I always thought:

Black - Commander (Because there’s so few of them) Blue - Lieutenant Yellow - Scientist (They always get the scanning gear/diggers) White - Mechanic/Worker Red - Pilot (You always get Red chaps with space ships)

(...) I wasen't around back then to get classic space guys. The most I have is 1 blue spaceman with a broken headpiece I got in the jambalya box. I wonder how you organize Futuron guys in... I have 5 Futuron guys- 2 yellow, 2 red, and 1 black. -JHK (21 years ago, 12-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
