One of the larger (I think) is on Rt. 9.
We found lime green spandex at a JoAnne's here in CT which we used on the prototype Gus Balls, they also had a navy blue which was a little dark for the blue color needed.

Correct colors should be purple and orange for moon rocks, blue and orange for empty cells, and green and purple for super cells.

Green is a lime green color, purple is probably a dark lavender (Viking's uniform purple), blue is a medium hue like royal blue, and orange is well orange (dare I say Gus Orange!)
