Brilliant mod. My only suggestions are to post a MoC on rebrickable with parts list and maybe a link on SW thread. People there will likely never come here and rebrickable would get a lot more attention to your fantastic mod/ MoC.

Box art can vary dramatically because you can play with photo settings. These videos look to be taken in same location under similar light; however, I do agree to be 100% sure it needs to be verified with the actual set. That being said, I am not willing to eat my own face if I am wrong, but I am 99.99% sure it is medium blue. -

For anyone who still believes it is not medium blue. I tried to capture in similar circumstances. The left side is a capture of the yacht and right side is rally car. -

Yep. Still looks medium blue to me. -

# of pieces is not only factor for price. 42077 is more expensive in other countries as well. It is not uncommon for a H1 set not to be released in NA. -

No one is arguing, and what is the point of a forum if we don't discuss what is of interest to some people? If you don't care about the colour, you can ignore those post as others ignore other posts of little interest. -

I looked at several official box art images of dark azure and medium blue sets and until someone has it in hand there is no way to know for sure. For example when I look at box art for 42037 the medium blue "looks" like dark azure. I personally was convinced it was medium blue when they released some images in more natural light but those images seem to be gone now. Pics are showing a piece of 42037 which we know for sure is medium blue inside different sets. -

I disagree. Even the red pin with bush is just as dark as the other reds. -

The pictures which have been removed were medium blue for sure. This is why I believe the images above make the 42077 "look" like dark azure when in fact it is the photo editing they have done. Look how dark the red's are in the 42077 compared to 42070. -

Do you have something official stating it isn't? I am still very confident it is medium blue which is very apparent under normal lighting. -
yes the old panels and new panels are not easily interchangeable. I had an idea to use the short piece #13/14 joined together as Dugald did in his Aston to make the longer piece. This likely would have worked until I just found out there is no #13/14 in blue either.

Thanks. I will try and have a look at this when I have time next week! It is an awesome upgrade!
-
I look forward to seeing if you can get the door to work! I personally think Medium blue and Black would look amazing.
-
Blue looks pretty awesome but poor implementation. I may have a go at it and use the equivalent size #17/18 panel with holes used on Williams F1 car. It will likely need changes to make it work tho. Maybe in 6 months after I build the three other queued up builds by you.

No official confirmation that I have seen yet but from the photos posted with the set under normal lighting with the boy and man it is medium blue for sure. -

As lvdh pointed out, the 3x11 will be available. We need to wait until the new year when we can order parts in larger quantities but I have started stocking up. Discuss more next week when we meet up at BP. -

Yep, I have no doubt @Lox Lego can do a supercar in medium blue now. I actually have been looking at some specs and seeing which Lego pieces would be perfect. I hope to convince him about that specific car when I see him. -

Not quite. Still missing the smallest panel and only one flex axle. Likely other pieces as well. It is an excellent jump forward to create a MOC with the medium blue. -

Looking at the pictures of the set with the people in more realistic lighting, I am positive it is medium blue.
