I've seen at least 3 different variations on purple:

1) the bright purple as is used for highlight colors in some Technic sets
2) the light pastel purple, the only thing I have in this is some large
bricks from a Belville set (such as a 12x12 Quarter Round Brick, and a 4x12
Brick)
3) the deep purple such as the slope from the current McDonalds Happy Meal
set #5 (I also have one other brick in this color from a Belville set, a 4x6
Brick)

And on the Green theme, I've seen 3 different Greens:

1) the regular basic Green that we all know
2) a Lighter, brighter green that is used in some base plates (like those
from the Halloween buckets)
3) and the really light pastel green
