I personally like the black/red and two tone green best, followed by the yellow and green.  What are your favorites.

I plan to add this model to my collection, and it will be the red over black one!

The green on green is such a period color I kinda like that in the model.

The white over blue speaks best to its time period, but I don't think I'm a buyer of this one . . . lack of space primarily.

I personally like the green on green one but have a standing order already submitted for the maroon/black one submitted before the green one was announced.

I like all of the colors offered but went nostalgic with the blue/white one because that's the one I recall seeing most years ago.  The green was a very close second.

Around my area the blue and white and also the two tone green ones were often seen. The red and black is eye catching but never or hardly ever seen, I don't remember it. I think as David does that the blue and white is reflecting the time period best. I'll either get the green one or the blue one.

Well I have already pre-ordered the black/red, but I really like the 2-tone green too. Sooooooo
