The 1986 BAT highlight was available in two colours: Yellow or orange.

Which one is your favourite?

Your poll should have "None of them"...just in case, you never know ( I like yellow, the flashier the better for me, It just pops up better IMO )

Wow, I must say I'm very surprised... The first BAT I got, in 1986, had orange highlights. Since then, I was always looking for that colour. I also saw quite often the comment "Colour variant BAT" when talking about the orange one... followed with a $$$ premium.

I will go to bed smarter tonight!  :wink:

Well, you did ask the question afterall. So always expect the unexpected in these situations. Mark Bellomo also commented that neither color variation is more rare than the other. Half my BATS have the orange and my other half the yellow on them, not that I really cared during my years of collecting. I only became aware of this variation a few years ago but it hasn't changed the fact that I prefer them with the yellow paint. My brother was the one who got the BAT in 86 and it was the yellow highlights variant.

Cool! I'm not alone anymore... we are two  ::) There are as such people preferring Orange as people that never noticed the colour variation.  :o I feel very weird right now...

So, I guess I won't have problem trading my yellow BAT for their orange counterpart...  ;D

I don't think anyone hates the orange version, we just like yellow better.  I wouldn't buy the pink version if they made one....
