Hey, you could always take the color in question down to your local hardware or paint store and ask them to stick it into their computerized color matcher, that would be about as accurate as you can get using today's technology!!

How would I go about getting a job at the Lego company? Could I just send them a few DAT files or would I need actual Photos of sets I built? Also where would I send such information? (26 years ago, 1-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego)

I bought the throwbot Scuba and it has an odd error on the printing on the back. Just goto (URL) take a look at it. I have these questions- 1. Is it printed on all Scuba's? 2.
