Crayola Special Brightest Collection Crayons: What's Inside the Box

The Crayola crayons Special Brightest Collection box is somewhat of a conundrum for me. At the time Crayola had fluorescent crayons. It does not include all the fluorescent crayons either. On the back it says, "This Special Brightest Collection gives you 24 of the brightest Crayola crayons together in one box." I do not know how they decided a crayon was bright, but there it is. 4 new colors, vivid violet, pink flamingo, caribbean green and sunset orange were introduced in this box and have New Color on their wrapper with streaks around the new color. I really like the design.
