Just when I thought the guy picking the colors was back on his meds, he falls off the wagon again. Seriously, why didn't they bother to take a few seconds and "read the room." I'm surprised some of these issues weren't a total financial failure. Out of all the colors to chose from and at the market these were aimed ... many of these model color choices are a total "fail" in my view. Those harsh words aside, I still enjoy seeing these sets all together in group photos. But seriously, who sits down and looks at color decks and says: "I like this almost not there Lavender combined with this oh so delicate verdant mint?"

Perhaps they bought up job lots of the colours no-one else wanted!

The fact that no one else wanted that paint should have been the first big red flag! It's a lot of work to produce an entire series of these things in a quantity. Colors and logos are super important decisions that can mean the difference of having a "winner" or dusty boxes sitting of models sitting in the corner.
