familiar with yet ...

The pic we are talking about is the one down the bottom of the third page,
titled 'lookout its a police convoy'. In this, the red bricks are red and the
purple are purple. The purple roof is at the far end of the soccer field.

I remember someone talking about McDonald promo sets that had purple and an
unusual green in them. I think they were vehicles of some sort, so maybe
slope bricks would be a strong possibility.

The LoM sets have mauve elements in them, the colour you get when you mix all
your plasticine together. The 7171 podracer set had purple cones and purple
1 x 1 tiles. There is a Belville set that has a purple 2 x 3 plate.
Unfortunately not enough to build anything of any significance...yet.

(...) Yes, the raunchy Ronnies sets had purple 33% slopes in them. One other set had purple (that I know of), the giant robot set/Technic Yellow Beams pack :) Jame (24 years ago, 21-Feb-01, to lugnet.loc.au)
