| | Hi,
I'm going through some old Lego Star Wars Lego sets.
At the moment I'm looking at 10188 Death Star.
I didn't even open all the boxes on this set and all parts or original.
See the 2 x images below:
The image on the left is slightly less 'blueish' then the one on the
right.
Flipped over (the less blueish one is now on the right), the underside is a lot
more glossy where as the (IMO) true light blueish grey is a more matt finish
on the underside.
There are about 8 of each in this set and all of the left have one shade, all
of the other have the slightly different shade.
I think I'm seeing this in other Star Wars sets from around the same too
where the greys are ever so slightly different.
Why is this? Have I somehow mixed pieces up - which would be difficult seeing
as I don't have those lager grey pieces anywhere else?
Appreciate some advice!

I added this disclaimer to my terms and conditions page.
"Some parts, especially Dark Red, Pearl Gold and Light Bluish Gray (amongst
others), have been manufactured in various shades. Please be aware that these
shades are not differentiated in my listings and that you may get parts with
different shades."
Feel free to use this or something similar. Any suggestions for better wording
are appreciated.

Thanks @everyone, nice to know it is an actual 'thing' and not me questioning
my memory!
