Or perhaps Newtron.
 
 
But why not just call it the Mark VI-D?

Well that's no good. They obviously did it to PISS YOU OFF! Now that you are not, they look rather silly.
A tit for tat thing...
Streetly M4000 mellotron
M4ooo-D  Mellotron
Sheesh,
To me, it is like saying that the MKVI and MKVII models are obsolete and doomed to irrelevance.
MKXXXIX - D100 Mellotron/Chamberli n/Optagon, is a much more logical choice; why didn't they think of this??
