colours - ALL the Thundercat colours? Empty ALL the Thundercat colours?

Looking for some help/ advice/ knowledge.
I decided to make up a poster/ image of all the official Thundercat colours and started to do a trawl and make up an image (I know too much time on my hands).
The pic shown has not yet been tidied up or finalised however can you check to see if there are any colour combinations which I have missed/ got wrong etc? Or if you have such an item/ old advert/ sales brochure etc any chance of a look? Trying to avoid using paintshop to change colours.

Cheers Billy

Are you just looking for "offical" colours (inc overseas variants), or after market (professional) paint jobbies too ?

Well how about starting with official schemes first, if people can identify them as such?

Thought you were going to say bright green there! Any chance you can find me a "studio" style shot i.e. like the others on the top image?
I have had a quick trawl and can't find one so far.

I think you are confused sir!

They obviously started with the best and then said "Oh... and you can also get them like this but there isn't much demand" rofl

The picture I had posted of the Black/Gun with Red lettering. An European colour scheme which wasn't released in the UK. Surprisingly very few made it here, I've only seen two in the flesh, so to speak, - the one I owned and Weasleys', seems to be a popular colour in Germany.

I've gone from rare to as common as chips in bike colours Very Happy

I always though mine was non original as the only one's I'd seen had the YZF ghosting through the front fairing in big letters and mine didn't. I suspected that it had at some point attracted some unwanted attention from the road and not been replaced so I'm happy to see mine is just a later design and original Very Happy

Why is mine and the one next to it facing the other way??

Is it because they leaders and are just waiting for the others to follow??

Are they a bit slow??

(Or have they just been bullied and shunned from the pack?) [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
