(...) I think the very first image above has changed in the mean time! In the original image, there appeared to be a total of four green 2x2 corner slope bricks, if I remember correctly. Fredrik (23 years ago, 6-Jun-01, to lugnet.general)

(...) Yes, you're losing it ;-) (URL) and (URL) are so obviously sand green that it's not even funny. You need to get your monitor checked if it looks like original "Lego green" to you. It looks more like (URL) is a scan that's a touch dark. -- Tom (...) (23 years ago, 7-Jun-01, to lugnet.general)
