It must be out there somewhere. No store site lists it in their online catalog. Krylon doesn't list in their catalog. Five stores I've visited that Krylon says carry their line have not had it, including a three-story walmart!
I'm about to give up. I've seen the Celery around and while it isn't great, apparently it's close enough to be 'ok'.
Last night I decided to go with the single medium gray for the whole ship, but this morning I made a last ditch list and am going to check five more stores, grabbing the Celery at the first chance I have -just in case.
Could anyone who has found the colors and the alternates, spray a little on some plastic, (let it dry!), scan and post it? I've started a 'Swatch' thread under the D-7 for posting the scans there.
Let's start a master swatch of all the colors discussed here so that if anyone else can't find a color (or has a different preference), they will at least have a solid visual reference with which to mix a match or spot an variant at the store.
So far, I don't even think the gray I have is the right one, though it 'Testors' gloss gray', it's a 4 digit code, not the two digit Scott mentions earlier...
Thanks everybody!

Got back. What was I thinking? It's sunday! Even Sears was closed. But the next door walmart was open. Thinking I saw celery there yesterday, I went back but did not find it.
I did find Rustoleum's Sage which is now my final color. I just applied it to the Crown and parts of the body and it's looking quite acceptable!
EDIT: I removed the image of the cap as it is now in the Paint Swatch thread. See it there compared to other colors mentioned here as well!
