Windsor & Newton artist watercolor half pan 24 color set light weight metal box set (japan import)

Q: Please list the colors included in the set.

I just received my set, 2/24/22. Here are the colors I was given: Lemon Yellow, Winsor Yellow, Transparent Yellow, Winsor Orange, Winsor Red, Permanent Crimson, Permanent Rose, Winsor Violet (Dioxazine), French Ultramarine, Winsor Blue (Green Shade), Olive Green, Permanent Sap Green, Winsor Green (Blue Shade), Cerulean Blue, Indanthrene Blue, Indigo, Burnt Sienna, Raw Sienna, Burnt Umber, Raw Umber, Yellow Ochre, Payne's Gray, Ivory Black, Chinese White. Regarding the lists customers have given, I didn't get Cobalt, Prussian Blue, Viridian, Indian Red, Aureolin, Indian Yellow, but I did get Transparent Yellow, Yellow Ochre, Winsor Green (Blue Shade), Olive Green, Permanent sap Green, Indanthrene Blue. Transparent Yellow looks very similar to Raw Sienna. Permanent Rose looks almost the same as Permanent Alizarin Crimson. I really wanted Hooker's Green!!

Q: How do you secure the watercolor pans inside of the case so they don't slide around?

If you remove the pans, then push the little metal bracket inward, it should require you to kind of snap the pan back into place. It should offer enough resistance to keep the pan from sliding around. Worse case scenario you could always use a little double sided tape underneath the pans, but just bending the brackets should do the trick.

Q: What does " Actual contents may vary" mean? Is the description of the contents not accurate such as the paint colors?

I ordered my 24-color set on 2/11/2020 and I received all the colors as described in the photo except for Viridian--I got Winsor Green instead.

Q: Is this a knock-off? it looks different on d. blick; the pan wrappings, the $42.88 price difference, etc. is it actually good quality?

I've seen different pan´s wrappers W & N in this box. I can not expand my opinion because I have not used my last purchase. The plastic basket should describe the color code W & N
