A red prototype of the TFPrime Rumble toy has surfaced (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-prime-39/transformers-prime-deluxe-frenzy-test-shot-images-176546/), with the source claiming that it is no longer being released by Hasbro as Frenzy (don't worry though - both colour versions are still being released by TakaraTomy in about a months time).
When it comes to the colours of Rumble and Frenzy, as of the last 4 years, someone at Hasbro has wanted the red ones to always be Frenzy and the blue ones to always be Rumble (to match the Gen1 cartoon instead of the toys). Unfortunately for us, TakaraTomy are sticking with the traditional toy colours, so when we have these two character names being used these days, the names are swapped between Hasbro and JP releases.... just to make it more confusing than it already was.
