There were at least a couple.
A Blue/Green solid one made by Revolution:

A Green pearl made by Columbia:

There may have been more of which I am not aware.

Be sure you''re not buying it from a large chain sporting goods store...

I vaguely recall there being a "Renegade" being made for that market by either Brunswick or possibly Ebonite.  

It would only amount to a glorified house ball...

On edit -

There was a Brunswick Renegade approved Sept. 2002 by the USBC.
There was also a blue Renegade made by AMF approved in Nov. 1995.

The one made by Revolution is a great ball (1st link by Charlest). Never really sold well. They were discontinued and available very inexpensive.

Yup, the Revolution Renegade was/is a great ball. Produced by Brunswick around 2000, by today's standards I'd call it an Avalanche Solid with a bit more steam. Cover is probably PK18 solid, could contain some particle. Still have mine, and love it for medium shots and THS in general.
