Anthony.. in my conversations with our supplier that did the plastic injection molding.. they added different colored pellets to the mix for whatever color we wanted.. And as far as a different color/pellets changing the performance or lack thereof.. their opinion was no differences period..
There are definite differences in Miggle base performance even when it's the same style base.. and which "run" of bases it is.. That's basically because you just never know what those Chinese are gonna throw in the hopper..
I remember some discussions a few years ago about "virgin" plastic.. Our supplier for our application, only used new plastic (clear) and none of the recycled stuff...
So there are differences.. but it's more a difference in "runs" rather than color..
I think the color thing Miggle has going on is great.. LOL
I surely "have to have" the new colors when they come out..
