I have been able source RGB pixel strings (similar to MPH pixel strings) from Ray Wu. He had been kind enough to now post these new product on his web store. The price of these is nearly 1/4 the price of the MPH pixels so makes it very affordable to a lot more enthusiasts
RGB Pixel strings using the 6083 chip is a 4 wire 5vdc RGB string that can have each light individually controlled through DMX to give some awesome effects.
These can be found at Ray Wu's On-line store at http://www.aliexpress.com/fm-store/701799/209889132-314086573/3-chip-RGB-full-color-through-hole-led-channel-letter-6803IC-pixed-controlled-DC5V-input-waterproof.html
Now to run these lights you will need a 6803 DMX decoder which can also now be obtained from Rays store at http://www.aliexpress.com/fm-store/701799/209915969-314083682/LT-6803-DMX-Decoder-DC5-24V-input-LPD6803-specific-protocol-output-signal-Max256-steps-.html
You will also need a 5VDC power supply to run the lights, you could use an old computer power supply or you can get these from Rays store at a very good price at this link http://www.aliexpress.com/fm-store/701799/209855560-289599937/350W-Dual-Output-Switching-Power-Supply-88-264VAC-input-5V-350W-output-CE-and-ROHS-approved.html
You will also need a dmx dongle to connect the controllers to the computer, these can be obtained for approx US$60 from different places in the DIY community. try looking at these places

If your unsure just ask and we should be able to help
And finally you will need good RGB sequencing software and that is Lightshow Pro 1.7 which you can download a 30 day demo before deciding to purchase (demo is limited to 16 output channels only)

Now if you want to have some RGB 6083 pixel strips as well you can also use this with the DMX controller, the strip can also be obtained from Rays on-line store here http://www.aliexpress.com/fm-store/701799/209843764-306378431/LED-Digital-strip-with-6803-IC-30pcs-5050-SMD-per-meter-DC12V-input-with-silicon-tubing.html
the strip runs on 12VDC but uses the same controller as the strings to communicate and can be bought through Rays store as well http://www.aliexpress.com/fm-store/701799/209855560-289599951/350W-Dual-Output-Switching-Power-Supply-88-264VAC-input-12V-350W-output-CE-and-ROHS-approved.html
There are also standard RGB string lights that can be bought through Ray as well, these run on 5VDC and support for these being used through the Tiger controller range is being investigated and appears that this will work, further info on that to come. but you can take a look at the RGB light strings here http://www.aliexpress.com/fm-store/701799/209889132-314089657/Through-hole-LED-channel-letter-DC5V-input-RGB-waterproof-0-3W-120degree-beam-angle-P-N.html
So it looks like exciting times for RGB lighting and the prices that Ray has on these products will definitely now makes RGB a serious contender
Expect to see some reviews in the near future regarding these exciting products
