I have a half cylinder 6218 in front of me. It looks exactly like the • partsref

between these ?

The one I have is in brown, and came from <set:6617> Tough Truck Rally.

Hmm, interesting.  My half-cylinders from the Star Wars Y-Wing are also
6218's.

I wonder if this is a situation where there are two different molds for
opaque and transparent pieces.  Does anyone have some transparent pieces to
check?  I can check tonight, if no one gets to it earlier.

I was able to lay my hands on 5 ClrDkBlue parts and all are marked 6259. And
the grey ones on my Y-wing are 6218. IIRC the UFO quarter saucers used
different mould numbers for the clear and opaque versions of the same part.
Maybe there is a different process/temperature/specification needed for clear
part moulds??

Chris

Is it safe to say that the image that we have for 6259 is identical (for our
purposes) to the part moulded as 6218 ?
