26 glen blue availability

Is the glen blue 26 run over? I hope not, I've been saving my ducats and was ready to purchase it but can't find it for sale. There were plenty on Webers site last month. If anyone has inside info, let me know. Thanks guys

Been watching the Weber website and saw that they took the grill off the site completely.  I’d bet they’re bringing another color before long.  Hoping for a yellow 18” or 22”.

Weber is finished with the 26" Glen Blue run.  A few months ago, there were plans for the introduction of an 18.5" Spring Green Weber Smokey Mountains.  I don't know if the plans have changed.

That would help ease the pain. Thanks for the report fellas. A little sick I didn't get in earlier but good things always around the corner. @BamaKettles, I hope you're right about a potential yellow release

I went back/forth on picking up a glen blue 26 and finally pulled the trigger in mid December.  Still haven't unboxed it and probably should just to make sure it's not damaged in any way.  A yellow 18 or 22 would be pretty cool.  I like what Weber did with the glen blue 26 - felt like a throwback, but it was actually a grill that hadn't existed in the wild previously.  If they started re-making collectible grills (Aristocrat, yellows, etc) it would certainly make some folks happy, but might frustrate part of their collector-base by reducing market prices on collectible grills - why spend $1k plus on a vintage/mint Aristocrat/Westerner if I can pick one up fresh off the line for under $500.  I know there are differences between vintage build quality vs. current materials/build-quality - but a lot of folks could probably look past that to get their "grail".  Just my $.02 - I like their current approach - offering color/size combinations that are unique - creating new "grails" for the future.

Is there a picture of that? That sounds cool.

Spring green WSM would be cool but I also wouldn’t be shocked to see the European Glen Blue MT released stateside as well.

I sent Weber an email the other day asking about glen blue: "when are you going to release a Master Touch kettle in glen blue?"

Their reply was: "Thank you for reaching out to us.

While we do not have plans in the near future to offer a Glen Blue Master-Touch, I will be happy to forward your interest to the appropriate team.

Weber is constantly working on ways to improve our products and our customer experience and many of our product updates are a direct result of consumer feedback."

Maybe if they get enough interest, they will offer them here in the US.
a blue MT, a yellow 70th, a red 1990, 3 SJ's, 2 CGAs, a Gen II, a Q and a WSM

Released in OZ and already have scalpers wanting $1500 for one as it was limited. I don't think we hold the cards on colours that's for sure
