Funnily enough, I rarely get a choice in what colours my tamas are, usually because I've been given most of them, and the ones I have picked out are usually the only colours available. The only tamas I've picked the colours of are my Akai (I chose silver) and my Morino (I chose yellow). If I were to have the choice, I'd get silver again . Or maybe yellow. But any colour is fine with me! Long as I get one!
