I had similar thoughts, but I didn't think it was a 3D render. It just looks to me like there was some 'tweaking' of the reds in that first pic.
But I'm sure it's only to the degree that makes the photo appear the same as real life :)
SlikStik Christian:
The main reason we had a custom solid opaque ball made rather than an exterior only or frosted one is so that the light would refract throughout the entire ball as much as possible. In addition we modify the LED's in such a way that the beam of light is at 180 degrees or more to light up the sides and bottom.
The photos were not altered in any way except for cropping around the images. Its probably the way the camera took the photos, I would even say they are more red in person than in the photos. Also its not too visible but the bottom of the ball (in a lit room) is a little lighter than the top which is expected, but in the dark you cant see that, the entire ball glows like the sun.
Each color is different obviously; I will have photos of each very soon.
If anyone is interested I have them here in our showroom and you are more than welcome to come see them in person.

I, for one, am a believer. There's no business sense in faking it. There would just be hundreds of returns being made.
However, if people have a hard time believeing it, I'd recommend a video clip. That's a lot harder to photo shop. (Yes, that's sarcasm - not an ignorant statement.)
I don't need a video clip for proof, but I would like to see how darker colors would look.

Is there a way to make them pulsate? That would be really cool! I too, wish you offered bats as well as the ball type. I may have to have one of those for my 4-way.
