  Does anyone own any early copies of sets from the Kingdoms subtheme? I’m putting
some of mine back together and I can’t tell whether most of my helmets and swords
are new or old PDG. Does anyone have any helpful comparison photos? I’ve only
been able to confirm some horse armor pieces, but this color displays a ton of
variation, so they don’t match other parts very well.

Is the left spear the older color? It’s slightly greener.

The left spear looks like the old color to me.

The only part I know I have in both color is 3848. Old PDG seems generally slightly
greener/brownish, but of course inconsistent. New PDG in my experience is a very
consistent, neutral grey. In this piece in particular, I find the older one to
have a more grainy texture, but I'm not sure that's something consistent
to go on. It's hard to get good lighting to show the difference though :c

Looks like old Pearl Dark Gray halberds do not have the part number or LEGO logo
molded ANYWHERE.

The difference between old and new Pearl Dark Gray is as wide as the difference
between common Pearl Light Gray and Flat Silver. This color definitely deserves
to be added here.

If new/old dark red isn't differentiated, there's no reason to do so
for this.

They are two completely different colors.
