EF64 1006: Am I Missing Something Here?

[Davo Dentetsu]

Curious as to why MicroAce supply 1006 plates for their blue and white JRF EF64 1000s, yet the only pictures I can find...



Am I going nuts?  Or am I missing the obvious?  Did 1006 ever wear the JRF colours or is it a fictional MicroAce faux pas?

I've checked some of the photos and it seems that both 1005 and 1007 were repainted into JRF colors, but 1006 didn't. Actually allmost every other locomotive from this series have been repainted.

 

The newest image i could find is this, but this was taken 4 months ago:

How unusual.  Wonder if there are other examples of model makers getting it a bit worng now and again.
