Comments:

The Sand Crab became the Dune Daddy in 1973 and was released again in the Flying Colors. Oddly, the light green color
is designated in Mattel documentation as the "alternate color" but it is much more common than the orange version.
Neither is particularly rare, although white interiors are more scarce than the black interior.
