NICE!

i really do miss that white plastic. it looked so much better, very unique.
it's a shame they switched to black.
back in the days white plastic separated the toys from the real stuff for me...
never understood why they did that change

Maybe because the white tended to yellow and gave the shops a hard time to sell 'older' part?

The most sensible explanation I have heard (someone here said it but I can't remember who), beside the fact that almost everybody dyed them black anyway, was that Associated started using cheaper, not-so-virgin nylon, and it probably didn't look quite as good un-dyed.
