I thought the TopRaider I got last summer from Mills Fleet Farm was a weird fluke. I love TopRaiders and I hadn't ever seen this color before... it was the last one on the shelf and I snagged this one up last summer (2009). It's all black with very weird tan/dark brown tiger stripes on the side.

This morning I went to Fleet Farm and bought another Plano storage box for my BullDawgs and wandered down the aisle with their musky tackle. Looking at the TopRaiders again, I spotted another color I hadn't ever seen before. The tag just above the lure did say: "2010 Fleet Farm Custom TopRaider". An employee was organizing the merchandise and brought out the last of them. He said this color was just put out on the floor Friday evening and he knew for a fact they had sold more than ten. After I snagged one of them, there were officially three more left on the shelf at the Oshkosh store. The employee did say after these three are gone... they're gone.

Just thought I'd give you guys a heads up and maybe check your local Fleet Farm for their custom colors.

Personally some of you guys think color is that much of a factor. They do look pretty neat thou.

I'm a big fan of the bottom one!!! Next weekend I'm going to have to go check it out, probably be gone by then but I'm sure they'll have something else there that will catch my eye and I'll have to have it.

I bought an all white shallow invader at fleet farm 2 years ago. At the time I saw that they were going on e-bay for $30 as a custom show color. I could've sold it, but I thought it looked to cool in the water to get rid of.
