Wow, can believe he started way back then! It must be one of his then, but I'll ask him to make sure.

Edit: he isn't receiving messages, so I hope he sees this thread...

As far as I know all the purple Kaukaus are fanmade. Flintsmith is a BZP member known for making them.

Except the image is from 2005. If I remember correctly Flintsmith made his in around 2013 and user Omega12 also made one in 2014, long after this picture was taken.

Does anyone know the origin/provenance of the dark Purple Kaukau. To my knowledge only two people have made custom trans-Purple Kaukaus, both of which were a different shade. Additionally I could only ever find one picture of it (on biomedia) bearing a specific watermark, mikedotbe, which is also found on numerous pictures of misprinted kanohi. This makes me think it's a misprint rather than a custom, however, it is often left off lists of misprinted or prototype kanohi. Any information about it would be greatly appreciated.

Update: Flintsmith confirmed that it is most likely one of his customs
