We can't be sure - we've asked that someone look into it for us.  Once
we find out, we'll let you know :)

No, the list is not complete - at BW03 Bill (one of the MasterBuilders) brought
out his color list and let us see it. He even had a color copy of it he handed
out to a few of us. If I recall correctly these are the colors they (the
MasterBuilders) could order, and they were the 2003 colors.

He gave Todd L. the list of names that went with the numbers with the
undersanding Todd would post them, but I do not recall that list ever making it
to the public.

Anyway, I have a pic of the color plate he brought out here:

You will see the some (maybe all, I did not check each and every one) missing
numbers on the public list are on this example.

It is good to see a list wiggle its way out to the public after all these years.
Kinda funny how we get what we want and say 'ah, ok - well we like our names
better' as I do not see BL using these names either.

I did a comparison of the list from peeron with the color tile swatches from
your photo...  The TLC/peeron list has a range of colors above 200 that are not
on the tile swatches. Conversely, the tile swatches are present for the
following numbers that are not on the list: 20, 109, 114, 117, 129, 132, 144 and
156. The TLC list does not mention any glitter colors, but 114, 117, 129 and 132
appear to have glitter. All but 132 may be Clikit colors. 132 (which looks like
black glitter) might be the color used for the SW 7159 buckets. I wonder if all
the other number gaps were once valid colors.

Possibly the last three in the TLC list are glitter colours, 176 178 and 179,
the 'flip-flop' colours? I'm not certain I think that in paint terms at least
this means colours that change depending on viewing angle

I asked him if he had cleared it (his distributing it and/or the public
disclosure of it online) with LEGO IP attorneys and he indicated no.

Ah. All I recall was he wanted to give it to somebody who could get it to the
masses. But since a list was made public by Lego I think it would be safe to put
out the list that you have, if you still have it... Do you still have it?

Mark,

Is Maersk Blue included in the picture you have above ? If so, which number is
it ?

Not that I recall or can see from the picture. He said that was a list of the
2003 colors that they could order more of, and he said earlier that Maersk was
no longer open for ordering for them.

Hope that helps...
