Hi All

diffrent red,redishpink and day-glow pink Color Variants.













the lightpink with Nr 8 is very rare.

Is the pink colour similar to the MB74 bus?

Hello Steve

Yes I would agree that it is the same color as the Daimler Bus.Make tomorrow a comparison photo.

What kind of value/price should I put on a light pink one? I've just picked up one which is a lot lighter than the usual red, but will have to check whether it's as light as the one in the picture.

Thanks
Stephen

These pinks can be quite deceiving, I checked mine and I've got one that seems to fall between the light and dark pink

Stephen, please try and post a few pictures of your 'Light Pink' model including a picture of the baseplate.

Thanks,

Road dragsters. Is this light enough to be considered "light pink"?

Hello Stephen, from that single picture and comparing it with the earlier pictures posted here, it does not look like a 'Pink' or 'Light Pink' version to me, I would sit on it for a while until you can obtain a few more examples of this model and then compare them side by side to see if it is a lighter shade. As you regularly buy new stock for your toy fair table, it should not be too long before you have more examples.

Take care Stephen, I might be at the up-coming Slough toy fair, so may see you then.

Hi Stephen, I've just put the photos together here, it's a bit of a crude comparison but as Ghosty said, compaing them with others in the hand should answer the question.

I think you're right. I would now class it as dark pink/very light red, as it is quite a bit lighter than the standard red. Thanks for all the comments.
