With Chris King's "remote" open house coming up soon we thought we'd take a look back at some of the previous editions and some of the stunning custom builds that the event always features.

We're hearing there will be no new colors coming out this year, which while a little disappointing does make sense as Chris King focus on producing as many of the existing colored arts as possible to satisfy the still growing demand for parts and long lead times.

So, sit back and enjoy some quality bling builds and reminisce with us about some of those colors that have come and gone like Matte Punch & Matte Bourbon.
