(...) Well, it certainly wasn't ever blue. I'd wonder if it was more trans-blue or trans-lt-blue. Being the latter, perhaps my 6377 entry is off, too.

Tell me I'm not seeing things. . . I have in my hand a roughly 3 x 4 x 1 LtTrBlue windscreen from set 6392. I can quite clearly read the number as 4866.

The pieces (there were 4 of them) can best be described as a grey 2x4 technic brick. - Same size as a 2x4 brick. - 3 holes through the (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.db.brictionary)
