I just got new Fall 2002 catalog and on the cover is the new 4728 Escape from Privet Drive set. The Car is quite prominent and might be the light blue (NOT sand blue) from Life on Mars, but it sure looks like the pictures of Marsek Blue I have seen (...)

(...) Hi Mike, Can you scan the new sets on the catalog, and put them on-line? I'd really love to see what is coming this season, but the local retailers have not yet received the September-December catalogs... :-/ Thanks, Pedro (22 years ago, 11-Sep-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.harrypotter)

Your "medium blue" is what everybody I talk to means by light blue. In other words, the light blue that is not sand blue in Life on Mars. (22 years ago, 11-Sep-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.harrypotter)

(...) There certainly is a good deal of confusion on BrickLink about what is medium blue and what is light blue. I called the 2x4 plate in the #7310 LOM Mono Jet "light blue" because it is certainly lighter than blue. Henry Lim's tower of colors (...) (22 years ago, 11-Sep-02, to lugnet.general)

(...) The 'sand blue' is in the Martian LOM sets. Medium blue is in the 'Human' LOM sets. Yes LOM actually used 2 non-standard blue colors. -Mike Petrucelli (22 years ago, 12-Sep-02, to lugnet.general)
