I guess I missed them also (either that or the seller had low feedback or was
in Europe).

Er, not quite. 6376 and 725 have straight curved top windows. 6416 has curved
(corner) curved top windows. Interestingly, both 6376 and 725 also have two
straight short curved top windows. Of course you can mesh a 6416 with a 6376
and get a nice building. I plan to make a nice big cafe. There is a DACTA set
(forget the number) which also has these.
A bunch of sets have the short straight window in clear.
6396 has the large straight wall in trans light blue (2 of them). I'm not sure
if any other sets have it in trans light blue.
There aren't any corners that I know if in a color other than clear.

I sure would love to see a return of sets like that.
