Here are the lids that were available on the last run of
tubes, just before the HEXATUBE replaced our favourite tubes and
lids. There were five new colours;
1) Pink (like the smartian pink lids)
2) Bright red
3) Metallic Blue
4) Pea Green
5) Gold.
A real headache for lid collectors who wanted an alphabet in
each colour! But it was a welcome change from the orange lids that
had been the only colour of lid for quite a
while. The orange lids were still available, and white lids also
made an appearance. This was not official and I think it was just Nestle trying
to get rid of a load of spare white lids from their Christmas tubes.
There was also an internet offer in relation to these final
edition lids. Click here to see it.
