WE Aqua Blue vs. AE Forget Me Not color comparison

[JorgeAmely]

Hello guys/gals:

I recently finished work on an AE80 in the color "Forget Me Not" which seems almost identical to WE's Aqua Blue. I took a picture of both sets side-by-side and wanted to share it the group. This set came from a farm in Idaho, USA. However, the card is from a phone from North Carolina.

I have more photos in this album:

very nice jorge. AE must've looked in the 64 box of crayolas for their name.

It wasn't bad enough to have to figure out the difference between Turquiose, and Aqua, now we have "Forget me Not", and what, "Whatchamacallit"" ?

They really called it Forget Me Not?

McHeath:

Check out color code #30 from this website:

Technically, it is Blue (Forget Me Not). Some models could have been called Blue, some models Forget Me Not. Go figure 

[Dan/Panther]

The only problem is , if you list something and say the color is "Forget Me Not". That really doesn't tell you much. Aqua, or Turquoise, at least you have an idea.

I like AE80s a lot. I am still looking for a nice Yellow (or Autumn Gold or Lemonade as documented at Paul's site). There is also a light gray (very similar to WE's #61 color code), but that one is probably as rare as moon dust on earth.

Matt;
I don't think Baby Poop Yellow would go over very well.

Unless it is soft plastic. 

[Dan/Panther]

It would be very soft.
