All of the colored ripples are painted on the inside.
It obviously wasn't profitable to make the repro ripples. I've heard that as many as one third of the production either got broken during the grinding process or didn't meet quality control standards. Someone will eventually repop the regular gill bodies but they won't be cheap.
If you can live with repop bodies why not just caulk your lenses to a regular wide or narrow repop body?

Wanted: Gas pump globes:Sinclair & affiliates, IL companies. Ripple bodies. Anything Sinclair, Stoll, Pierce, 4 Bros.
