DCO paraphonic synthesizer (has just one filter and one amp for all the voices), whereas the original Polysix was fully polyphonic 6-voice, with VCOs.

The champain aka golden electribe.
Both units in one, twice the power, all bugs ironed out, all user features requested in the petition, and then some.
Since the e2/es2 relaunch, all the other colors are covered.
Don't put the blame on me if I'm right.

Who thinks Poumtschak should be banned if he's right?
(My guess is it's a 2600. Someone high profile I know who I'd guess is in the know has just put their ARP2600 up for sale)

Those colors have absolutely nothing to do with a 2600.

I just hope it won't be a TOY"O'RUS keyboard.

Surely not Mr. Doty? He wouldn't give up his beloved ARP would he?

Maybe it is a universal Kronos keyboard case that can withstand the rigors of
airline travel. IF it is too big... just stuff soft foam in there to take up the extra space.
