Thanks for the info, luckily I was able to get four trans yellow panels and
six solid yellow hoses on the 'net, so I can complete them either way.
I must admit I thought the pieces on the Invader were probably wrong and I

still inconclusive I'll just go with whichever look better, but I'd like to
know the correct ones, or if there were two different releases.
I thought the white elements in 1875 Meteor Monitor were a bit strange
too... perhaps it's the missing link between Blacktron I and Blacktron II
who did use white elements!
