i just opened the 25th rattler last nite that has been sitting in my closet since they frst came out way back when. opened the conquest to. but the first thing i notcied about it is that it is purple. are they all purple? when put next to my 84 rattler it is very purple. it is closer to the mamba color than rattler blue. just wondering. and the decals do suck. i attached pics, didnt want to get a "this thread is worthless without pics" but the pics really dont do the purple justice but u can tell its purple in the one without the flash

yes, this was quickly spotted when they came out. it is an odd shade/color choice.

I don't keep my new one near my old one, so I don't notice the color much anymore.

Pretend it's just an Episode from Season 1 of the cartoon. Sunbow was notorious for color mismatches...and some unpainted cells even. |

It is that weird blue/purple color. I used to have a shirt that color. Half the people said it was blue, the other half purple.
