The Standard Edition boards (Back to the Future, 8-Bit, Hard Candy and Night Drive) do not include front cover cutouts for blocker lighting. However, DIY blocker RGB lighting hardware (LEDs, individual PCB, etc.) is included in all variants regardless of cutouts. Special RGB Edition boards (Laser and Mech Love) include blocker RGB cutouts by default. All variants come with "LESS IS MORE" engraved above the USB Type-C port. In addition, a distinctive retro aging effect is applied exclusively to Mech Love, with a unique finish on each individual board.
