Box says "Copyright 1986 Matchbox International Ltd. Distributed by Revell AG." Paint nos are given in Revell Paint nos and RALs., hence the rather odd descriptions for Slate Grey and Dark Slate Grey, but they did slip up with the undersurfaces where they haven't changed Humbrol 90 to its equivalent but have substituted Revell 90 (silver). The diagram clearly spells out Silver. Just paint it Humbrol 90 like everyone else.
