Robert,

Here is your answer. . .

I too have seen the color "variations" concerning all the players you mentioned plus I know of a variation involving Chance. In EVERY instance the "variation" is caused by the lack of yellow being applied during th printing process.

Sometimes the colors we see, ie. the "green" background of the Tinker, is actully a layer of multiple colors on top of each other. In the Tinker case, it's a layer of blue ink and a layer of yellow ink. Together they appear green. Without the yellow, all you see is the blue, thus the variation.
