    WGSH Carrying Case Variations?

    I know this topic has been touched on in other threads in the past, but there doesn't seem to have been a deep dive anywhere yet.

    Inspired to look into them again after picking up a blue case locally my curiosity is piqued.

    Assembling info from across the forum I'm aware of these varying aspect to the case:

    Main/outer vinyl- Black, Blue, Brown
    Inner vinyl - White, Red
    Handle type - hard plastic w/ metal hinges, softer strap style (see enterprise playset handle) w/o hinges.

    Do we have any idea how many of the possible combos might actually exist?

    It would be rad if anyone could share pics of the variations they own in the hopes that we might come to some consensus.

    I'll dig mine out, dust them off, and update this post w/ pics.

    Update:

    Black/White/Strap


    Blue/White/Hinge


    Up close comparison of vinyl texture differences blue vs Black


    Are all black cases textured? Are all blue cases smooth?

      I don't think I've ever seen a brown one.

        the funky lighting is kind of hiding the tape stain on the blue one here.

          I've seen one or two pics online of the brown (not confident that it wasn't the same case in different pics) and I think THIS ONE might have been brown.
