Tron TOMY Light Cycles origins Questions.. help please

on Saturday, September, 24, 2011 8:45 PM
So I have seen allot of Tron LIght cycles online for sale. Does anyone know the original colors of the Tomy Light cycles?....
I know one is yellow but I have bought 2 Tomy so called Red light cycles on ebay and they are really orange when compared to the Neca red cycles.

I was happily surprised to find they were orange which is Tron's light cycle color and red is Rams, yellow Flynn. The orange is a deep orange and may appear red but when next to the red light cycle it is apparently orange. Many sellers on ebay are listing these orange cycles as the color red by mistake.

here is a link that shows the orange Tomy cycle http://trontoy.com/1981-original-tron-light-cycle-lot-of-3-figures-tomy/

I am thinking the original Tomy light cycles were Yellow and Orange and when Neca did the 20th anniversary retro light cycles they finished off all the colors by making red and blue to complete the set. Am I right in assuming this? I really would like to have a red Tomy light cycle to have a full vintage set but not sure that is even possible.

Just curious. Now I have an extra yellow and orange light cycle. Not sure if I will resell them or get them autographed and sell them.

thanks for any info or such. order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill

When I look at the Neca and Tomy Red light cycles side by side they definitely look different colors. I am thinking it was meant to be orange by Tomy. Looking at the movie now and freeze framed on the light cycles when they escape the grid and finally get out of the light cycles and you can clearly see the red and orange next to each other and they are very close to the orange of the Tomy light cycle.

Now that i think of it, it makes sense that they would make an orange and yellow light cycle for Flynn and Tron. and not do the red for Ram.
