Two light-blue/sand-blue shields appear in Star Wars set 7103.

Note that "light blue" and "sand blue" are different colors.  "Sand" blue is
the color that appears in the earth Mars sets and various other places
recently.  "Light" blue is a purer light blue (not greyish) that appears
most commonly in old Maersk promotional sets.

I assume that the shields here are sand blue.

Actually, "Sand" Blue appears in the *Martian* Life on Mars sets; the Human
sets have Medium/Light Blue (depending on who yo talk to).  Maersk Blue is
either Light Blue or Maersk Blue, depending on who you talk to.  Having seen
all these colors, I'd say that the blue in the Human LOM sets is more true to
light blue than Maersk Blue is.  :)

And I'd agree that the shields are "Sand" blue.

(...) Gaaaah, what? They released 2 different alternate blue colors in the same subtheme? I'll have to compare all the oddities I have again. Does anyone really need 4 different blues? Plus the 2 transparent blues? -- Tony Hafner www.hafhead.com (23 years ago, 4-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle)
