what is the secondary color on the box art suppose to be?

I have the original box and even i cannot tell the intended color on the body.
the RED is easy... and the windows are blacked out, the secondary color is either gold, bronze, black, or some kind of pearl, depending on how your eyes view the coloring.

Lucky you bought this up, i also have the box and am color blind i thought the secondary color was black, you are reffering to the rear off the car arn't you. I Have a new body and was about to paint it red and black now im confused lol.

Yep it is not black.

It's a dark metallic copper/bronze.

Jamie Here are the photos off the tomy box you asked for.







I don't no if you can see on the box it still has the original price on it $38000 yen, which puts it at roughly $380 Australian which is pretty pricey for the early 90's

Hi DemZ,

Thanks for posting the pics. As suspected I am missing the orange/red box sections. Interesting to see what I should have but don't. I guess I cant have everything, happy enough to just have the box.

I was sorting out some bits in my loft and found a December 1991 copy of Radio Race Car magazine. A couple of places have the Tomy Intruder listed at £169.99 which seems slightly cheaper than competitors, a Lazer ZX-R is listed for £219.95 a Procat is £176.95.

My TBG body arrived today and was wondering if anyone is any closer to working out the exact color off the rear off the body, to Me it looks like a dark purple but i am color blind lol.
