Eggshell.
Seriously though, I do not recall it being cream colored, it was white. |

it's cream colored now due to the plastic aging. It's a vanilla jet.

I'm having the same issues with the CLAW, I took the labels off and it's a bit lighter underneath them than the rest, but on the inside it's not white either... so I can't remember if it was originally white or really light grey.

I asked this question a while ago, the answer is: there's 2 versions! the majority came in an eggshell colour, it actually looks "pre-yellowed" and also a white version! I don't know the origin of the white one but I know the part numbers inside the shell are different! It's worth noting that it's pretty hard to find the eggshell in it's original state, normally they've yellowed even more which makes it even worse, if you lift the canopy you may notice a slight change inside the cockpit rim. In europe we had an Arctic blast that was pure white like the snowcat, the US one I believe was a shade darker.

Mine was a bit "off-white" like eggshell. It wasn't as white as the Snow Cat but it wasn't a shade of light gray like the CLAW, Shark etc either.
Quote:
Gray stuff includes: Skystriker, SNAKE, CLAW, Polar Bear, Shark, Flight Pod, Tactical Battle Platform, and the list goes on. Place any of these in mint condition next to a mint Snow Cat and the difference is very obvious. If your CLAW is lighter under the stickers though, then it has discolored a tiny bit most likely. I have never heard of stickers lightening plastic. |
