Eduard formation lights question?

Hi All,

I just received the Eduard 1/32 F-15 formation lights photo etch (#32533) from an online dealer and they are Tan in color.

They look nothing like the Eduard representation of this item which is a lemon yellow.

Does anyone have experience with these and are they indeed supposed to be yellow?

The item I have doesn’t look right.

Best to do an online photo search of the a/c in question.

‘Slime lights’ are indeed a yellow color when illuminated, but in daylight they usually appear a sort of washed-out linen color…so a very pale tan wouldn’t be out of order. Any darker than that, and I’d touch them up with a bit of paint.

This is what I ordered. What I got didn’t look anything like this.

I want them to look like this as if they are on (yellow like the photo here).

Painting the set I got, would defeat spending the money to buy them to not have to paint them.

This is how they look in daylight when they are not powered up
