Dat cream text on datgreen... yummy.
Unfortunately I have like 4 tremolos on my board.
it's sort of weird when you consider all the other stuff being posted but i get so hard for some of those Boss color combinations, especially the older ones with cream knob tops like DSD2, RV2, PS2.
Never really been a fan of graphics on pedals either, i just like looking down and seeing things color coded and functional.

I also always wanted an EAR AD4096, really like the way those look but too expensive to buy out of curiosity.

Hey, I like my Source Audio Soundblox Pro Multiwave Distortion. I like how it sounds and I think it looks cool. Though that's one hell of a long name.

Bought this last week, almost solely because of looks. Its an awesome pedal, but I really don't need it. Looks so good on my board though.

Call me shallow, but good looks are almost a requirement for me..

Glitter.
I'm a sucker for glitter on stuff. I've had several pedals I've had trouble flipping not because I need them but they sparkle so nicely.

Are those actually worth the hype?

I loved how terrifying the Second Voice Deluxe looked, it made everybody go bonkers. Too bad it was pretty weak imho.

No $400 dirt pedal is worth the hype.
