The original 405's are indeed "brick" in color. You can detect this color when you see the closeup of Indy's boot in the truck chase in Raiders. The reddish coloration shows through the dust. I understand that they're newer version of 405's are a bit browner than the brick version of past issues. Good deal on the purchase, my friend. That's the best I've heard to date. Regards.
