It is used for the Hydronauts' "armor" It is a very cool color. You can also
add to the reflective list matallic green. I'm pretty sure the crystals in • the
meteors in the Space Ports sets are this color.

Hmmm - looked in the catalogue but I still can't see anything in the
pictures that looks like a new type of blue.  Sorry - I must be being
particularly blind. I'm quite curious about this.
Could you pick out a set number and tell me whereabouts to look in that
set for the cobalt metallic blue?

Looking at the catalogue, the spaceport crystals certainly look green
to me. I may have to buy a set so I can see whether it really is <g>

Even ignoring the spaceport sets - it does appear that there ARE 4 shades
of green going around. Paul Davidson pointed out this link
http://www.auczilla.com/lego/x/4.html
which lists most of the colours. In this link Todd mentions two shades of
green used
in Paradisa.  I checked and it's true! My Poolside Paradisa baseplate, for
example, is a very light pastel green, whereas the plates in my 6547 Funfair
are a brighter, shinier, pastel green. Add this to the new brightish green
that's
just started to appear and the traditional dark green...
