If it was a coloured box from S@H, perhaps that was a sign that the set was
intended for retail distribution in the longer term.

A Sydneysider showed me the coloured Sopwith Camel box he received from S@H
recently and the B&W box he had previously received, I speculated that it would
mean a potential retail release at the time.
The Red Baron from S@H was in a coloured box as well, wonder why Kmart didn't
sell both as bookends.

Then Ross posted that he spotted one in a Melbourne Kmart.

Which sets currently only available from S@H are in black-n-white boxes?

I have seen an auction for a Rebel Blockade Runner with a coloured box, but
maybe it was bought at retail in the US.
Maybe we should ask the USians if the Statue of Liberty retail box was in
colour ?

(...) My S@H Statue of Liberty was in a coloured box, as I still have that box. So maybe it never come out in a black-n-white box. Kerry (22 years ago, 31-Oct-02, to lugnet.loc.au)
