Thanks.  I agree on the color.  I just don't have any of that piece in trans
yellow or trans green (are they even made in that color?).  I did consider a

which I do have in trans yellow, but the shape didn't fit right.

I will ignore the clone bits for the sake of diplomacy.  :)

Thanks.  I was actually pretty bummed when I originally got these.  I bid on an
e-bay auction of "Lego vehicles" in part because one of the vehicles in the

actually a clone brand (plus one of the other vehicles was glued) :( .  Not my
happiest e-bay experience.  But, oh well.  I'm not such a purist that I threw
them out, so they found a home here.
