Get both pair!So, I ordered a pair of the Superunknowns and get an email from Jason saying the movie versions are actually a Light Tortoise with slightly tinted lenses:

But I think I'm still inclined to go with the dark tortoise...What do you guys think?
Superunknowns, as you can see from the two on the right hand side, dark tort and light tort.Do initium even sell a light and a dark version of the superunknowns?....I always thought it was just the one colour!! And tbh, it’s a bit strange that Jason is saying that its a slightly lighter lense in the movie version, (ie you need a replacement lense for movie accuracy) when he’s been saying the whole time that the superunknowns aren’t even in iron man 2....no one else find that strange??
I just noticed that on the pics you posted, the temple tips are totally different on mine (lower pic).So, I ordered a pair of the Superunknowns and get an email from Jason saying the movie versions are actually a Light Tortoise with slightly tinted lenses:

This is strange, given that there isn't even an option for "light tortoise" - (they've always been listed like this TMK)....

I too, thought that there was only 1 "tortoise" color and that it was that 1 color, which was in the movie.
So it looks like mine are the light tortoise then, I thought they were "dark" as listed.
I've always considered mine to be the "movie" versions. If you watch the scene in HD, you can see plenty "tortoise" + come to think of it, the lenses in mine are solid and not gradient.
The site too, still indicates the London Calling's featured in both IM 2&3 as "dark tortoise" & "black horn" with gradient lenses in, when as we all know, they are red havanah with non-gradient light gray lenses in both of the movies.

I think it would be a bit misleading and disappointing, if you were a newcomer to the IM films and decided to get a movie pair!!
It's a quick fix, it just needs some updating in a few areas IMO.
I suppose by highlighting the Superunknown's, we've successfully ironed out some of the inconsistencies and misconceptions surrounding them, digging around for the correct info. on IM eyewear - which IMO, is what this thread is kinda about!...good work dudes!
The Superunknown's need their IM2 recognition on the Initium website....and don't forget the British Steel's too!! Lol.
Got it!The “light” tortoise version is available in the Superunkown {RX} menu.

Red Havana Superunknown's, must have missed those too!!Superunknowns, as you can see from the two on the right hand side, dark tort and light tort. View attachment 1044573
Wow! Great find dude!!I thought my v1 Von Zipper frames were my rarest find, but I think I might've topped that. I was able to score a pair of Roy Tower Concept 2 frames!!! They definitely have a different feel to them compared to the Initium frames. The color that Jason says is the movie color is off too. I know I've said it before but the brushed gun metal is much closer to the actual RT. That's why I swapped lenses when I got them. Please enjoy the pics. Sorry it's pic heavy. Let me know if anyone wants me to take more or any other comparisons.
