What are your favorite 4-8 colors from the cheap toy series in the past?
Would you want a new series to match the old colors or have completely new ones?
As the immortal Rusvan has cataloged all of the colors I'll use his labels:
My thanks to Rusvan, The Watcher, and Graffiti30b for their excellent pics.

I prefer all mini-figures to be in lime green and magenta.

I'm digging that color wheel layout.

Thanks guys! So far there has been overwhelming support for the Novo colors and Neon colors and Canadian Aqua. I'll do my best to match these colors and I'll experiment with a few others as well once the dyes come in. I'll post pics then!

hey guys, new'ish to the lrg forum. i believe i signed up a long time ago, but never posted. i was one of the folks that found the magenta colored cheap toys, and i can assure everybody they weren't fakes as some folks thought at the time, and probably a few people still think.

I am not too well-versed in CT colors, but I think my favorites are neon red and neon yellow, although I don't have any in neon yellow yet. Hopefully I can find a decent deal on one of those at some point.

I have two different greens that I am trying to identify based on that color wheel. They are VERY slightly different (see pic below). Maybe lime green and light green? Or lime green and pea green? Does anyone know? I'm not sure how well the photo shows the difference.

The Megan appears to be Pea and the Petey Lime. In hand lime and pea green figures are only slightly different shades of green and could be confused as the same color at a glance.

Thanks, that's what I suspected. Even though it's slight there's definitely a difference there. Even more so when I look at them side by side here than in the photo.

Reproductions are neat, but a nice bright original Neon Yellow CT is the Posted Image It's hard for me to decide whether I like Neon Yellow or Novo Yellow better.

The Petey is definitely Lime Green. I'd say the Megan is Pea Green.

My vote goes to Salmon and or Orange. Those colors can only truely be appreciated in hand!

1. UK Aqua or magic mint!

3. Cinnamon
4. Novo yellow and blue

I also love UK blue. I think in this case the material really makes the colour pop
