I received a Knight Bus on Friday (a traditional 10th anniversary present, I believe), and sure enough it contained two shades of blurple. Which is fine - blurple has a long way to go to match the number of shades of blite, blellow, blue (that one doesn’t work, does it?), bley, or bled in my collection.

However, there was a quality problem with the set... one of the axles is slightly distorted, and as a result one wheel doesn’t turn freely.

I shall be calling the help line shortly. ;-)
