Yeah - almost there but
still a couple missing that I can think of, so I've modified your
table. You're right about there being different shades of pink. I have
a couple of paradisa sets that have two shades of pink in the same set!

So I now make it like this, though I'm sure someone will think of some • more.
Solid colors:
=============
Red
Blue
Yellow
White
Black
Light Gray
Dark Gray
Green
Brighter Green (as in SW speeder bikes and the 4293 classic value pack
- I think these are the same shade but I'm not certain and can't find
my speeder bikes to check)
Very light paradisa green
Brown
Tan
Teal (Rock Raiders, etc)
Orange
Slightly different orange (the crab in the Naboo Swamp)
Purple
Light Blue (as seen in Insectoids I think?)
Light paradisa pink
Dark paradisa pink
Chrome (like the new technic tires)
Reflective Gold (seen in new Ninja set and coins from pirates etc.)
Reflective Silver

Transparents:
==================
Clear
Smoky (New Star Wars windshields)
Blue Tinted (very subtle)
Trans-Red
Trans-Blue
Trans-Green
Trans-Yellow
Trans Day-Glow Yellow/Green
Trans Day-Glow Orange


One point I'm not sure of - is the McDonalds set purple the same
as the technics competition purple - otherwise there's an extra colour

AFAIK, there are at least two different shades of Tan, you already know the
regular one, and a lighter/brigter version (Look at baseplate/quarter circle
brick in the belville set 5841)

Also there are some different metallic colors that used in
"collect-the-stupid- minerals-and-don't-ask-why" sets (I think a bluish and
a greenish version are exist)

By the way, if you include Duplo/Primo/Scala, I'm sure there would be much
more.

<SNIP> (...) Yeah, if we want the 41 colours then we have to count everything, from the PRIMO sets to the Belville and Scala skin. But hey, the metallic blue in Aquazone, isn´t that just printed on the "armor" piece? Then it´s not a real colour, (...) (25 years ago, 12-Nov-99, to lugnet.general)
