(and I'm still sticking with Teal for the
torquoise green)

Teal and Turquiose are two different colors.  Teal appeared in
Cyberslam/Competition and Rock Raiders.  Turquiose has appeared in ... the
Mindstorms Droid Developer Kit (R2D2).  I'm sure both colors have turned up
in other sets/lines, but that's all that springs to mind.

The teal/turquiose issue confused me while entering parts on my brickbay shop.

I thought the pieces found in cyberslam were teal, yet while searcing brickbay,
everybody has them listed under turquiose. (OK, not everybody, there is one
piece correctly listed under teal - way to go Kevin!)So, I listed my pieces as
turquiose.

I will change those before I open - tomorrow ;-)

I think I know why that mistake was made. On the brickbay page where you choose
what color, there is a sample color next to the names and on that page
turquiose, rather than teal, more closely resembles the actual color of the
cyber slam pieces. If looking at the parts ref colored images page, it is
obvious that the correct color for cyber slam pieces is teal.

Turquiose is bluer, teal is greener.
