The table top in 3159. It doesn't match any of the purple/magentas that
I remember from other sets. Also seen in this picture:
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=9626
The magenta angled beam is from one of the cyberslam sets.
Like I say, I need to do a similar thing to what you've done because
I've got a bunch of unusual colors. One of the few colors I don't have
is Maersk blue (I'll need to borrow Mike Walsh's Maersk Truck to do my
color scale). I've got a bunch of the Scala sets and most of the
Belville sets.
