All being said - I think alot of it has to do with superstition - "I need my 
blue tine for that move" - or "I messed up because I didn't pick up my 
non-weighted tin".  I know many flairers get superstitious, I hear some call 
their tins their "children". 

Glow in the dark tins are cool - try get the matching glos in the drak 
"plastic" (ahem) glass with it. ooh and glow int he dark flair bottles.
