I'm not sure how long they've been using it's mold but bricklink lists
'plate 8x8' in at least nine different colors:
Dark Purple
Light Green
Light Violet
Purple
Sand Green
Swamp Green
Violet
White
Trans-Light Blue
It'd be interesting to see how far back it actually goes, I seem to recall
at least one 8x8 plate in my collection at one stage, but don't know what
color it was. I reckon a few of the above colors might belong to the LoM
series, since they definitely have Light Green colors in them.
