Even with everybody else saying the opposite, I will put my faith in Sir Wolf's opinion. Even if he's wrong, there has to be a very good reason that I want to hear!  :lol:

So the consensus is that the Pottery house was an "orange" tint of yellow and the add-on house was a "butter" tint of yellow?

I'd love to see photos if Wolf Knight or anyone else would like to post them.

Thanks!

Clear as water.
Left pottery, right add-on.

The upper one is more orange and has the white door and window so that's the pottery  ;D

Maybe I am colourblind  ::) but I see the upper one, which is indeed from my old pottery house, as a brighter shade of yellow, not an orange one. But I do find it interesting that yours is indeed more orange, Gaston :eh?: Could it be that the original colour changed for some reason back in the early days due to first ans second edition production lines?  ??? ??? ???

mmm no idea... btw mine is from the 80's too but produce by Antex, that could be one thing. But if you look in playmodb the pottery looks kinda orange too.
It's yours Lyra?

I think these photos prove that the potter's house and the add-on house were of two different shades of yellow.

*sigh*

One more variation to collect...

 :D

Both are packed away right now, but I can confirm  they are the same yellow color.

Did you mean to say they are not the same, Panos? Sorry, I'm just confused, it seemed you said they were the same and then said they were not.

The picture revealed the truth... convince yourself.
