The colours and the letter-number is the Hasegawa code marking that clearly says which model is easy, which one is more difficult and which one has great details. Therefore the A, B, C, D and E letters. The digits next to the letters are the model number in the series.

Here the examples of the boxes for the same kit but released in different years.
