Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 7512  Name: Trendy Totes Sky Blue
* 
7512-1 (Inv) Trendy Totes Sky Blue
94 Parts, 2003
Sets: Clikits

* Change 4 Part {Aqua to Trans-Very Lt Blue} clikits057 Clikits Flexy Film, Strip 2 x 14 with Rounded Ends and 5 Holes

Comments from Submitter:
I am encountering this color in other sets as I go through them. Aqua wasn't an AWFUL color for it, but it is transparent and there is no trans-aqua. Additionally, there is another transparent flexy film that is a much better match for aqua.

The pics show this film with another the same color and adjacent with trans-very
light blue plastic pieces. Also trans-light for reference. The other pic shows
this film with another film that is also currently "aqua" that is a much better
match for aqua.

Yeah, I bought one of those "aqua" strips from you and was going to get around
to talking about it with you. Have you tried placing it next to the Clikits Trans-Medium
Blue parts that aren't really Trans-Medium Blue but a yet-to-be-added color?
I would be curious to see that image before moving ahead with this.

Cheers,
Randy

It looks awful. I wish you had never asked me to do it or I had refused.

Yeah, that does look bad. I need to go scrub my eyes.



How does the thin portion of a Trans-Light Blue icon part compare to the color
of this strip? My wife took my strip to work, so I can't do it myself right
now. If you can, take a pic holding both up towards a light source like I showed
you for the Trans-Dark Pink ones. Remember, the Trans-Dark Pink flexy films were
much lighter looking when compared to Trans-Dark Pink icon parts until I held
them to the light looking at similar thicknesses. This may be a similar case
as the strip doesn't quite look like Trans-Very Light Blue.

Cheers,
Randy

I was called in to work for a couple of hours to do something super important.
I can check it this evening or tomorrow.

Clogged toilets can be a "bummer".

Oops. I forgot that I had this set, so I took a look at the flower flexies.

I am torn on what to do about these bluish-green parts, but I think we should
settle for Trans-Very Light Blue like you have suggested. These flexy films are
milkier than some of the other flexies I bought from you which makes the color
harder to nail down since they do not transmit light through them easily. If
the milky layer wasn't on it, it may look closer to Trans-Light Blue, but
as is looks closer to Trans-Very Light Blue for simplicity.

I will approve your requests for these parts.

Cheers,
Randy
