The redesign is fantastic! And while I miss having that blue character dude always in the upper left, I think it's the right move for then to move away from the character from a branding perspective. That dude gave a bit of a cool underground underdog type feel, which I loved, but simplifying their brand I think will allow them to step up on a broader plateau.
It's internally referred to as "bluecheese" and it's not available for download. The standard practice adopted when the first theme was launched and reconfirmed in the redesign is that the current drupal.org theme is reserved for use on drupal.org in order to protect the brand.
The IP history of the previous theme makes it unlikely that it will be released, but it's unlikely anyone wanted it at this point anyway.
