Love the look of the plant in the red stripy pot and the elongated fruit. Any ideas to fruit color on these?

I didn't grow anything this winter but I've recently sown quite a few what I hope will be mini dwarf types. Early days as they are only just peeping through, still exciting and can't wait for them to get going . I've sown some of what I call Micro Blue, I think they are at F5 or 6, not the tastiest tomato but look cute and the fruits have great keeping on the plants.

I also saved seeds from a couple of variegated dwarfs last year, now F3. I've sown a few seeds of both, and there's the possibility of a mini dwarf in the breeding. One plant I saved seed from only had slight variegation on the foliage with black tomatoes, but tasted great. Although very young these look to have really small stocky seedlings, something interesting may turn up!
