I noticed on Mike's thread about his DK jr, that his CPO has a slightly different color scheme than the one on the cabinet I just purchased.
Mike's is the same as the 2nd one that I looked @, but didn't purchase.

On mine, the "Donkey Kong Junior" text above the joystick is filled orange, and Mario's hat & Overalls are red while his shirt is yellow. On Mike's, they all appear white, or very, very light.

What is/was the difference? Is mine a mis-colored reproduction? Just wondering

Yours is correct. Mike's is probably just a very sunbleached original. I have an original sitting right here and it meets your description to a T, as do reproductions I've seen.
 
I'm not seeing the difference you're talking about:

that one looks just like the picture you posted in terms of where the colors are.


Oops... Sorry for the confusion. I meant in Mike's DK jr. Restoration thread right here.


The funny thing about it being "very sun-faded" though, is that the one I looked at buying was the same (maybe not exact, but DAMN close) color as the "faded" one.
