Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 8728  Name: Toa Hahli
* 
8728-1 (Inv) Toa Hahli
46 Parts, 2006
Sets: BIONICLE: Toa Inika

* Change 4 Part {Trans-Neon Green to Trans-Light Green} 54821 Ball, Bionicle Zamor Sphere

Comments from Submitter:
Hahli Inika, like Jaller, contains 4 Zamor spheres of a color varying between Trans-Light Green and a darker Trans-Bright Green. It is very distinct from the Trans-Neon Green listed, which was included in other sets. My original copy, from a sealed set in 2006, included these.

It is not officially Transparent Light Green. This weird color is likely a result
of mixing two colors.

It's not official perhaps, but the color is not Trans-Neon Green and listing
as such is incorrect. It is not intended to be Trans-Neon Green, as these two
sets differ specifically from all other sets that utilize Trans-Neon Green coloration.

It is; this part used 28 Dark Green (Green) mixed with either 40 Transparent
(Trans-Clear) or 20 Nature (Milky White)*. The same combination was also used
for the 2010 Hero Factory sets. The 2006 release is 4297034, the 2010 release
is 4583979. Both are "6.Multikombination" in LEGO's database.

*While it appears related to the material, ultimately what is defined as Transparent
or Nature seems rather arbitrary, so there's really no way to know what LEGO
would have referred to it as. They're both effectively just colorless plastic.

Trans-Light Green is a much more accurate description than Trans-Neon Green.
The images listed for the part show the one used in these sets as "Light
Green", where as the image for "Trans-Neon Green" depicts a different
part, 4296080. The same can be said about store listings, if you buy a TNG one
you're 99% guaranteed to get 4296080 because it actually looks yellowish
green like TNG. If you want the correct part, you should buy a Light Green or
Trans-Light Green one.

Nevertheless, I've been told a Zamor project is underway: https://www.bricklink.com/messageThread.asp?ID=351831

A Zamor sphere project has long been in the pipeline of things to do, but it
will take some research and a lot of changes involving more sets that these.

Therefore these requests will neither be accepted or rejected at this point.
Please don't add more. We will get to this project eventually, but there
are more important projects to focus on at this time.

My apologies, I was unaware. Thanks for letting me know!
