    Looks like Peavey have slapped a $599 price tag on the Mini Colossal whereas the Royal 8 with similar specs is $249!!
    Crazy - an extra $350 for a celebrity endorsed product. Somehow I doubt it's costing Peavey over twice as much to manufacture the Mini Colossal

    I think the Mini Colossal is a bit more different then the R8, besides the celebrity endorsement
    But, it still remains to be seen, until the two are compared with each other with actual usage,,heh
