Concerning the availability of Red Bears - they are hard to obtain, but it might be a case of checking their website regularly to see what will be available and when. Unfortunately their recent Picker's Choice in heavy gauge has just finished, but it will come round again eventually. I have a Red Bear I managed to nab ages ago which is still going strong, and I bought a new one last Friday through their Picker's Choice. I think their Tuff Tones are available again, though I've never tried one.
Last I checked Red Bear's site, which I admit has been quite a while, you could not place a order for any pick. Instead, they produced random versions of pick models throughout the week and released them for sale every Friday morning. At that point it was like a feeding frenzy for those who were wanting to buy, with everyone trying to purchase at one time. It was then I gave up on Red Bear.
