Don't think so... without the sets in front of me I can't really estimate,
but something like http://www.suave.net/~dave/colors.html
The dino color as I recall was more of a brown brick, kinda like a dark tan,
with a hint of red. Also a great brick color. But this one is more of a
light, semi-faded red. At any rate, I've got most of the dino island stuff
and I don't think I've seen this new color before yet....

(...) Is it the same color as some of the dinosaurs in the Adventurers line? I was thinking the same thing about that color, perfect for bricks. Jonathan (26 years ago, 22-Nov-00, to lugnet.general)
