Better to just answer it so we can move on. :pok:

If you insist .....the two I know of for sure are:

LM PST:  the US version had knurled screws, the Japanese version had peened rivets.

LM Squirt:  Most had peened rivets, but a small number were made with torx screws (this variant was popular with modders)

What different colour scales has LM definitely made Squirts in ?

And for extra bonus points:

What other colour scales could they have made if they had wanted to ?   (based on the colours of other LMs with coloured scales that they have made in the past).

You started very well, but then ran out of steam when the going got tough. 
Big Hint:  They actually made Squirts in 8 colours that I know of (admittedly some were made in small numbers).

Keep trying everyone   :tu:

Blue, red, grey, black, pink, lighter blue, and I think I have seen a yellow and a green one posted in a thread somewhere in here.
They could also have colors of the Juice line, like silver, purple, and orange.
Maybe also BO, tan, and camo. :drool:

 :facepalm:
It turns out that's a hard one. Let's just leave the bonus aside and go for the answer.

We are counting all models, new and old, right?
I know for a fact that we have:

1. Black
2. Blue
3. Red
4. Grey
5. Pink

Also, I remember a thread where someone posted two colors you don't usually see for a Squirt. I am positive one was green. Could the other one have been the KF4's solar yellow? It's been a long time, and I have no idea how to find the thread.
So assuming those are correct, we are up to seven.  :think:

Does the new Squirt PS4 come in Burgundy? :shrug:

Assuming they had them handy, they probably had Squirts in the old Juice colors.

1. Black
2. Blue
3. Red
4. Grey
5. Pink
6. Yellow
7. Purple
8. Orange

Correct !!!!  we have a winner - your turn now  :D    :woohoo:

There were two different blues (but very close to each other), and yes, the later PS4s also came in Burgundy, but I still classed that as a Red for the purposes of this trivia quiz.

I have never seen a green Squirt (not even a photo), but LM certainly had the ability to make them if they had wanted to, as they definitely did make some Green Juices ( I have one).  Other colours they could have made if they chose to were Green Camo, Brown Camo, Silver, Light Grey, Dark Grey (almost Black), and Translucent ! (see through) Yellow (only 1 of these known, possibly part of a salesman's kit).

I don't recall ever seeing photos of a BO Juice, but LM could have made one if they wanted to.

Great job RP :woohoo: I figured there were probably some color options that were made in special editions or small batches but I figured better to give it a shot than let the thread die again :D Great question, Greg :salute: :like:

Tell us more (please ?)

I can't remember ever seeing a factory made Squirt or Juice with white scales (not saying they didn't, all sorts of finishes are possible on the scales)

Is that a genuine Juice as made by the LM factory ? 
I can't see the usual LM USA/Tool cast into the plier head.

I know that some TV shows and Film makers have modified some MTs in various ways for their shows, but they aren't a genuine factory article.

Also some manufacturer in China was making some mini & maxi Juice-a-likes (many with Protocol branding on the scales, and the usual "Stainless CR2" markings on the pliers)

I'm pretty sure that white one is a clone.
