Clikits260 is listed in the catalog as “Lavender”. The color this corresponds
to wasn’t around in 2004, but the envelope looks more like Clikits Lavender,
or LEGO’s “218 Reddish Lilac” which was around in the Clikits era. My guess is
that this set was inventoried before Clikits Lavender was added to the Bricklink
color reference list. Perhaps Axaday can verify this? Granted, he also inventoried
the set, and he knows more about Clikits than most Bricklink sellers.

Parts 44715 and 42026 in set 7439 should be changed to Flat Dark Gold. Their
photos are definitely this color and not Dark Tan. Ebay listings of this set
allow for a much clearer view of these parts and they are without a doubt Flat
Dark Gold.

It isn't a very good match for Clikits Lavender, but that is now probably
the closest thing.

The envelop above was set to a color of (Not Applicable) since it is not Lavender
or Clikits Lavender.

These parts have been updated in the catalog and the inventory of 7439.
