Is this Transparent Neon Orange? This color was retired(?) at the end of 2021,
but the official renders for this part sure look like they use this color. Rebrickable
has the following note: “Bricklink and Brickowl inventory this as Trans-Orange
even though the part is Trans-Neon Orange.”

Two of these renders come directly from LEGO. This part is probably 47 marbled
with Transparent Brown. Most parts in this color appear slightly redder than
Transparent Orange parts in LEGO renders. The second render is an outline render.
That orange color is too red to be Transparent Orange.

The other photo is from a BrickOwl user. The part definitely looks like 47 here.

This part is included in the newest Harry Potter Gringotts Wizarding Bank set,
which would make this color current again.

I have two of the Monkie Kid sets that contain this part, so I went and checked
them out. The color of the part is somewhat muted due to the Trans-Brown marbling,
but it is definitely Trans-Neon Orange mixed with it. I will get that fixed pronto.
