What I have read says skin tones have been added only where the minifig
characters are representing established characters .. star wars, HP,
spiderman I suppose if they were to do more sets. If the white guy is in
gaol then its because he is in whatever established fictional scene the set
is representing
I'm not endorsing the move - hell I'm in the keep minifigs smilin' campaign.
