Depending on how bad you want it, you can buy it in the United States and get it forwarded to the United Kingdom. Even the green ones are hard to get here.

Everything green is hard to get from my driver, either he sells them all first day or just doesn't order them.
I have a full set that i use everyday but i want the new style handles. Interested in a used set?

Not a good reason.

Are you the sole person that determines whether a reason is good or is it decided by committee?

I have a full set except my largest in green old style handles. The largest is a new style handle. Last I talked to Snap On, you cannot order the old style anymore. If you do, it just gets superseded by the new style, and that is what you are shipped. This is as of two weeks ago when I had to warranty my largest.
I dont like the new ones as much.

This must be very new just 2 weeks ago my dealer said he could still get both old and new but the 36 and 42 were questioned

As Kermit the frog said, it isn't easy being green.
Good luck on your search.

I am pretty good with my dealer I can ask him if he is willing to ship overseas I can forward you his number after I talk with him on Friday and see that is best I can do
Just on the demolition chisel. It's a little bulky but can take a beating.

I got the new style. I like them. I used the old style w/o the striking handle before I got these. I liked the way the older style handles looked better, but I can't complain about the new ones. Feel good in my hand and do what they are supposed to do. Haven't had to strike it yet, but I have no worries about them not handling it.

Hate them. I think they are way too bulky. Actually ran in to a place where the handle wouldnt fit in the area I was prying.

In the scheme of things does it matter what color the handle is? As a professional mechanic my only concern is do I have a pry bar and can I reach it.

If you have a choice of colours would you not want to pick a colour you like?

Red handles hurt my hands, orange ones hurt my eyes, yellow are too hard to find, black are too plain, and blue would be awesome, but I settled for green.

To me its just a tool like a shovel or a hammer.

Well that's you.
When you buy a car do you just buy whatever there is for sale or do you pick one in a colour you like?
It's just a simple matter of personal preference.
